Hello! Eek, I’ve been swamped since Thursday, in case you are wondering if I climbed into one of those swings from my previous post and fell asleep for a couple of days! I wish!
Just a little preview, I have some great things planned for you, not only is my 100th post grand give-away just days away (stay tuned for when it will all take place!), I’ve personally interviewed an author and interior designer who has a new book coming out (and if she is good enough to have been on Oprah, you know she is good enough for my blog, you better believe it!). She has very inspiring ideas we can all use!
I also will be featuring a wonderful French-inspired shop and its delightful owner, both of which you are going to love! Plus I’ve got ideas galore in my head and all over my desk just waiting to get on my blog! Yep, oodles and oodles of stuff in the works for you!
And last but not least, the big reveal of all the people who make me smile, I get to make a big list because I have received this award from four very special people in the past week. 10 people per award means 40 people are going to be receiving an award from me. Now that is going to be a big list. I am honored to have received the award and will be honored to pass it along.
Meanwhile, I hope you are kicking back this weekend, having some breakfast in bed or carving a pumpkin or some other weekend fun!
Ooh congrats on getting your blog award 4 times!! Looking forward to reading the stuff coming up on your blog soon!x

Re: It’s not what you don’t have. Sounds like a familiar phrase from one of my all time favorite TV designers, Kitty Bartholomew. I have always loved every one of her shows and I miss her.
I am with you on that whole reuse what you have thing. Amazing what some paint and some imagination can do to update something you thought about tossing.

Melissa honey, You Deserve It! Your blog always brings a smile to my face. Whether it’s looking at the different places and pictures or your refreshing and honest approach to life and decorating. You are such a sweet person I wanted to name you as well. But I could see that you had already been named. Just think, that would have been 50! Although I think everyone would forgive you if you named as many or as few as you wanted!
Love,
Julie
Congratulations, dear Melissa! I can’t wait to see what you have planned!
