Spring has almost sprung! {Toast Spring '09}

Only 16 days to go! I'm not sure if I can wait even that long! It's been a loooonnnnggg winter, with much to much snow. Can you feel it yet? The air is starting to feel different lately, the sun is out more often than not, and my winter boots are almost begging me for a break!

I received the new Toast catalog this week, and I'm drooling over their pages, and they area radiating sunlight. This catalog always cheers me up, regardless of the season.








Can you feel the spring breeze now?

i did this {do not leave unattended}

Wow. I finally finished my contribution to the "Do Not Leave Unattended" project.

There's more, you'll just have to wait until Judy posts it on their site, here.



This is the first time I've completed anything like this in YEARS. Probably close to 20 years now.

I fully intend on doing more.

Home Office Thoughts {aka dining room}

Hmm....

I've been browsing through my Flickr favorites today, as i'm trying to come up with some inovative ways to decorate/set up our mutual dining room/home office. This picture just stood out, what do you think?


image by O!Rachew!

I could not only use each clipboard as a to-do list, but maybe also a calender, or to just post inspiration photos.

What do you think? Too much? Or any other idea's like this?

Hmmm. I'm still thinking.

DecorAddict needs your help! {and happy weekend!}

I emailed AT today, as I'm truly at a loss. My hubby and I recently purchased a
Malm King size bed from, but I can't decide on nightstands.....trying to shy away from the Malm nightstands....as I think they go too well. Know what I mean?

You can see the thread, and comment here!



Looking forward to seeing every one's suggestions, and I just can't seem to find anything that goes, or that I like so far.
