diy frame art treasure ~

diy frame art treasure ~

Sooooooo ~ my last post was my #oneword365, all about “grace”. And grace has been sorely needed the first weeks of this year. Endless aggravation all month ~ two miserable head colds, more than usual turmoil at work, concern about local and world events, and an ongoing case of blogger burn-out ~ not necessarily in that order. And while I… Read More

arhaus at avalon ~ #blwfave

Do you have a fave local shopping area? We’re lucky here in Atlanta, because we have so many different shopping areas ~ from tried and true in-town spots, to new mixed-use lifestyle parks. And I enjoy visiting them all at different times of the year. For a bit of bluwaterstyle holiday browsing, I stopped by Avalon in Alpharetta recently ~~~  It’s… Read More

thanksgiving table setting ~

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday ~ family, friends, food and football! We’re spending the holiday with Bluwatermom, but I like to do a Thanksgiving table setting at Bluwatervilla to enjoy the entire week. It makes morning coffee and cereal, or evening soup and sandwich feel special all week! This year I found some beautiful fall color, and brought it home!… Read More

OK, so we know that fall is not my jam ~ I’m a summer girl at heart. But who could resist these colors? Finally fall came up and said, “hello ~ let’s be friends” and turned into a beautiful fall color wreath. I found these peonies in gorgeous fall colors at Hobby Lobby. Big lush floral bush bundles ~ and… Read More

It’s always 5:00 somewhere, and it’s always summer somewhere ~ especially in my mind. The calendar says it’s almost November, but it’s been warmer than usual here, so we are still loving some porch and patio time. This time of year I’m up for a little pumpkin spice and a lot of football, and it’s even nicer when we can… Read More

hang a mirror? easy peasy!

hang a mirror? easy peasy!

Easy is always a relative term. Like when I have a problem with some electronic device and Bluwaterguy tells me how to fix it, starting with “it’s easy” ~ and of course, it rarely is from my perspective. So when he told me he had an easy way to hang a mirror, I thought, “uh-oh, here we go” ~ but… Read More

Amy Howard ~ one step paint

This post is all about how I refreshed some of my old furniture with a new look using Amy Howard One Step Paint. But it could also be titled “yes, I’ve had this furniture for 40 years” or “why I always skip ahead to the happy ending” or “what I did this past summer” ~ because all of those things… Read More
