I’m on vacation this week, and spending some time cleaning and freshening up a couple of rooms. I’ve been hacking away at my master bedroom, slowly but surely.

Nothing like watching an episode of Hoarders to jump start the spring cleaning bug.
And that, my friends, . . . → Read More: design vacation – keeping it real in the master bedroom

I’m on vacation from my job this week and decided that I’m taking a design vacation. Not a vacation from design. A vacation to design.
Seems that my house has gotten a little out of control. Same goes for my project list.
Conveniently, I found out that I was grandfathered in to an old . . . → Read More: design vacation & giveaway

In addition to house goals for 2012, I also have a couple of blog goals that I want to make happen. Soon.

About a year ago, I found this ottoman in my neighbor’s trash…

2012 may be the year of the dragon on the Chinese calendar, but in my world it’s the year of the blog.

Now that we’ve rung in the new year, it’s time to set some goals for 2012…house goals!
Last year was the first time I set house goals, although I was probably a bit too ambitious with my 2011 goals!
Not to be outdone by myself, I’ve set equally if not more ambitious house goals . . . → Read More: house goals – 2012 edition
