One HOT day this June I was asked to cover this fabulous party for a fabulous, did I say fabulous florist/designer ~ Michael Hernandes of Simple Flowers of Modesto. Of coarse I jumped at the chance … his work is always fresh and new….a real treat to shoot! Love all of the beach balls! Makes me want to jump in! Hot pink and tangerine….cool color combo! Fruit adding great pops of color-clever!
Totally being inspired by Pinterest I set out to update Calvin’s room to be more age appropriate-He is 12 going on 20. Out with all the stuffed animals….(200 Penguins to be exact-watching them exit was like watching March of the Penguins) out with the airplanes and sailboats…and in with the new. Thanks to Mimi she scored the HUGE coke sign and gifted it to Calvin for Christmas. It was the inspiration piece for the room. My handyman husband was tasked with making a new headboard for Calvin….I just love what he did! His job is never done next up was the valence. Calvin picked his wall color paint colors…I think he did great! Visiting my FAVORITE store….Vintage Market I found this cool locker in The Aviary section of the store…it was PERFECT for the room. Calvin really wanted a desk for his room so we came up with the saw horse idea…handyman husband did it again! Thanks Craig. Craig, Calvin and I hit an AWESOME estate sale where we scored the red dresser and LOTS of accessories for his room….Calvin thinks he is a picker. ( He does have a good eye!) Even Baxti likes it! Sorry…no before shot taken….it was toooooo embarassing! […]

Has is really been that long since I wrote??? October???…time flies when your having fun! I did start a blog at Christmas and it just got pushed aside due to all of the other stuff that made its way to the to do list… here is my attempt to back track… If any of you have not signed up to Pinterest….can I say you are missing out…MISSING OUT BIG TIME! Pinterest is candy to a creative soul…less the calories…No really- What is Pinterest? It is a way to search the web for ANYTHING based on images….not just keywords. So for those of you who are like me and feel a picture is worth 1,000 words here is the solution …. no more searching the web for curtains only to find 100,000 of text entries and leads with images buried in a website. Now…if you are just joining Pinterest…BEWARE…get ready to be inspired to change EVERYTHING:) One day on Pinterest I set out to look for curtain panels…..now I just purchased some beautiful panels from Anthropologie but decided I wanted a change. It was getting close to Christmas and I was about to put up my tree. I could not bring […]
