Random Weekend

It is that random weekend time

and this weekend, I am thinking about all kinds of random things 

and none of them are involving the 'big' game that is going on today.

So, if you aren't watching football 

this one is for you.

French Cottage Kitchen Refresh- Reveal

 I mentioned before that I wasn't sure why I fell in love with this house

when I first saw it. I think that any time you tackle a renovation or change

in an older house- you will question it again. 

Sometimes I wonder why it is that I see the potential for what something could be

instead of the 'are you kidding me?' 

But you know... I see the original. 

The vintage charm. 

The old handmade construction and detailing.

The huge amount of work, sore muscles

head shaking, smashed fingers and hair pulling that will be involved? 

Not so much.

Well, until after tackling the project of course.

Feathered Nest Friday

Welcome to Feathered Nest Friday!

I hope your week has been going well!

Here's what I shared this week~

Crushing on Toile 

{Details} A toile tale

Sometimes it is the simplest of things that first catches your eye

and that makes you take a longer look.

When something first catches my eye - it is usually because of one detail

rather than the whole picture.

I was browsing a bit the other day for a little something - something

to add a dash of warm sunshine to a room.

January seems to usher in a semi- starkness.

Less clutter. More quiet space.
A crisp, clean and simple background. 

And yes along with that sometimes, the blahs.
