    I happened upon your site and was delighted. Love your color palate, ideas and I especially love your use of dried hydrangeas! Thank you for sharing.

    I have a sample of the Graham Brown beadboard wall paper. I want to use it on my kitchen ceiling. My wallpaper guy thinks the paper should be trimmed to the “grove” so seams don’t shoe. Do you think that is necessary? Have you used this on a ceiling?
    Thank you!

      Hi, Kathryn, I haven’t used it on a ceiling, but I would think on a flat ceiling it would be just like on a wall, so I wouldn’t trim it. I’d install it as it is. The seams are hardly noticeable once it’s up and painted. I’d go ahead and paint it and that fills in those small seams for the most part.

    Hello! So happy to have stumbled upon your website and blog. (Thank you, Pinterest!) We just bought a new house and I have a lot of “re-doing” ahead of me! Your style and my style seem to mesh perfectly, so, I will be using your blog as a reference, I am certain! My new house, too, is a 1970’s contemporary style home that I am so anxious to make mine/ours. I say, ours, as I need to include my DH and recently added three grandchildren ranging in ages from 10 -15. Oiiiieeeeee!!! LOL….oh well…let’s just say it will be a family project full of “labor with Love!

    Discovered your blog via Walking in His Grace blog/Facebook post! Love your sense of style and as a 50-something, I know I will thoroughly enjoy following. We are about to move from Oklahoma to Kauai where the hydrangea’s grow in the wild…prolifically…along with 150+ varieties of hibiscus! Can you tell I will be one very happy beach girl?! Can’t wait to get there! Mahalo for your inspiration! http://www.thebeachyquilter.wordpress.com

    I discovered your blog on Pinterest. Can you tell me where you found the mercury glass candle holders that you displayed the Christmas ornaments on? I have recently started collecting mercury glass, Ijust love it!! Do you know who or where might carry an assortment of items?
    Thank you so much for your inspiration.

      Hi, Paula, I’ve gotten mercury glass at several places. Try Homegoods for sure, they usually have some nice things.

    Just ran across your blog on tearing off carpet on stairs. I’ve been wanting to do this but afraid to try, but after looking at what you did I just may give it a go for.

    Where did you get the totes you monogrammed? They are lovely, looking for something like that for my daughters luncheon.

      Susie, I’m sure my niece got them online. I’ll have to ask her but it’s been 4 years ago.

    Hi Rhoda. Just discovered your website on Pinterest and am so happy I did. At the moment, my house desperately needs ‘curb appeal’, and there you were! I definitely got inspiration from looking at the photos, and saved one that seems to be right for my own home. I look forward to perusing your site in future…Thanks!

    Glad to run into your blog. I shall be moving to the Atlanta area just as soon as my house sells here in Lexington, VA. I shall be joining my daughter who has already made the move and we will be sharing a rented home until we each make the decision as to just where we want to live. Her business practice is in
    Sandy Springs so we are concentrating on a 25 mile radius from there.

    Once I am settled in my little condo, I plan to use some of your ideas – most especially the bead board wall paper.

    Best, Irene

    For some reason my name was dropped from your bloglist. I have been a subscriber for over a year, but suddenly realized I hadn’t been receiving anything from you for several weeks. Please reinstate me because I really enjoy your blog.

      HI, Barbara, I have no idea how that could have happened as I never delete any names. Did you try adding your email in my subscribe box above? Hope that works for you!
