GARDENING INSIDE

part of why i love having a garden is so i can bring my flowers and greens inside...its INSTANT decor....and FREE!!

whatever the plant is called, i LOVE it!! its in the backyard...really plush and lasts forever in the vase. LOVE having this to pick from 5 months out of the year

love my lantana.......

daisies.....

once again.....can't remember this plant-but its a beautiful bush new to the yard....leaves last FOREVER in the vase!

acuba always in the house....and it will root so you can plant it!

and here are the chairs we replaced with the old ones that were NOT comfortable loungey chairs-these are SUPER comfortable.....you may remember when i was in a bind trying to figure out my family room....see link!

BEFORE AND AFTER: MAGNOLIA KITCHEN FACELIFT

once again.....the before shots are MIA!!!.......but, to give you the background, these homeowners experienced a HORRIBLE leak in their kitchen and had to replace the floors. UGH!
they felt overwhelmed and figured they may as well give the poor kitchen a facelift.... this is where i came in!

BEFORE:
kitchen cabinets were natural maple wood color, no tile backsplash, dark granite countertops, dated pendants, and no eat-in area.

AFTER: finishing touches going in.....

the new eating area!!

before, there was a built in desk area that took up way too much space. we designed this space saving built-in corner banquette to maximize the largest dining table possible.
