T-H-A-N-K Y-O-U for every kind word, comment, message, e-mail, card, and prayer that was sent my way since we last “spoke”. I truly can’t tell you how much it means to me. More importantly, it all impressed my sweet grandpa—and that’s not easy to do.
I’ve had family here from all over the country, so you can imagine how much my creative time has been squelched. However, an ice storm on our 2nd day of spring (this is Michigan, after all) allowed me to do some much needed inspiration shopping.
Wanna see what I’ve got on the brain? Here are some snippets (click on pictures for the link)…
I KNOW, right? This neutral girl feels like she’s gonna break out into hives every time I think about buying these. But I’m drawn to them. Like a moth to the flame…
No, I won’t be doing this. I don’t think. It’s an absolute favorite of mine. I could look at it all day.
Couldn’t get a larger picture of it, but you get the idea. I’m pretty sure this cabinet is a couple thousand dollars. Uhhh…I won’t be spending that much.
She will be mine. And she will be mine soon. Do I really need to explain why? Dreamy.
And finally…my daughter wants a puppy for her birthday (in August!). Luckily, she wants one that tops out at 7 inches tall—the size of this guy’s ear.
Stuff is startin’ to happen around here, so I’ll be back to “normal” next week! Thank you for your patience!

Those drapes are magical.
I hope you are doing okay!
I do love that shower curtain too. I have a friend who made her own of that and it looks really complicated. So pretty though!

so happy to hear you're back!!! seriously.
and yes, the shower curtain is gorgeous. I made a laundry bag in the same style. Not too difficult to DIY.
So glad your back, I love those curtains. Blue is my favorite color but I am afraid to commit to color so I stick to neutrals most of the time. I will be watching to see what you do.
By the way I LOVE Maximus and every time you have a post of him I show it to my husband and tell him I want a dog like him. Then my husband reminds me I have two dogs and how much Maximus eats. Still I love him from a distance.

Just love the drapes! Mimi x
Good to see you're back…
Lots of inspirations and goodies to look forward in this place again ♥
Love everything about that bathroom. And those lamps on that cabinet are gorgeous. Oh my, I see lots of Maximus tales coming when that new puppy takes over!
Those drapes are gorgeous!!
I've missed Maximus! 🙂
OOOOH, I love the shower curtain with all the ruffles!
I doubt my guys would be thrilled about it, though. lol
I'm thrilled I discovered your blog.
WIll continue to keep you in prayer.
It sounds like your Grandpa is doing OK. I'm glad. And I like the ruffled shower curtain.
Welcome back and thanks for the lovely images. So….are we getting a puppy? Are we? Are we?
LOVE the ceiling in that bathroom! Sorry to hear about your loss.
So glad you're back! Love the trelis painted wallpaper. I want to do that so badly, just don't know where yet. Great inspiration!
I am so sorry for your recent loss, I am very close to my grandmother as well (although we have a huge family) I cannot imagine what you have gone through in the last few days.
On a lighter note I love love love and adore that shower curtain!
I found your blog a couple of weeks ago while looking at some fabulous cupcakes on Saucy's Sprinkles. I read a couple of posts at work and got hooked. Instead of getting fired I looked you up from home that evening and have since read Every. Single. Post!! I have also tackled 2 projects since I started reading! YAY me! Thanks for all the inspiration!
I'm IN LOVE with that ruffle curtain!
Yep, I want all of it too. I love the wallpapers. Awesome. If only I could do it…

I'm so glad things are goin again for you. I've been checking in every couple of days, praying for you each time. Take care!
Love the drapes!
As for pets, what about a Munchkin cat? They are a newer breed with very short legs (hence the name). I bought one ten years ago and they make great pets. The Munchkins are great with kids, good lap cats and are smart.
Hi Chris,
I'm glad your grandpa is coping all right; I'm sure the love of his family is making things much easier.
I love your wish list, esp. those sapphire drapes. They are gorgeous! Please do yourself a favor and talk to a custom drapery workroom before you buy silk drapes off the rack. A good drapery studio will not cost much more than "store-bought" panels, but the worksmanship and durability will be well worth any additional cost!

welcome back!
wow those drapes look amazing.
we didnt get the ice as much as we got pounded with snow up her in the northern LP.
we are thinking about getting our daughter a dog for her birthday as well. only my husband doesnt like the small dogs and is leaning towards a chocolate lab.
Glad to see you are back. Can't wait to see what you've got up your sleeve;)
I Love, Love, Love that ruffle shower curtain. My condoloences to you and the family. Take care and I look forward to more of your fabulous creations.
