Introduction I am crazy about decorating and organizing. In my life however, I can only do it on a BUDGET. I believe in a "use what you have" philosophy, but also love to augment my designs with new, inexpensive accessories, used furniture and vintage finds. This blog is meant to inspire you to reinvent the spaces in your own home, and feel confident that you can do it on any budget!
Interests Being cozy at home with husband and cats, reading for book club, dissecting design magazines and books, rearraging furniture, sewing, making pillows, helping friends and family with interior design, landscape and candid photography, drawing, being silly, talking to max and basie, watching movies with hubby, visiting with family and friends, attending i pity the foo performances, drinking wine, gardening in fair weather, being my husband's biggest fan.

Why don't you ever wear a scarf? It doesn't need to be cold outside for your neck to feel naked.

I do wear scarves, constantly. All colors and types of weaves.
