BEAUR- a term of endearment bestowed upon me in 1998. It just stuck and the rest is history.

Shopping for a High Chair
Wow! I want this Chair. Of course, this will not be in my kitchen anytime soon, but a Mama can dream right? Check out this awesome high chair. Oh the possibilities with this very versatile chair. It could last a lifetime. So which high chair am I suppose to buy? I just don't know. Anyone have any suggestions?

Missed It
One thing that I really wish we would have done while we were still in the Midwest was to visit Amish Country. We were less than three hours to Amish Country in Indiana, and never made it there. I heard stories from my friends about the fantastic fabric and furniture that they have. Even though we no longer live in the area, we can check out the fantastic handy work of the Amish on the internet. I wanted to get some furniture for the baby's room because the cribs that the Amish make would have made a wonderful heirloom to pass through the family. I am sad I never got around to that.
The internet allows me the chance to look at shop for Amish furniture. The solid wood dining tables and chairs are just fabulous. Unless you know personally a wood furniture maker, you can't get better than the amish. The pieces are timeless, and will last for years to come (Unlike many of the things you can purchase at chain retail places around the country). There are many different styles to fit any theme in you home. Maybe my next purchase will be a new dining set!

Interior Design: not just for the pros.
The living room was looking a little drab the other day. Less than functional, and it was time for a change. I need to change it around so that it was fresh. I was not buying furniture online, it was time to rearrange. Not to say there aren't a few pieces of furniture that I am drooling over, but we are decorating on a budget, and sometimes you just need to move the furniture around for a fresh perspective. So I cleared out the room, mostly, and cleaned the area. I brought the couch back in first and placed it in a different location. Already I could see what a difference it was going to make. With a few more small moves, and perfect placement of the throw rug I had a brand new living room.
Interior design is not only for professionals, this simple transformation made my day. When M got home from work he noticed immediately and loved it! And since the day that I changed the furniture around, we have used the living room more than any other room in the house! It went from a room that we did not like, or use (wasted space) to the best sitting area in the house.
So next time your space looks a little dull, try something new. A different layout might be exactly what you need. Don't let that couch stick to the wall, try moving it out in the middle of the room. Couple it with an antique trunk, and a modern end table, perhaps you will be surprised with your eclectic look. Move that furniture around and get a completely new look, it is worth the effort.
