Nautical Breeze and a long awaited hello...

Hi there my precious loved ones!

It certainly has been a mighty long time. Some of you may be wondering "Where
did you go?" Well, to be perfectly honest, blogging was taking up so much of my
time that I lost sight of my priorities. I'm sure many of you can relate.

Yes I am back today but only with the promise of today. I've decided to dedicate only minimal
spare time to my blogging projects. Hopefully this doesn't seem too unfair to you. I'm torn because I
find that when I'm away, my inspiration for home design falls to wayside. I do miss it.
However, I was letting more important things collect dust.

I gave some of your blogs a quick run through (and I have many more to go)...You all seem to
doing well and your blogs, homes, families are lovelier than ever!

Since it has been ages since I've browsed,
I decided that the warming weather and sweet breeze has me aching for the coast.
So why not hop right back in with some nautical influences?

It just makes me sigh with relief.....aaaaaaaah.

Greens and blues take me away to that happy place.

Navy blue bottles make me swoon. Or and is that dyed water? Hmmmm...

If only I could be this lucky...


Don't you just love it when you are inspired by the most insignificant objects?

Or how sand and a few candles can make you smile?

Even the simplest kitchen can make you imagine the most pleasant dream
for your home (like the painted screen door for a pantry and mosaic tile counter tops).

There is nothing that can't be created, and no one that can't be inspired.
Have a happy day!

Crisp Autumn Days...

There is nothing like sitting on a porch with a fuzzy throw and a warm cup of coffee watching the leaves fall from the teas.  It's a taster's choice moment if you will.  This morning I woke up to a crispness in the air (and a wheezing in my lungs) that reminded me that Autumn is on my doorstep.  I think it's time to purchase a new coat and scarf : )
 Of course I have to include pictures of decor consisting of warm fall colors...
I'd love to sit there and snuggle up with a book!

I fell in love with these french doors in this deep green.  It's so charming.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to cuddle up today.
