That chair!!!!


Last week when I shared my new pillow with everyone I got a ton of emails inquiring as to where I got that chair.

Well, the truth is….it is the same chair I have had for several years. I actually have a pair of them and was using them in the master bedroom until recently when I decided to switch the chairs around.

Peaceful Sunday……

 

Old Church Window.   I have the 3 to 1 ratio windows, and am periodically tempted to do some faking on the inside to get this look.

A new pillow……


I ordered this little pillow the other day…..
I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived because it matches
my drapes in the room perfectly.

The embroidery is so pretty ……..
and I love the piping done in just a little darker shade grey.

That is Love

Love is a strange and beautiful thing,
It spans time and space, distance is no object to love.
You will wait forever for the one you love,
Travel wherever you need to be with them.
When you are in the arms of the one you love,
That love can make a moment last a lifetime,
Yet make a lifetime seem no more than a moment.
When love is distant it grows strong,
When it returns it flowers.
People crave it, strive for it, fight for it, and die for it,
And when they find it, they know they are complete.
For in the arms of the one we love is wholeness,
Belief, completeness, passion, and security.
The one we love is someone for whom we would do anything,
And never ask for anything in return.
It produces a love of all that person is and will ever be,
Regardless of what that may mean to me.
Love knows that when you are away,
That you are still loved, cherished, thought after, and missed
By the one you love,
And they know that you love them back.
That is Love.

Love is like a gentle breeze
that cascades through your entire being,
filling every fiber with emotion so deep
your heart grows wings.

TGIF!!!!

 
The weekend is finally here…….and what a week it has been!
Our heat is still broken but the frigid temps have passed at least.
With the day of romance fast approaching I
thought it would be appropriate to show a few rooms in red.

Baby it’s cold….inside!



we walked to see winter branches

Do you hear that? It’s my teeth chattering…..our heating system is down and the temps are in the single digits!!!!! Why is it the thing always breaks down when it is frigid outside?

A little chair makeover…….



chair3

I bought a set of these cute little French chairs to use in my dining room but I ended up using something else instead. So since I needed a chair in the guest bedroom one found a spot there.
I sort of forgot to snap a before photo so I took this right before I started working on the chair.
