And Now Back to Our Show...

Hello Blogland!  I have been away for what seems a very long time.  I had a lovely spring break getaway with my Husband and his family last week.  Now I am desperately trying to play catch-up to everything that got dropped while I was away.

Now that the pollen is in full bloom (as are my allergies, yuck!) and our yard is actually green (hallelujah!) I'm starting to think about outside projects again.  Let's pretend that this is really what the house and garden look like.

This, of course, is Wendy Posard's home from the March 2008 Cottage Living.  It's been all over for a long time now but I'm still pretending that it's mine.  I guess I should treat myself to a new pair of gardening gloves and get to work!

Friday Inspiration

So I'm still playing catch up from my busy/fun week but I wanted to post a little something.  It's been awhile since I've had a Friday Inspiration so today this is what I've been thinking about:

Light Filled Spaces!!  Though I love our sweet little house in the woods I dream about sun drenched rooms.  The example above is a pretty great one.  It has all those windows, a perfect muted palette and a great mix of pieces (the painted chest and floors, the great print on the wingback chairs, the lovely long panels that call back to the sofa, and that amazing portrait on top of that rustic cabinet)  I want to be there instead of my dark office in front on a computer all day.  Happy Friday everyone.  I hope you can catch a little sun on this lovely fall day.
