Loving a little pretty...




I'm not usually a huge fan of overtly "pretty" spaces...






but this bedroom, with it's fabulous floral ceiling,
rattan bed, and buttercup yellow trim
 is weekend-house-guest-room perfect,
isn't it?

Just need the weekend house to put it in :)

How was your weekend?

We had an 80th bday / family reunion for my dear sweet Dad,
a neighbourhood party,
and a bbq here with D's cousins...








busy, but the best part about summer is having a chance to visit with everyone, isn't it?

On the home front,

last week Tash's room went from black to white

(and I reaffirmed my love for a certain paint, 
which I will tell you about in the reveal)








and our back deck has morphed from old and weathered to non-existant :)







hopefully by next I will have some gorgeous finished spaces to show you!

  1. Love the floral ceiling in that first space, I can't imagine the job of installing it was fun though :).

    Looks like you have some huge changes going on around your house...can't wait to see how they turn out.

  4. Beautiful inspiration pic! We don't have too much in the way of girliness here since it's a houseful of boys, but I'd love a room like that.

    Can't wait to see the reveals on your big projects!
