you better watch out, you better not cry....
i am officially signing off to go and eat breakfast with my fam, look at the "small tree" with a ridiculous amount of gifts under it, and remember what christmas is really all about. i hope y'all have a wonderful holiday and thank you so much for a fabulous 2008. i could have never imagined having a response like this when i randomly created this blog. y'all are the best and have made me a better designer/ person b/c of it. wishing you and your family a merry christmas and happy new year- much love, pink wallpaper

the final countdown....

we have many things on our list today to tackle: wrapping presents, painting an adorable gift my dad made tay (he's so good, i can't wait to show y'all), buying some stocking stuffers, making christmas cookies...the list goes on and on...i hope y'all are enjoying time w/ your fams as well and not reading this silly blog at work...and if you are, tell your boss that working during the holidays is for losers :)

just hand me the bottle....

anyways, i thought it would be fun to move on to the party...isn't this idea so cute? they are mini bottles of champagne...now that sounds like a fun christmas party!! that's the one sad thing about working solo...no christmas party, no festive cookies, and no cute mini bottles of champagne...

i heart christmas....


christmas is so much fun experiencing it through the eyes of a child...the lights, the decorations, the music, the spirit of it all!!

no more turkey!!


i can't quite make the shift to christmas, although our wallets already have. warren and i played santa yesterday for our daughter. it's kind of strange buying her gifts when she is sitting in the cart....i don't think we will be able to get away w/ that much longer!
i hope y'all had a wonderful thanksgiving...i guess today is officially dec. 1st so start that christmas music and bring on the red and green :)

Happy Turkey Day!!!


currently, i am running around w/ my head cut off trying to finish up some work and get my house ready.....so i better start mopping-seriously hate mopping, get showered, and out the door!! xoxox from pink wallpaper!!! remember calories don't count of holidays :)
** oh, that turkey isn't burnt! we grill our turkey every year- a tradition that began over 25 yrs ago w/ my dad and his best friend...it's the best way to eat turkey (let the men cook it)!!

i heart chesterfield sofas....



last weekend, my mother-in-law and i were in an antique shop and there was an old leather chesterfield sofa hidden in the back of the store. i ran over to it and said "i adore these sofas" and gayle was shocked! i think she thought i had lost my mind b/c all she saw was a lot of tufting and some ratty old leather.....but gayle, here are some perfect examples of the updated chesterfield that i would love to have sitting in my house!! i love them in white with nail head trim and how can you not adore windsor smith's feminine take on it, the chloe sofa?? i am on the hunt for one of these at my local thrift stops (which by the way, i haven't visited in over two weeks...remember i am trying to stop shopping for a while)!
*oh, but don't think i don't love the old ones too; i think that the antique leather one we saw would look divine in a house w/ a great library or man room....unfortunately, we have neither.

wish me luck....

i wish i had taken the 'before' but it is too ugly for me to even look at so i will not subject y'all to it...i am officially starting my bedroom transformation from a room that is drab and (keep your fingers crossed) turning it into fab....the first step- painting. the lovely shade of khaki is no longer working. while i liked it when we moved in 4 1/2 yrs ago, i now want something fresh...so i am painting it.....white! i have had my paint chips out for over a month trying to decide on the perfect shade of white. do you know how many shades of white actually exist? do y'all have any favorites?? as a designer it is so hard for me to commit to things...just b/c i feel like i am constantly seeing new fabulous stuff. but i am super excited about my headboard and am not looking back....however, i can't put her in place until the room is painted so i better go get started....
