Remember when I blogged about helping P-Dub renovate/re-decorate her upstairs? Well, she's been a super busy gal lately with the release of her second cookbook...
...so obviously she's had a different type of RANCH on her brain lately- ha!
She did receive the Dash & Albert runners I used in my presto change-o...
Today's a bit of a smorgasbord post. A little bit of everything...even Chuck E. Cheese pizza.
(PS- There are 5 questions for you throughout this bad boy, too. If you feel like responding to any of them, I'd love to hear from you!)
My android phone bit the dust a couple of weeks ago, so Kev and I decided...
3 things I love about Kit-Cat:
1. His sense of adventure.
Unfortunately I'm forced to interrupt the adventure from time to time, but I usually can't resist snapping a photo of him first.
2. His paws.
I could rub them for hours. Literally. Because he lets me. (I love that about him too.)
If you've...
Dear Stef, TamiK, OsageGypsy, HelloHahaNarf, and CottageByTheSea, You said you liked my wonky "O", so I thought I'd skooch it back down to where I found it resting the other day... What do you think? Hot glue to the rescue, or wonky wins?
I had sort of a weird/down day yesterday, so I decided to change my situation and carve out a day just for good times. A day for dirty hands and a clean soul.
I started with a walk in the park- which reminded me that I really must get outside more often while the weather is so nice absolutely perfect. March is...
Quick heads up to remind y'all about Rhoda's Spring door decor link party today!
We haven't had time to deck out any of our doors yet this year, but we did have fun with the ones in the photo above last year. (Links: Yarn wreath how-to and Seaside Sisters)
Did you blog about deckin' out your door this Spring?...
Our kitchen is still one big work-in-progress, but we have had fun personalizing it, little by little, over the past few years. It started out pretty builder basic...
...but with a little bit of shoestring-style dough, and whole lotta elbow grease, we're slowly but surely making it feel more "ours"...
We...
Kate's hosting a Spring craft link party over at her blog today, so I thought I'd link up the soda crate project I had fun putting together the other day for our Spring mantel display...
I started with an old Coca-Cola soda crate...
...and this cast iron "Antiques" plaque I picked up at Hobby Lobby for $4.99...
Our master bedroom is still very much a work in progress, but here are a few things we've had fun doing to the space since we moved in back in 2007...
The room started out pretty builder basic...
...but we've been busy injecting more of our personality over the past few years...
Here are some links to some...
Hello- and welcome to our first "Spring Fling" link party!
We're kicking things off with a mantel/shelf/ledge link party here on our blog today, and Kate, Rhoda, and Sarah will be hosting some more Spring-themed parties on their blogs on March 22nd, 27th and 29th!
I always look forward to Spring cleaning/decorating....
Hey there- and welcome to another installment of Pick My Presto!
I randomly selected another email from my Pick My Presto inbox this weekend, and had some fun photoshoppin' a picture of a bathroom sent in by a reader named Nicki.
Her email read:
Please help! We are about to list our early '80s ranch home for...
Kev and I are coming up on wedding anniversary #8 this June, and I'd love to take a breather and sneak off somewhere (inexpensive and close to home) with him for a couple of days.
Back in '04, we honeymooned a few hours down the road, on the Florida gulf coast. We stayed in a cute, little cottage (that's no longer...
Want to incorporate a sliding door somewhere in your house? Me too! Freaked out by the price of barn door hardware? Me too! But check it out, I received an email from a sweet gal named Brier this week, and she and her hubby figured out an easy way to get the look for less. Check it out...
"Hi Layla, my name is Brier...
I've got an e-friend named Deborah who is, hands down, one of the sweetest people I've ever e-met. Her blog (FairfieldHouseNJ.com) is always a pleasure to read, and one of her latest posts was about a "necessary room" they recently redecorated in their home. Here's a before and after look at the room...
They...
Howdy! Just a quick post to invite you over to Kevin and Josh's ShootFlyShoot blog today. Kev published a post about a couple of interior photo-taking tips, so if you're interested in reading about that kind of stuff, click on his photo below to check it out! Happy Thursday!
Ya know that swing-arm wall sconce in our reading room? We got it for a great deal on eBay, but it was actually a Pottery Barn product.
PB has discontinued it from their website and catalogs, and they don't really seem to pop up on eBay that often anymore, so I thought I'd see if I could do some e-snoopin' around...
Hey there- and welcome to another installment of Pick My Presto!
I randomly selected another email from my PMP inbox this weekend, and had some fun photoshoppin' a picture of a kitchen sent in by a sweet reader named Cindy. Here's the photo she sent me...
Her email read:
Hi Layla,
My kitchen is a new, builder-grade...
Well, the results are in , and we're feeling pretty humbled that 444 folks cast votes for us over at the Apartment Therapy "Homie Awards" this week...
Y'all landed our little, lettered love up in the Home Design Blog Finals!
Voting ends on Friday, March 9th at 3pm (EST), so we'll see what happens. We were...
Exciting e-news!
Me and the guys are putting the finishing touches on ShootFlyShoot.com this weekend, and it'll be up and running this coming Monday morning!
It's been a looooong process, and I'm so excited it's almost ready to rumble! What started out as a text message between friends last year, is now a fully-functional...
