The Plight of the Cable Bill

 {Oh... wait... wrong kind of bill}
 Heya Nesters!  So, this blog is not just about decor but also about apartment living. Now that I'm living alone, I am 100% self reliant.  And let me tell you-- life is good!  There is no one but myself to get mad at when the dishes are in the sink. I can't have an unexpected guest because I always know who's coming over!  But coming from the shared responsibility of a roommate situation can haunt you... even three months later.

Bodacious Beds

Heya Nesters! Sorry I've been a smidge MIA this week, its been WILD around here! In efforts to force out the insanity and bring in the serenity:  I wanted to share a few bedrooms to make you reverie in the thought of the impending weekend and sleeping late and perhaps even some precious cuddle time with your hunny bunny.

Conference Room Makeover


We have some VIP guests heading over to our office on Tuesday and I've been scrambling to finish up our conference room rehab.  If we could tear down walls and rebuild we would but that just isnt in the cards, since if you remember in this post we rent our facility and have been since pretty much the beginning of time!

Back to School II



Heya Nesters!  I am back with you on this bright Monday Morning with an albeit late follow up post to Thursdays Back to School post.  We discussed consigning, donating and throwing away some of your clothes to make room for that oh-so-cute new Autumn attire.  Or just to clean things up and declutter. So now what are you supposed to do with all those things you are keeping?

DIY Project: Jewelry Hoop

 
Heya Nesters!  I've been working on fixing up my bedroom for the last couple of weeks. I've desperately been looking for a new system in which to keep my jewelry.  After some brainstorming, I came up with going a little "crafty" and made my way to my local craft store to pick up a needlepoint hoop and fabric.

Back to School


Heya Nesters! As you may or may not know, Matt is a teacher, so the eight short weeks of Summer-fun-in-the-sun are a little extra sweet for us.  We try to take advantage of every weekend at the beach or outside in quaint little town moseying from store to store.  We dread seeing the nice weather whiz by, only to have another fall beating down our door. But one thing I love about fall- its the best season for clothes! I love to pull out the light jackets and sweaters I forgot I had and give them life again.

Delightful Design

Heya Nesters! I've been pondering more about my spaces, about what images I want to omit from my collection and what I feel like I'm missing.  I love the gallery and what that adds to the space and I am happy with the new placement of the kind of dark and moody John Singer Sargent painting.  The new clock is awkwardly filling the space between TV and the silver chest. I'm really having the most trouble when it comes to the space behind the TV....

Accessorizing the Secret Garden

Mornin' Nesters! Today, I thought I would regale you with a visual montage of some very apropos and stunning images. So take a peek and reverie in the notion that sometimes... just sometimes, there is a hint of romance and whimsy landing right here on the ground.

Switcheroo Number Two!

Heya Nesters!  I had been mooning over flipping the layout of my bedroom similar to the way I changed my living room around.  So, Friday night I carpe diem'd and started hauling all my accessories out of the room.  All the junk under the bed, the mirror off the dresser, pulled the drawers out were hap-hazardly thrown in the kitchen.  Remember the awkward lay out before hand?
