Cake Pushups!

Pure yummy fun! Cake push ups are the new way to serve dessert. Experiment with different flavors and looks for a fun treat. For more information check out My Cake School.

Nail Shellac

This weekend my mom and I got manicures! It was much fun, as time with my mom always is:)
There is a newer product out called Shellac.

It's a gel nail product that is applied over your natural nail in several layers, using a UV lamp to harden the gel product between each layer. It costs more than regular polish, but is said to resist chipping and fading and can last as long as three weeks. So far the thing I love most is that it's so shiney! It's day two, and I'm still a huge fan:) If my manicure really lasts three weeks, I just might be Shellac's biggest fan.

Exciting News To Share!

I am finally so excited to announce a new opportunity that has opened up for me!

After a long, (and sort of grueling) hiring process I was offered an interior design position with Duncan Aviation! They have designed private jets for clients like Oprah, and the owner of the New York Yankees. At the present time they're working with Michael Bloomberg and Billy Graham! I am SO excited that this worked out for me!

My initial interview was much like any job interview. BUT, my second interview was a design practicum! Where I actually was given a "client" and had to design his jet! I had one week to complete my design and then had to present it to a panel of people from Duncan Aviation. Here's my project board: (along with my carpet and additional fabric samples)

I will try so hard to keep my blog up-to-speed during this transition! In the meantime, I am also working with a builder in Lincoln designing two "parade" homes, on top of some other design jobs I'm doing! Needless to say, there's a lot going on right now:)

I definitely appreciate all of my loyal followers.
Have a great weekend!

Valentine's Day!

I am one lucky girl! :)

This morning I was delivered 18 (yes, eighteen!) red roses from Tim!

Beautiful. :)

I also got an iPhone! I LOVE IT! This is one amazing phone, let me tell ya!

The apps that this phone has are SO cool! One of my favcorites is called "scanner." I can go to Target (or wherever) and if I find an item I fall in love with - let's say it's a new camera, I can scan the barcode and my phone will tell me the place in Omaha where it can be purchased at the lowest price!!! SO COOL! Also, I have no need for a Garmin anymore b/c my phone can be my navigation system. But my most favorite feature so far is the video cam! I had this on my old phone, but it was old and the video was always so unclear. I can now send Tim video of Wilson (I think I sent him 6 this weekend, lol)! I love it!

So far, I HIGHLY recommend this amazing phone!!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I hope lots of love surrounded you today.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope your day is filled with lots of love!

Happy Valentine's Day!

blogoversary bday

Exactly one year ago today, I wrote my very first post on this blog! In such a short time blogging has quite literally changed my life; I’ve found a wonderful creative outlet, and I’ve had the chance to meet some incredibly amazing and talented people. All I wanted a space to share my home projects and some of my favorite things, but I got so much more than that! And for that I thank all of YOU!











This year has meant so much to me. Thank you to everyone for visiting my petite blog and for all your lovely comments, you are all amazing and I appreciate every one of you!











I know the future holds some wonderful things, and as I leap forward I hope you will continue to travel along on this journey with me!











And to give back & say thank you in a small way, I am giving away a copy of the coveted Domino: the Book of Decorating {a MUST have}; if you already own one, enter any ways and pass it along to a lucky friend :) This book is a constant reference to me!
