My friend Jen at Home in the Country recently posted her banker’s chair makeover. And, I about had a heart attack and died. At age 26. A-flippin’-mazing. Right? I’ve been wanting a new chair for our desk in the office, and this was exactly what I had been looking at. Only, I’d been lusting over […]
Cheap, cheap, drapes, drapes

(Sigh) (Just Beachy) Loving that garden stool and the tailored look of the bedding. Oh, and I think I need to pick up a cable knit pillow. Poppytalk […]
