Wraparound porches; wide front steps; deep, cushioned swings; plantation shutters; draped wisteria; indoor furniture outside: these are a few of my favorite things. Comfortable, stylish outdoor living spaces are an absolute must for me in a future home.
P.S. Anyone have a good source for those slatted, folding garden chairs that are so very chic? I’d take either the metal or wooden variety.

I’m in need of some help today, friends. I really want to make a few sets of curtains, but I’m stymied on the whole fabric purchasing situation. I don’t even know what I want, exactly, but I do know that JoAnn doesn’t have it and that I’m not sure where else to look. Where do y’all go when you need stylish, reasonably priced fabric?

I love old homes, and one of my favorite characteristics of them is their tendency to have gorgeous wooden ceilings with exposed beams. I love when you can see the “bones” of a house.

Oh, how I would love to have an entire wall dedicated to a bulletin board (or, as here, a wall of nail-head trimmed burlap). After all, I was the girl who had a seven foot by three foot cork board in her dorm room one year. It was kind of famous, actually — people would pop into my room and say, “Ohhhhh, you’re that girl.” Mmmm, yes?
