Slacker...

Ok so I have reallly really been slacking :( I left off on Day 17 like 9 days ago...eek! I am going to pick back up today with topics 18-20 and then will hopefully catch up and finish by the end of next week. I haven't even really been super busy, just exhausted and enjoying this fall weather!

Day 18: My FUTURE Wedding

Just like the decorating of the dream house I could probably spend hours on this topic and could go from either a really really casual setting to uber chic and ritzy. I did this really fast so I am sure I forgot some of my best ideas but enjoy!

What do you think??

Day 19: A Talent of Mine

A talent of mine would have to be my creativity. I love to be creative and have a lot of fun shopping around picking out things - even if it is for something really far in the future!

Day 20: A Hobby of Mine

 

I love interior design and mostly everything ballard designs! I just could spend hours in Michael's or Hobby Lobby. I really want to get into making wreaths..cute ones for each of the holidays.

Day 17...Piece of Art

It's not really art but when I was in high school someone introduced me to cigar labels and it has now become something I really enjoy looking at and purchasing at times. Tampa is a big cigar city and I feel like it is a way of keeping Tampa in my life even if I am 7 hours away. Here are some I have my eye on right now...

This weekend we are headed to Tallahassee for the game. I am SO excited! I cannot wait to get back to Tallahasee and see football in person! Go Noles!!

My Dream House...Continued...

I have so many rooms left to decorate!!

Dining Room

Living/Family Room

Fabric:

I would definitely use the fabric in place of the stripes or as my pattern - and in the second one i would have to have a much more neutral colors.

Master Bedroom:

Day 16

Song That Makes You Cry

Butterfly Kisses - makes me think of me and my dad and happy/sad at the same time.

You Tube Version

Days 14 & 15

Day 14: A Non-Fictional Book

My favorite non-fictional book would have to be Marley & Me. I loved the book and the movie equally and cry on command each and every time I see it.

Day 15: My Dream House



I love decorating, designing, everything home-centered. When I get my southern living magazine every month I probably spend a good 10-15 minutes looking at the home plans pages. I could seriously do this every day. I love it. I love picturing my dream house and everything that would go into it - as realisic and unrealistic as I want it to be. Did you know they have a whole magazine dedicated to house plans?!?!

Here's a little glimpse into my dream...

The Weatherton

"An attractive, homey shingle exterior softens the look of this grand home. Inside, French doors open to the dining room from the front porch, giving you the option of serving after-dinner drinks outside. The nearby island kitchen is the perfect working space for creating fabulous meals. The spacious breakfast room includes a stylish bow window. Behind small double doors, an alcove joins the kitchen to a handy utility room and a half-bath. Both the family room and the formal living room include handsome fireplaces to warm any occasion. Nicely secluded on the main floor, the master bedroom has a vaulted ceiling and an exceptional private bath. A bonus space on the upper floor would work well as a playroom, complementing the three sizable secondary bedrooms. "

And what would go into it (Room by Room of course..)

Entry Way

(I am obsessed - this has actually been the background on my computer for a month..)

Mud-Room

I have to have a mud room. End of story. It will also be this organized.

Laundry Room

Must Have List:

• Drying Rack
• Side by Side
• Granite Countertops

Kitchen

I am having way too much fun with this post! I will have to finish off my dreams tomorrow with the bedrooms and bathrooms of my dream house!!

Days 12 & 13

Day 12: Something You Are OCD About..

I am OCD about a few things but the number one thing I am OCD about is keeping my planner up to date. I love my Lilly agenda book. I like having the monthly views and the daily views --- It comes with stickers which I am not such a bag fan of but I love looking in my purse and seeing the bright colors!

 Day 13: Ficitional Book

We have definitely already covered this topic but I love Nanny Diaries, Something Borrowed/Something Blue, Devil Wears Prada, Chasing Harry Winston, Everyone worth Knowing, etc..etc...

I just found out that the author of Devil Wears Prada and the last two I mentioned came out with a new book, "Last Night at Chateau Marmont"

I will definitely be picking up a copy soon. But while we are on the topic of books, guess what I purchased yesterday!?!?



True Prep: Brooks Brothers Edition

I will let you know what I think of it as soon as I have had a chance to dive in...



Day 11: Recent Photo
