Progress: Dining Room
Ta-dao! How you like us now?! Still so-so? Oh. Anyway, as always we celebrate progress. Sometimes it feels like things around here aren’t moving very much. Mostly because we’ve been hopping from project to project just to stay excited (and tending to more important things). This room is definitely not finished. We’re planning on getting…

Sneak: Mom’s Room
She’s a stroke survivor and needs 24-hour help. Although, my mom and I were always very close even if she was perfectly healthy we’d probably have the same living arrangement. Her being a single mother and I an only child, there was always a “we’re all we have” type of feeling. Us gals, we stuck…

Progress: Bar Hopping.
Remember our bar? Would you like pictures of some unimpressive progress? No? Too bad. We’ve been wanting to raise our makeshift bar up a bit higher since we purchased our little Besta over a year ago. We couldn’t find anything tall enough that would work with the piece. Until I came across Hairpin Legs! Gasp,…

So it didn’t make sense to buy 6 pretty and expensive chairs. Instead we bought four great but not amazing…

Light me up, baby!
Earlier this month we had Mother’s Day brunch at Yong’s mother’s house. The event was so pleasant that it was decided that we’d have scheduled lunches every so often. It was, also, decided we’d be next to host. The get together isn’t for another month or so but it put the pressure on for getting…

Coral, as in Reef.
I’m currently obsessing over this giant Coral-colored rug. It needs to escape and sneak up under my dining room table, ASAP!

In Orbit.
I thought I’d let the pictures of these beauties speak for themselves. I’d been eyeing these Nate Berkus™ for HSN Orbit Table Lamps for a while. Normally when I love something so much I jump on it and purchase right away. But I’ve been practicing restraint and learning to know the difference between love at…
