Whoooooo’s got a cute nursery!

On October 3, 2012 By Cindy Cowles

Decorating children’s rooms and nurseries is a great way to get creative and have fun.  Many of our more formal family and  living rooms, don’t lend themselves  to expressing ourselves, or bright colors, or just playing around.  But, what better place, to try something new than in a little one’s [...]

The worst thing about the month of September?  I had a total wipe out, can’t be fixed, complete  death of my beloved ( formally beloved) laptop.   But, something good came out of it…I had five people ask me where “Cinfetti” had gone. And, no, they weren’t relatives.  Actually, made me feel so good to know [...]

Not a fish tale!

On August 12, 2012 By Cindy Cowles

I am blogging today from my mother in law’s home in Florida.  We had a great day just relaxing.  We went to have lunch in Crystal River, and I must say there is still nothing as wonderful as a fresh Florida grouper sandwich.  Yum!   We walked around after lunch, but, unfortunately didn’t spy any of [...]

Mixing it up

On August 9, 2012 By Cindy Cowles

The fabric from Lewis and Sheron has been identified, and I sat down and we came up with a plan.  Every designer has his or her method.  I like talking to my client, getting to know their lifestyle and family,  and pouring over pinterest pins and tear sheets to see what direction to take.  This [...]
