A Place to Grow

Two years ago, soon after being married, Cece and Trvor Calhoun hired a longtime friend of Cece's, Tommy Clements, to decorate their new New Orleans home.  The photographs that follow can be found in the July/August issue of Elle Decor. 

I love this home, and I hope that you have enjoyed this post.

See you soon,

Cameron Diaz ~ Soaring

Cameron Diaz, at age 37, is having the best time of her life. She is starring in three Movies – Knight and Day, The Green Hornet, and Bad Teacher. She works out five days a week to build her body because she may become skinny if she doesn’t! Oh, those days.

Diaz detests the internet and Twitter, and just barely returns emails. Her telecommunication tool is an iPad. She couldn’t care less what the media says about her, and believes in living life to the fullest. Losing her father, who died at 58, has helped Cameron realize what is important in life.

This photo shoot, in this month’s Harper’s Bazaar, shows this beautiful, funny actress conquering New York. ENJOY!

Here's to hoping that your week will be happy!

Please stop by my daughter's new blog  b e l l e s & b o w s .  I would greatly appreciate it, friends!

See you soon,

Looks Familiar

This looks like my room after painting. Well, maybe not anywhere nearly as cluttered as this, but it nonetheless looks warm.

I am taking a sculpture class this semester, and having thoroughly enjoyed this time, I am ready to clean everything up and enjoy the fruits of my labor. I am usually a clean freak, but in my one place to be creative, I feel safe among the disaster while involved in a project.

It always amazes me how beautiful the colors are and how well they complement each other on the easel and the surrounding area. This photograph reminded me of my space, and the reality that it needs a good organizational and cleaning session.  So... off I go.

Enjoy you weekend!

See you soon,

IN GRAND STYLE

This beautiful home, a Georgian Revival estate named Cherryfield , is located in New Jersey. The home was acquired by the new owners through a house swap. Sister Parish and Albert Hadley had decorated the home in 1963, so the owners were satisfied with a minor renovation.

This home is absolutely beautiful. I hope that you will ENJOY!

I hope that you have enjoyed this post.  have a great weekend, my friends.

See you soon,
