Coffee Talk: Placenta Prints; Home Decor; Photo Challenge, Maybe {In the Cafe}
Hi, and welcome to Coffee Talk. In case you’re new here, this is where I share some of the great and not~so~great stuff that I find on the web. Topics range from news stories that leave me scratchin’ my head to DIYs that I think are absolutely clever. And, who knows, there may even be a recipe thrown in here or there just for fun. So grab a cup of coffee {or tea or whatever floats your boat} and let’s talk… 1. Are you pregnant? Do you dig original art? Well, now you can have your placenta turned into a Tree of Life Print. dry heaves Seriously, who looked at their…

Brown Boots and a Recipe {Shoe Style Saturday}
Happy Saturday! Do you have plans for this weekend? So far, I got nothin’. I may talk the hubs into visiting some more antique shops downtown. We’ve been doing that a lot lately. I’m totally digging the idea of upcycling and repurposing things. And the hubs is really getting in to it too. In fact, one of our favorite places right now is a little shop called Annie Laurie’s Antiques. You can read all about it by clicking here. This is our living room, the space we’re currently trying to decorate… I love the wall color and the wood ceiling. At first, I thought it’d be a little too cabiney…

Succulent Garden {Decorating}
This morning I woke up with one goal in mind ~ buy a succulent garden. I’ve always loved succulents. Actually, I’ve always loved plants but since I became a card carrying member of the Serial Plant Killers Anonymous Club, I’ve banned myself from buying any. But then I started spending an inordinant amount of time perusing succulent gardens on Pinterest and I decided that I had to have one. Not wanted but needed to have one. And my justification was that this little garden would look beautiful on my new coffee table once it finally arrives. Hello, week 3 of no living room furniture. Do you know how hard it…

Summer Colors {Photography}
Right now I’m obsessed with colors. I’m talking about bright colors that scream summer. I think it’s the change of seasons but I really want to update my living room. Right now it’s done in browns with muted creams, greens and burgundies… Nice for fall and winter but for spring and summer not so much. Do you redecorate seasonally or do you decorate once and let it be?

New House Tour: The Front Porch
You can’t see me, but I’m dancing a jig. Well, I’m not really ’cause I don’t know how to dance a jig but if I did, I would, but it wouldn’t matter ’cause you wouldn’t be able to see me so you’d have to take my word for it. So either way, you just have to trust that I’m happy about my current living situation. Whew! We have a house. A nice house. A beautiful house that has made us all incredibly happy. Now to be honest, when I first saw the house, I hated it. I thought, I could muddle through for six months. Nine months max. But absolutely…

Day 15: My Dream House
My dream house is the house that I’m living in right now. My husband and I lived with my mother~in~law for 6 and half years before we found the right house for our family. That may seem like we were incredibly picky but we weren’t ~ we have four kids who live at home and we just needed space. Then there were the other things that kept biting us in our collective butts and depleting our down payment (not only is cancer annoying, it’s expensive). Anyway, the hubs and I used to spend every weekend going to open houses… In fact, we went so often that the realtors got to…
