I had a few Willow House gals over for a meeting earlier this week. This is the first time I've opened my home since the surgery. We had a few snacks, shared tips and had plenty of laughs. I wish I had taken pictures while they were here, but I was too busy running my ...
Best Dressed Harvest Door
Y'all know I have a passion for well-dressed doors. BBC and I didn't get a harvest door up this year so we've been stalking the neighbors for ideas for next year. This is by far the best dressed harvest door I've ever seen. It is so cheery and warms my heart every time we drive ...
Tastefully Spooky Decor
My friend Chas has done it again. She is the queen of tastefully spooky home decor. This year she was inspired by the headless horseman. He's even standing watch over her door to greet guests! (Remember: you can click on the pictures to enlarge the view.)Here's a closer look. I love all the details she ...
Halloween Mantel 2011
I'm still playing catch up around here and BBC is still encouraging me to get the Halloween decorations up. Here's the mantel just in time for the weekend. I do it all for him (OK so I do it for me, too). BBC has actually been quite helpful in providing inspiring ideas this year. I never ...
Halloween Door 2011
I'm still not quite back to my creative self, yet. BBC has been on my case about not having any fall or halloween decorations up, yet (can you say spoiled). Last week I had an idea pop into my head for a cheerfully spooky forest.We started our project by gathering perfectly weathered and spooky branches ...
Keeping it Real with SFG
I had to have emergency surgery about three months ago to remove a basketball-sized cyst from my abdomen. I also ended up needing a total abdominal hysterectomy with complications. Needless to say it has been a rough few months. I haven't had my normal creative mojo and I was beginning to think they removed that during ...
My Big Second Grader
Today is a bittersweet day - the first day of school. Can I get a witness? Here's my handsome boy all settled in and ready to go. I pray he and all the other kids, teachers, and administrators across Arkansas (and elsewhere) have a fabulous first day of school.What's going on with you today?~Southern Fried Gal
Cool Pool Time with BBC
My incision is finally healed enough to get into the pool. It's a nice way to relax, do a few exercises, and cool off. Last night DH wasn't feeling well so BBC and I had a mom/son date in the pool. It started with a lot of showing off on his part.Look at the height ...
Still On The Mend
It is officially eleven weeks since surgery and I still feel like I'm on the mend. I started back to work (half days) a couple of weeks back. I still tire by mid afternoon. I cooked dinner twice last week - woo hoo. My mantel and door decor hasn't changed at all since the surgery ...
The Adventures of Flat Carmella: Willow House 2011 Convention
Flat Carmella made it safely to the Willow House 2011 Convention in Atlanta, GA. Kim, Shea and Bridget took very good care of her. She was met with love and support from other Style and Dream Star Sisters. The product showcase was filled with creative ideas for simply good design. My heart goes pitter-patter for this ...
