Life lately……and THE Minted.com winner!


The first two months of the school year have zoomed by at lightning speed
once again…..fall means both volleyball and soccer season for my girls
so that means dinners are on the fly or in a crockpot if I have my
act together, late nights finishing homework, messy bedrooms, lots
of laundry, hosting team dinners, playoffs, tournaments, teacher conferences,
Homecoming, Halloween middle school dance, pre-parties, post dance sleepovers,
treats to be made, costumes to help put together…….ALL I CAN SAY IS
SEND A MASSEUSE AND WINE, STAT!

My design business is humming along quite nicely.  I really want to
do a post about all that I have learned about design, working with
clients, myself etc….It has been a three year journey and provided blessings
that I will never take for granted……When I took the leap and started my 
own design business, I made a commitment to never try to be anything
other than myself and trust my instincts with how I wanted to work.  
Thankfully, that seems to have been the right 'business plan' for me.
As we approach the season of gratitude, I am thankful for the
clients near and far {e-design} that trust and 
hire me to help them in their homes.

I hope to find some time to work in my own home - it's feeling
neglected and when I recently had my friend Melaine from 
My Sweet Savannah visit, I sort of felt like all my unfinished 
and/or un-started projects were exposed…..hopefully she
doesn't do a post on how real bloggers live starring yours truly!

And finally - the winner of the $200 credit from Minted.com
is Mysha from the blog Remington Avenue!
Congratulations!!!  You should have gotten an email from me!

Minted to the rescue….a space in my home that have you likely have never seen before! (and a giveaway, too!)

I confess, I do most of my living in our home on the first floor.

Our second floor has just our girls' bedrooms, their shared bathroom 
and a bonus room that basically serves as 
the girls' hang-out space for when their friends
come over or they watch movies.  I hardly ever go up there - that is
sort of what happens when you have teenagers…..I know that it will
likely be a mess and I just don't need that negativity in my life ;)…..

When Minted.com asked me if I was interested in looking at some of 
their new art prints, I knew exactly the room in need of some improvement…..
our bonus room.  I actually have never hung a single thing on the walls  -
ok, stop, let's process that for a moment.  The lady with the obnoxious 
gallery walls has a bonus room with NO art……

Well, I thought if Minted.com hooked me up with some great art,
maybe I might be inclined to visit my children upstairs more often - ha!

I sent the Minted.com peeps a photo of my pitiful space and let them
choose the art prints they thought would look best.

So without further adieu, I give you my home's bonus space:





And I couldn't resist including a couple photos of one of the  upstairs
residents doing what they seem to do best……Cause it's important
for designers to show both form and FUNCTION.



Minted is such a generous company - they are giving one of YOU the 
opportunity to win a $200 credit so you can add some art to your artless walls too!

To Enter:

* Go to Minted.com

* Take a look at the art prints

* Come back here and leave a comment
telling me which art print
your would order with 
your winnings!

Enter by Friday, October 23.

I will announce the winner on Saturday!
