it's impossible for me to sit at the computer and not listen to music.  tonight i discovered my "new band"...i'm sure you have heard of them b/c they play one of their songs nonstop on the radio...the lumineers.  but you really need to listen to their other music...starting w/ classy girls, big parade, and morning song.  i just bought the whole album b/c it's good....like friday night w/ a glass of wine and pinterest good.....

lately, i have been drawn to details...mostly in upholstery, pillow designs, and window treatments.  things that take an ordinary piece to the next level.  most of them are really simple: adding a contrast color for cording or as a banding on a solid upholstery piece,  using a mini flange (i love it w/ ruffle pleat corners) on pillows or chair cushions, adding a stripe (or pattern) fabric banding to simple roman shades or down the leading edge of panels give an extra oomph, or simply using another fabric on the backs of chairs adds an element of surprise to any space.   simple details like these make all the difference in the world!!  try one next time your thinking of updating a piece!!!

 it's spring break here and so i'm taking the kids to beaufort to visit my parents and to relax (my parent's screen porch is calling my name)!!  hoping that the weather stays nice enough for us to go to the beach and not freeze.....we love looking for shark's teeth.  i also plan on eating breakfast at lowcountry produce market (best ever and the interior design is to die for).

well hello weekend.  it's so nice to see you.....
i've been having a moment with this song....apparently taylor has too b/c she ask me to play it over and over again.
i want to make this tonight b/c it looks oh so good....to eat of course, while we watch the last homeland of season 1...dying over this show.  excited to still have season 2 to watch next!!

last night, warren and i started watching homeland.  my  mom and dad told me we would like it and it is good stuff!!  we only watched two but i was on the edge of my seat the entire time (probably b/c i am a scary cat and that stuff freaks me out)!  can't wait to watch more tonight!!  i hope y'all had a wonderful weekend!!  btw, brooke did a post on her favorite foods to cook and i made her salmon recipe...it was amazing!!!
