Hover "PIN IT" Button

 

Thank you to one of my readers for suggesting I get the hovering "Pin It" button on my pictures.  I admit that I am a computer idiot.  So, I was a little nervous to try and figure this out on my own.  But, that is the beauty of the Internet!  I just typed in "How to install a pin button on a blog" and tons of tutorials came up!  I used this helpful tutorial from Code it Pretty.  It was super easy!

 

My "Pin It" button is in the top left corner of all my pictures now.  How cool is that!?

Happy Pinning!!

 



Old House Tour

 

I thought I'd create a post about my old house on Ashbrook Trail.  It's the place where I first started this blog and it saw lots of changes.  We lived there 8 years and made lots of memories there.  I loved that house so much! That house was definitely a diy house.  We did everything ourselves in that house and I loved every minute of it.  I hope you enjoy revisiting my old home.

 

 

The Old Kitchen

 

 

Oh, how I loved this ladder!  I still get lots of emails about this ladder.  I was very sad when I couldn't find a place for it in my new home. 



 

 

I sure miss this granite.  I absolutely adored it when I first saw it.  It is Santa Cecilia granite.  You can go here to see the rest of the kitchen.

 

The Old Breakfast Room

 

 

I recently sold this piece too.  It didn't fit in my new breakfast room.  But, I found something just as pretty and can't wait to show you.  You can go here for the rest of the Breakfast Room tour.

 

Our Old Living Room

 

 

 

My Aunt LaTrelle and I made these curtains!  They stayed with the house when we moved.  The new owners absolutely loved them and I said they could stay.  

 

I love my faux mantle.  It has found a home in our new Master Bedroom and I think it adds such romance to the room.  You can go here to see the rest of the Living Room.

Our Old Master Bathroom

 

We worked so hard on this room.  We tiled the floor, painted the cabinets and walls.  But, it was all worth it!  The before and after are such a dramatic change!

Christmas in the Kitchen Tour

 

 

 

 

 

This is what she looked like when we moved.  We added shutters and a new door.

 



 

 

And this was our first Halloween in the house. 

I hoped you enjoyed the tour!

 

Many blessings,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Gorgeous Works of Art

I'm so excited and extremely proud to introduce you to my father's work of art!  His name is Timothy Dwight Taylor and he has created some beautiful landscapes and architectural artwork. 

 

So, if you could do me a huge favor!!  I think he needs to open an Etsy shop and share these with the world.  He would also like to print these up into greeting cards.  What do YOU think?  We would love your feedback.  Let me know what you think of Daddy's work and if something like Etsy would be a good idea!

Thanks so much!

Lovely Fall

Just a few pics to get us in the mood for some Fall loveliness!!  Here in Texas it is still 98 degrees.  So, its pretty hard to think about pumpkins and scarecrows.  I might decorate the house next week.  Looking at all these inspiring pictures really helps!
