Random Wintery Touches

Hi there peeps, I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and let's hope that things 

will start looking up again for our world in 2021!

I wanted to share some wintery shots around our house. 

Let's take a look at the kitchen nook.

A cozy little Christmas Tour

Are you ready for a little cozy Christmas Tour?

Well hello there and welcome to our home. I want to share some Christmas pictures

with you, this will be part 1 of 2. I need to take more pics of the kitchen, 

living and dining room this week. 

Christmas Snap Shots Around The House

Merry Merry Christmas everyone! I know by the time this post goes live 

it will be too late to wish you a Merry Christmas but technically as I am typing this 

post late Tuesday night (on Christmas Day) it still counts!!!

I was running really late decorating, gift-wrapping, cooking, etc this year, so this post 

is also late....you might all be totally done looking at Christmas Decor pictures by now, 

but heyyyy it's still winter, right?

Here is a little corner in the kitchen nook, I love this vintage crate with a demijohn I found

a few years ago. Looks amazing with string lights for all seasons.

2016 in Review

Hello and Happy New Year and all the best to all of you!!! Another year has gone by 

so fast and here we are in 2017.

We still have family over from Germany, so it's been a little slow on my blog 

and I am wayyyyy behind on catching up on reading everybody else's  blogs.

I typed up this quick post last night with a look back of my top posts from 2016. This might
give you a chance to catch up on some posts you might have missed during the year.

Christmas House Tour At Little Brags

Hello and Merry Christmas to you all !!! I have been so busy this last week, I figure I better share 

these Christmas pictures on the blog here before Christmas is over in a couple of days....LOL

You can also see a Christmas video tour of our house here. 

Well, it is getting late already and I still have a few more things to do before bed time! 

So here we go, I will make this really quick with little words....

Enjoy and please pin away with ideas for  next Christmas!!! 

Here is the Family Room

Little Brags On Instagram

Hello and Happy Sunday Loves, I wanted to share a few new pics from my Instagram page with you that I did not post on my blog yet, so making sure you all know about my Instagram page and would love it it you follow me there as well!!!!! I find it very challenging to keep all the social media stuff updated all the time, I am a total slacker on Twitter, but I usually remember to post on Instagram on a regular basis. 

So of you are not following me on Instagram yet, I would 

love it if you did!!!!! 

Enjoy some new snapshots around the family room.

As you can probably tell in the pictures I am definitely doing the 

Moroccan-Boho thing!!!! LOL

A Few New Things Around The House

Hello friends, it's been a bit quiet around the blog this summer. We took a family trip in July and I hardly spend any time on the computer. Things are back to normal, but it seems to me that I will be playing "bloggy reading catch up" for a long time. 

I wanted to share some new things around the house with you. For those of you that follow my blog, you know I have been painting our kitchen and family room this summer. With the new paint color came some re-decorating and I also picked up a few new things. My taste has changed so much this year and I need to take it slow and give a lot of thought to what I want to invest time and money for. 

Well, let's get to the fun part Amiga's (and Amigo's), here are some pictures for you!!!! Here is a wall in our kitchen nook. My friend Michi got me this cute window frame a while back, I wrapped some stringlights around it, I love the combination of the rich gray wall color and the pop of white from the lights.

Been Busy Painting

Hi there and Happy Weekend Loves, it's been a bit quiet on my blog for 

the last couple of weeks. But I have a good excuse. I have been 

busy painting our family room, kitchen and kitchen nook. 

I am hoping to finish up today and take a painting break before 

I attack the dining room next.

Here is a sneak peak of the progress.....

The Family Room used to be RED and BEIGE. It is now GRAY.....a beautiful 

rich accent color GAUNTLET GRAY by Sherwin Williams and  

AMAZING GRAY by Sherwin Williams.

A New Moroccan Pouf And More Fresh Paint

Hello and Happy Sunday Loves, I wanted to share a couple of new things 

happening in our family room with you. 

First off, I ordered this awesome 

Moroccan pouf from World Market and I luv it !!!!!

SNEAK PEAK of new paint color in our Family Room

Hi Cuties, I want to share with you what I was up to last weekend. I finally painted 

the accent walls in our family room. For those of you that have been following 

my blog for a while, you know I have been sick of the "ginger red" accent walls 

we had in the family room. I hate painting, so I lived with it for much longer than I should have. 

Sharing My Sweet Friends BEFORE AND AFTER Home Tour

Today I want to share a dear friend's house with you. 

My friend was very tired of her decor style and ask me to 

help re-decorate various rooms in her house

She didn't really know where to even start and what style she wanted.

So I put my thinking cap on and created a few collages in PicMonkey 

Back From Vaca With Tons of Inspiration from Model Homes in Arizona

Hello Loves, I hope you are all having a super good summer so far. 
We just got back from a little vacation last night to see my 
In-Laws in Arizona. One thing I always love to do down here 
is visit furnished model homes, since they have so many of them. 
So without further chatting, here are some of my faves 
(Not In Any Particular Order) 
Just enjoy the eye candy peeps!!!!

GORGEOUS PATIO .... 
I wanted to steal all the pillows here

Christmas Decorations on the Back Porch

 Hi Sweets, this weekend I played around on our back porch a bit

and decorated for Christmas. I didn't want to invest a lot of time back there, 

because we really only see the back porch this time of year when looking

out through the sliding glass door from the kitchen. BUT never the less I had fun

and got a few good pictures (including a Bunny photo bomb)!

Welcome to my Christmas Tour

Hello Lovelies, I am so glad you are here 
to take my Christmas Tour today. 
I am part of a Christmas Blog Hop, so please make 
sure to visit all the other fantastic blog tours
 listed at the bottom of this post.

Let's start at the front porch.  

A Springy New Look With New Sofa Pillows

Hello Sweet Readers, I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend with Family and Friends. My Mom is still here visiting from Germany and we've been busy shopping and having fun, so I haven't been able to blog about much. But I do want to share some new treasures from our shopping adventures. Such as these awesome 24x24 pillows I found at Target, from their Threshold Collection. 

Hiding A Thermomstat In Plain Sight

Hello Lovelies, today I want to share a wall in our house that I have been hating for a long time. It is a narrow wall right next to our Family room. There is a Thermostat right smack in the middle of it, so I never really knew what to do with it. So I just left it naked for 5 years....LOL

But after getting into the beautiful "Land Of Blogging" and seeing all those beautiful Gallery Walls everyone seems to be doing these days, I went through my house and found a bunch of homeless junk I had stuffed away in a closet.

My Newest Crush -- Furs and Cowhides

Hello and happy weekend everyone, today I want to share a new crush with you ....Furs and Cowhides....Seems that they are everywhere these days.....Around Christmas-time I purchased this fake throw fur from World Market.

Decorating with Boxwood

Hello and Happy Sunday to all of you, I had originally planned to do some Fall decorating this weekend, but things got busy and I didn't....well, what else is new? LOL... instead I will share some pictures on how I have boxwood accents all through-out my house. Fall will have to wait another week!

I just love BOXWOOD, fake or real....inside or outside.....so let's get the Boxwood Tour started!

 Here is my little candle chandelier above our kitchen nook. I just put some little fake boxwood balls in between the candles.
