There’s no shortage of lamp shades at the thrift store and they’re usually super affordable, which makes them the perfect DIY project! I’ve been swooning over a pleated lamp shade for a while but they can cost quite a bit! I’m going to show you how to make your own for a fraction of the price.
I found this little lamp base at the thrift store for $10 and couldn’t pass it up. It didn’t come with a shade so I purchased this tapered lamp shade online. For some reason when I bought it, it was only $25 and now
Layers of lovely on the table is my favorite thing. Pretty place settings & linens and a beautiful spring centerpiece are perfect for a simple and sweet table by the barn. This centerpiece has a little secret to creating it – sharing more about this idea today.

For this table- I decided to use a couple of different pieces of this beautiful French

Due to unforeseen circumstances (the little one broke her leg…. in two places… at school ekk!!!), the #DreamTeam was down last week. #sorry. We are back though, and I can’t wait to see what you’ve been up to.
This week I’m linking up with a fab event happening in South Bank, London this February half term. If you are around
Maybe it was “Tool Time” after all.
Tim Allen was filmed playfully flashing his “Home Improvement” co-star Patricia Richardson in a newly resurfaced clip.
In the blooper scene, Allen, who played Richardson’s husband on the ABC sitcom, is dressed in a kilt as the actress says, “Hangs long. I just wish it was shorter.”

Sarah Paulson didn’t discover her talent for creating homes with what interior designer Amy Kehoe calls “sophisticated whimsy” until she was in her 40s. As a former New Yorker and an actress who has spent much of her adult life on set, buying and decorating a house wasn’t on her long to-do list. “It felt like too much responsibility. Only grown-ups did that, not me,” says the Emmy Award–winning actress, who stars in the upcoming horror thriller Dust. “I always wanted Manhattan life, an apartment with a doorman, if you were lucky. Owning a home has never held that allure.”
February is known as the month of love by many. It is a time when many of us pull loved ones a little closer, indulge in sweets, and focus more on the romantic side of life with those we care for. And February is also a great time to show yourself a little extra love and today is a different kind of Valentine’s Day post- all about Self Love.
Showing yourself love is more than just luxurious baths and buying yourself flowers; it’s about changing your mindset to look at yourself in a kind, healthy, and loving way.
