It’s September 1 and this weekend is Labor Day weekend. Although I live in Miami and it will be hot and steamy for the next month and a half— it is the end of the summer and fall is upon us. I decided to take a look on the Old Navy website and see what…

Ahhhh, Wednesday. It’s not only Wednesday but it’s the last day of August…the summer is really really coming to an end here. Today I spent the morning at the Barnacle Historic House which is a state park today. The air was thick from the humidity and the mosquitoes were out and the trails were wet….

Buttons are so pretty aren’t they? They can be simple or complex…they can literally hold things together or figuratively. Pinterest Tree Find My Family Tree c.2002 When I first started working in museums I would often spend my weekends out in the community working the museum booth with some sort of art activity at whatever…

Have I mentioned how much I love a good chevron pattern? I do. One of my very fashion conscience “cousins” has two adorable babies and has asked me to do something for their nursery. Her son is 17 months old and her daughter is nearly 5 months old…and they share a room. This is going…

Last night was quite the adventure at our casa. I promise you will laugh…and if you have kids…you will feel my pain…our pain. Just visit The Florida Room today and read all about what we were up to!

It’s here, the school year. Remember when school started AFTER labor day? …yeah well not anymore.

Everyone is slowly coming back from vacation…

Sometimes inspiration hits you…and all you have around are mini post-it notes (I blame Pinterest!) and ballpoint pens. Wouldn’t these be great paintings? Happy Tuesday!

So I finally did it. I joined Pinterest and oh my! It’s amazing! Really and truly …I have been a user of Tumblr for 2 years now—but this takes that to another level. Here I can organize my images into groups so I can not only categorize…but I can actually find! Pinterest is like Tumblr’s…

I love a good scarf (I’m wearing one today). Here’s the thing about a scarf… 1. They keep you snug as a bug 2. They can make a plain ensemble POP! 3. They are easy to throw on 4. You can wear them in so many ways 5. Regardless of what your waist is doing—…

Good Wednesday! I hope you are having a lovely week…it is hot and steamy in Miami–but no hurricanes for us (in more ways than one-ba-dum-ching) and that is a good thing! Anyhow, here is today’s Wednesday Wardrobe. A lot of blue with a splash of yellow. I knew I was going to be doing teacher…
