After we Dig out from under the Rubble

Well we are all moved in to the new house, and s...l...o...w...l...y... we are getting settled.  First was the big clean, remodeling sure does make a lot of dirt and dust!  :-)  Then there was the shuffling around of all our stuff, which is still in piles trying to find homes.  Now we are working on the details, lights, hardware, door knobs, etc.  But soon enough, hopefully, I will get to decorate, hang pictures, mirrors, sort out kids bedding, design a cool playroom, you get the point.  So I've been scouring (what's new) ideas and have decided on these rooms for inspiration.  I can't say enough how much these talk to me...love love love these rooms, and they are all from the same house, how can I meet this interiors equal?!  I would sure love to have a coffee with her and talk shop!  Until then, I will share with you the inspiration for my living room, the girls' room and playroom.  I love the clean white with pops of color.  I think my interpretation may be a little more shabby chic but we shall see...it's this stuff that charges my engine!  Hope to show you my own rooms soon! 

This will work great for my girls' room, they are sharing a space now and I'd like to keep it really clean with pops of pink, yellow and black.
I found an identical floor cushion at Urban Outfitters
Oh my goodness, love love love love love the texturing on this wall. I am so doing something like this behind our bed.
Not sure I will do anything like this but it's super fun. What a cute little nook! Rhys' nursery is going to be pretty darn cute, can's wait to show you.
I've been working on a little black frame wall for a while now...this is a cute one..
My living room...uh er I mean it will be! So cute. My couch is white but other than that, I can do this...
Love...

Much Needed Break and a Blessed New Year

Happy New Year!
Since my last post, not only did I completely renovate a new home, move myself and family, I celebrated during the holiday the birthdays of my three children in December, my oldest turned 4, second turned 2 and our new addition came into our lives and blessed our family with his safe arrival.  Needless to say, I've been and am extremely busy, but I'm ready to get back on the saddle, at least part time. :-)  Oh how I've missed Maeve James!  I can 't wait to show you the new cottage abode, some of the renovations, and my vision for it's future design...on a budget!  :-)  Oh the fun we will have!  So anyhow, Happy New Year, may the year be filled with love, fortune, and fun!

Peace,
Jill

The Best Cottage Rest Stops

Loving these adorable cottage restroom getaways.  They don't look like someone came in and a week later wah lah!  Even if they are they look like pieces of art that have grown, changed and beautified over time...

This flooring is a good compromise to my beloved honeycomb tile that I love so much... the rest of the bathroom I could do without.

Love the floor in the bathroom in the background.  It's a larger honeycomb design.

As much as I love the horizontal wide wood wall planks this could be a good compromise.

This tile is interesting...I'm still on the fence with it but it's very pretty.
