Friday’s Question of The Day!!

I absolutely love monograms and in my own home I have my all white towels monogrammed in cream for our master bedroom. In our black and white guest bathroom we have white towels with a black monogram.

This weeks question is about monogrammed towels and how to hang them. My reader asked this question……..

When you monogram towels, do you just monogram the hand towel, if you are using them for decoration in your powder room?  Two bath towels on a towel rack with a hand towel on each one.  Which one do you monogram?

Great question!! One  that we might think is obvious for some and yet it did make me stop and think!!  What if you don’t want both towels monogrammed which one would you spend money on to have monogrammed? 

So Dear reader’s, “What Say Ye?!”

BTW: Here is an image of my own guest bathroom with monogrammed towels. I have a bath towel and a hand towel. I also have a towel laying on the side of the sink for use.......

Simple and Easy Ideas!!!

Once in awhile I run across something that I think is really a good idea. I thought I would show you a few ideas that were new to me. I like to find things that I can implement in my own home.

I figured if I could use some of these ideas then you might like them also………

I love this idea. A bag clip and coffee scoop all in one, genius!!

Since I am on the subject of cabinet doors take a look at this genius camouflage of 1970’s cabinet doors. Next time my kitchen needs repainting I am going to have hubby do this before the painting!

I don’t know about you all, but I hate cords showing. Sometimes the simplest ideas are so obvious once we see them. This idea was one of those ideas where I said, “Now why didn’t I think of that?!”

Speaking of cords made me think about lights.  Check out these fun hanging lights.  Wouldn’t these be fun in a boys room or a den?

How about these fun lights for outside?…..

Thinking about outside made me think I need to get off of the computer and go and do some watering before it gets too hot!!

Sometimes We Just Need To Simplify

I am just like the rest of the bloggers in blog land. I go all over the web looking for inspirational images. In the last few days something came to my attention.

I began to notice that it was the simple designs, the uncomplicated designs that were so appealing.

I think that sometimes we complicate our design minds with too many details and it becomes a room of, “Stuff,” rather than a beautifully appointed room.

The word, “Edit” comes to my mind. Sometimes that can be so difficult to do. Especially if you are a more is more gal. I personally live in pretty edited spaces, but I do think my mind can get cluttered with the details.

I found when I was perusing the web and finding these beautiful, simple spaces and vignette it gave me a sense of peace.  I know we all want some of that in our lives, don’t we?

Let me show you some of the spaces that gave me the sense of peace and see what you think and feel when you look at them…….

So do you feel relaxed and more at peace, after looking at all of these
images? I must admit I thoroughly enjoyed looking at all of them again.

In the future I am going to be more mindful of just how many items 
I put into a space and vignettes. I am really liking the feeling I get 
from all the above images.
