My name is Angela, and I have Type A personality. {Now you say:} Hi, Angela! Phew, it feels good to get that off my chest! As you probably already know, I'm a pretty structured person, and I like to create detailed plans before I make any decorating or organizing decisions. When I designed Beckett's "big boy room," I created a to-scale rendering of the the argyle wall to decide on the exact color placements before I began painting. And when I organized our pantry, I drew up a ... View the Post

{seasonal style} Hello Spring Home Tour
It's been feeling like spring in Denver for about a month now... but winter is about to make its return with snow expected later this week. Even the weather outside remains unpredictable, I've fully committed to spring inside the house! Our home is pretty bright and bold year round, but spring colors are definitely my favorite, and I've been going a little crazy with flowers lately! I'm excited to be participating in the Hello Spring Home Tour blog home with 19 other super talented ... View the Post
DIY Photo Transfer Tray
With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I wanted to show you how easy it is to transfer one of your favorite photos to an acrylic serving tray! It makes a meaningful gift for your significant other, or even your best friend, and the possibilities are endless! For my tray, I chose a photo from our honeymoon in Santorini, Greece, and overlaid the quote, "It's not where you travel...It's who you travel with!" Thank you to Adobe for providing the supplies for this project! This post ... View the Post
Easy Ways to Organize Jewelry
My love for inexpensive jewelry knows no bounds! If it's colorful, or sparkly, or chunky, I can't pass it up. And jewelry is always my favorite souvenir from my travels. I love that every time I wear the necklace Scott bought on our honeymoon in Greece, the ring I bought at a Christmas market in Madrid, or the elephant bracelet I got on our safari in South Africa, they are tangible reminders that keep the memories of those adventures alive. But I've learned that jewelry, like many other ... View the Post
Early Summer Backyard Tour
Happy Memorial Day! I hope that you are enjoying the day with family and friends, and taking time to remember and reflect on those who have served our country. I was invited to join a fab group of bloggers who are opening our doors {or gates} this week for summer home tours. A couple of months ago I showed you how I decorate indoors for spring and summer, so I thought that this was a perfect opportunity to show you some summer updates in our backyard. {You'll find links to all of the other ...

An Easy Trick to Hide Lamp Cords
Yesterday I came across a photo slide show of the gorgeous DC home that the Obama's will be renting when the leave the White House. I was just sitting down to write this post when I got sidetracked looking at the photos of the stunning mansion in its glorious shades of white and gray, and I had to laugh when I got to the photo of the home's basement family room. For all its high-end style, my eye was immediately drawn to a bunch of cords under one of the tables. It truly is a universal ... View the Post
{planning} 2015 List Making: Decorating and Organizing Plans for the New Year
Are you a list maker? I am! I use the Reminders app on my iPhone to make lists for everything in my life, from shopping lists and general to dos, to lists of future projects and plans for each room of our home. We spent last week enjoying lots of family time in the mountains, and on the way home we got stuck in traffic. Rather than being frustrated by the delay, Scott and I used the time {while the kids gloriously slept in the backseat} to review our project lists for each room of our house - ... View the Post
Tour Our Home
Welcome! If you love getting an opportunity to peek inside someones home as much as I do, then you've come to the right place, because I'm opening the doors and showing you around! Before I show you around, let me give you a little background... When we were first married, Scott and I lived in a loft-condo in downtown Denver, which suited us perfectly! We love the city and we loved living within walking distance of all our favorite things - art, theater, sports, and good restaurants. Our place ... View the Post

Happy Monday, everyone! There's a pretty cool Tour through Blogland happening right now, and last week I was invited to participate by Christy, the lovely lady behind Confessions of a Serial Do-It-Yourselfer.

But ... View the Post
Rings Around the World: Our Wedding Ring Selfie Photo Tradition
You know that list of "must have" wedding photos that most couples give to the photographer in advance of the big day? Things like the bride's mom helping her zip up her dress, the groom's expression as the bride walks down the aisle, the cutting of the cake, and a close up of the wedding bands. Yeah...we forgot to make a list like that. We planned every detail of the wedding to a T, but giving the photographer a list of photos didn't even cross our minds. Our photographer did a wonderful ... View the Post
{seasonal style} My Modern Christmas Table + 10 More
Ever since my husband gave me a set of gorgeous white and silver snowflake dishes for Christmas a couple of years ago, I look for any excuse I can find to entertain around the holidays and throughout the winter! When I was invited to participate in a Christmas table blog hop with some of the most talented bloggers I know, and hosted by the lovely Aniko of Place of My Taste, I was a little intimidated because tablescapes aren't really my thing, but I was excited to see how my snowflake ...

Rings Around South Africa
I can't believe it's already been three weeks since we returned from our trip to South Africa {if you missed it, I posted a quick trip overview the day after we got home}. I've been so busy working on the redesign of our master bedroom for the One Room Challenge {and designing rooms for two other people...fun projects that I'll tell you about soon} that we've barely started going through the thousands of photos we took on our safari and during our time in Cape Town. I can't wait to put ... View the Post
