- Dining Room Christmas Sparkle 2016This will be my last room tour for Christmas this year. Instead of putting it all in one Christmas home tour post, I thought it would be more fun to spread out the Holiday cheer with one room at a time. I always use silver in my dining room and it m...

- Fashion over 50: Boho Top and Bootson Dec 14, 2016 in Fashion Beauty & Fitness featuredI guess I'll keep calling this fashion series Fashion over 50, because that covers the 60's too, but I'll be tagging it in social media as both. I don't think there are a lot of over 60 fashion bloggers out there, so maybe this will catch on! I'm ba...
- Foyer Table Christmas CheerAs I always do for Christmas, my foyer table is a great spot to add some Christmas cheer and I enjoy coming up with different ways to welcome my friends with some extra special touches. I'm joining my friend, Chris, with her annual tour, called Welco...
- 1950’s Brick Ranch Kitchen Renovation Reveal!Today's post makes me giddy and is really all about why I started blogging in the first place. Sharing home renovation ideas on a budget was a big part of why I started sharing online years ago and that continues to motivate and excite me today. Eve...

- Turning 60on Dec 6, 2016 in Family Friends and Me featured1956 was a very good year. At least it was for me. This mid-century modern girl was born this day in 1956 which means that today is a milestone birthday for me and I turn 60. Sixty! It just seems so unreal to me that I am 60 years old, but I thoug...
- Christmas Kitchen 2016As I always do, I'm using traditional Christmas colors of red and green in the kitchen. It just goes in there so well, so I go with it and it is my happy place of Christmas cheer. But I have to say, every year it gets more difficult to come up with...
- Styling it with Tony Lama Bootson Dec 3, 2016 in Fashion Beauty & Fitness featuredToday I have a special fashion post for you, since I had to get this one out there as soon as possible.

I shared the first floor last week. It had a lot of beauty packed inside that gorgeous exterior, so I'm back to t...
- Managing Holiday StressI don't know about you, but at this point in life, I try to avoid stress as much as I possibly can. Working at home sure helps that since I don't have to deal with the Atlanta traffic conditions. Talk about a stressor, that is one of the top ones in...

She uses fresh flowers and collects old things and her...
- Umbrella Addition to the PatioSince I added the patio space to my backyard last year, this is the second season I’ve gotten to use it. I'm still so happy that I decided to have it built out. The whole look enhances my backyard so much. Having a screened porch and now a patio ju...
