A Star Spangled Ottoman | February 21, 2011

A Star Spangled Ottoman

Oh say can you see.

A star spangled ottoman. There’s nothing like the red, white and blue. Go patriotic and get an Americana burlap ottoman for your home. These ottomans come in all shapes and sizes and can fit in any space. But my favorite spot for an ottoman is right in front of my most comfortable chair. I even use a burlap ottoman in my bedroom to throw yesterday’s clothes on and to put my shoes on in the morning.

Britney Spears Hold it Against Me in DANNIJO | February 21, 2011

Britney Spears Hold it Against Me in DANNIJO

I have for the longest time been a fan of Britney Spears.  Through it all, I stuck by her and believed in her performance ability. So with all the excitement of her new video “Hold it Against Me” I knew it would be a hit.  What I didn’t realized is how much I would love the necklace she is wearing.   I spotted it immediately and needed to know who made it.

Britney totally rocked a DANNIJO Ismene necklace, worth $745,  Swarovski crystal and chains piece, hand-made in New York.    The collection is hand-made jewelry by sisters Danielle and Jodie Snyder.  Their … Read More »

Kid-Friendly Meal: Cornbread Pizza | February 21, 2011

Kid-Friendly Meal: Cornbread Pizza

I’ll bet you know at least one kid or teen in braces. What can they eat when their teeth hurt? And how can parents prepare meals that help avoid breaking off a bracket?

Clutter and Mayhem Made Fun At Home? Not!

Hey! You! Yes you, don’t be looking around at everybody else. For once this is all about you. Now I’m going to ask you some very simple but probably challenging questions. Ready? OK, here we go!

Do you ever find yourself, when faced with the task of ‘cleaning up’, using the phrase, “I can’t get rid of THAT because I might need it someday!”?
