Of course, we all know the kitchen is the heart of the home. But, the couch-- that's one of my all-time favorite places. What's better than throwing on your favorite movie, snuggling up with your favorite person, and getting cozy on the couch? If you ask me, not much can beat that. Except maybe when you've got some cute throw pillows and blankets to use for snuggling. It can be tough because comfort is important here-- but so are looks. I love a sweet seasonal couch-- and today I'm going to ... continue reading...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again-- decorating is easy once you get started. It's the getting started that can be hard. Of course, for holidays like July 4th and Memorial Day, it's easy to know just what decor to pull out of the closet. But, and I've heard this from SO many others, August is a tough one. Not much is happening... it's time to put away the patriotic decor (at least to an extent), but not quite time to break out the pumpkins. I think this is why so many stores and ... continue reading...

If you have cats, and especially if you have cats AND dogs, you probably relate to the need of an interior cat door. Personally, I have 3 cats and 3 dogs, so it's basically a zoo around here... dogs chasing cats 24/7. Spoiler alert, the old stereotype is true.
