I have this thing… when my husband goes out of town I tear a room apart and re-do it. He went to Atlanta for two weeks recently and I redid our bedroom. In this post I’m sharing the wall treatment. Anyway, I’ll start with the walls…They REALLY needed spruced up. It had been [...]
I keep walking past these stupid squirrel lawn ornaments at work. Every time I walk by I think “zebra”. I don’t know why. (I never know where those kinds of thoughts come from or WHY..I keep telling everyone that it’s scary inside my head but they just don’t believe me.) Anyway, I just had this huge [...]
I don't know about you but there is no "pick me up" in the world like going to get your hair washed, cut and styled. When I'm in a bit of a rut it is just the thing to perk me back up again. The salon where I usually go,Carol Martin's in Tallmadge, has relocated. It's [...]
Here is a slide show of flowers from July 4th wedding number 2. I’m still working on details with bride number 3 for that day. I just took these pictures real quick before I took them to deliver. I almost forgot to take pictures all together so they are taken on an old bench by [...]

Because the 4th of July will be on a Saturday this year it is turning out to be a big day for weddings. I've got three that I'm working on now. One is a destination wedding and the other two are outdoors. The brides feel that "permanent botanicals" will hold up better/longer for an outdoor [...]
Do you remember the television show "Fantasy Island"? In the beginning Hervé Villechaize …Tattoo would run up the main bell tower to ring the bell and shout "The plane! The plane!" to announce the arrival of a new set of guests at the beginning of each episode. We live near where the Goodyear blimp docks [...]
I tried out some pears this afternoon that the neighbor gave us last week that she had canned in the fall. YUM-O! She’s what I consider a Mega Mom. You know, ultra involved, 4 daughters, church, DH, ducks, chickens she home schools, leads a 4-H group thrives on crazy caos and is probably the best neighbor I’ve ever lived next [...]
