So as of Wednesday, you will see a slightly new look on my blog. It is a “work in progress” The idea is to tweak the design and freshen it up a bit, loving the new logo that I created with the pretty topiary art done by Jeanne of I Dream Of. My shop site will be integrated into my blog over the next few days and the new tole line will be added……will be sure to let you know when this is done. Will be continuing to work on various things to finish up the process during the week…….
Hi, gotta love the magic of the iPhone or any phone for that matter that can capture the moment. For me, it has been an amazing little device at saving moments in time, helping me remember things I might otherwise forget and helping me share various things with others.
What did we do without our phones, almost hard to imagine and then admittedly there are days when I wish we didn’t have them, but that’s a whole other post!? So here is a little peek into what’s new with me lately as seen through my iPhone, little narration is necessary…..
Mady in love with my new chinoiserie mirrors from Freidman Brothers (they make in my opinion the most spectacular mirrors of all) that came (got a pair) for my living room wall, and created new blue and white vignettes on the chests, love the way it came out!
Yes the price tag came off the orchid (lol just got it out of the box, it’s one of my fauxs from my online shop though you would never know)!
Loving my living room mantle
Had real white hydrangeas in this urn that were one foot out the door so added a bunch of faux into the mix and it’s hard to tell which are real and which are not:)
The other chest with its blue and white vignette and the other matching planter
A sneak peek of my bedroom A long way to go as the project sort of fell to the wayside though its about 75% done
Reading Charleston right now and loving it…..
My weekend reading material!
My Tinatini that is becoming a “regular” around here at about 5 pm and my giftwrap for a little gift for a friend including talented Jeanne’s? pretty gift enclosure from I Dream Of
Went to Fig and Olive and feasted on these yummy crostinis…so good!
My white hydrangeas are blooming like mad
And my garden is starting to really take off….I have enough fresh basil for a restaurant!
Loving my new monogrammed tray from the new tole line and just added it to my butlers pantry (soon to be added to my online shop)
So that’s a bit of what is happening over here. When my camera isn’t handy and given how clunky it is, it’s not always convenient, the iPhone is a pretty miraculous little gadget to have around I have to say. Hope you have a wonderful day and thanks again for stopping in!
Tina isn’t it amazing the great shots that can be taken with our phones, I almost wish I had not purchased my last camera, never use it!
Your home is a never ending source of inspirations, the mantles are truly works of art!
Tina your home is beautiful. Would you share your paint color for your walls? Also do you like the trim color to match your walls? I am in Atlanta and have had a few designers tell me to do this.
Hi Tina,
Your energy amazes me ! You must be back in action full time. Your home looks supurb and I agree the Freidman mirrors are gorgeous. Skip reading “The Darlings”. I thought it was a waste of time.
Cheers,
Kathleen
Beautiful, beautiful Tina. Why is your home not in a magazine yet? Veranda, House Beautiful, ARCHITECTUAL DIGEST? WHEN OH WHEN?
Good glory, this is a PIN fest waiting to happen. I just pinned one photo because I need to leave, but your bedroom is a dream and your hydrangeas are THE flower for your home; they are full, abundant and generous in love and beauty. YOWSA! Hugs and happy day, Anita
Tina the blue-and-white vignette literally took my breath away how spectacular it is!! The mirrors are to die for- Great choices.
I love getting a peek into your bedroom it looks like heaven- these are my favorite kind of post the ones about your house your taste is tperfect. Thanks for sharing I have enjoyed so much getting to discover your blog- it’s my favorite .
Your phone really takes great pictures! I feel like my new iphone 5 takes way better pictures than the last one, but I’m not sure they are as good as these! I’ve been thinking about you since your sweet comment about my back to school and kids post….. My heart is breaking for you that the last one is leaving. BUT I’m also excited for you because I know you raised him right and it must be exciting to see what they now do with that. They’ll always be your babies and will always love you as their mama no matter where they are (that’s what I keep telling myself!) xoxo

Tina! ..your garden, I’m so impressed and the basil looks incredible! Such fun pictures and I agree, what did we do back in the day when there were only rotary phones and pencils and paper?? Your mirrors are beautiful as is the glimpse of your bedroom. At first I though you were showing a magazine photo:) Gorgeous! Have fun today..
The mirrors and the mantle are magnificent!! (Unintentional alliteration… lol.) I hate to gush but I gotta admit, your entire taste level is exactly what I love. It’s French and it’s relaxed, but a bit more formal than country. Light and airy with just the right mix of wood patina, gilding and chippy urns. Gorgeous. Just really gorgeous. End gush. 😉
Hello, my beautiful friend! How are you doing today? 🙂
Tina, you have your blog for a long time now and you know that, while we look for inspiration and places to share on our blog, we often see many things we love and others, that we simply could not live with. Your home is the safest place for my eyes! LOL I never see anything I don’t like! 🙂
Let me know if you ever get tired of living there, ok? I can pack really fast!!! LOL
All the best to you, Tina… enjoy your week and your beautiful home!
Always a pleasure touring your gorgeous home! I am in love with that marble mantel – stunning!! Look forward to the changes….although I think your site is beautiful now. Can’t wait.
yes, phones and what they can help us with are such a time saver… total basil ENVY, must smell amazing. All of your white hydrangeas are so beautiful , what a luxury to have a garden full and plenty in the home. Happy reading and cheers!
Absolutely beautiful! The mirrors, fire place makes me want to through out my pieces and start over! Lol, my husband would kill me! Your taste is impeccable! Make some pesto. I use Susan Branches recipe. It’s the best and my family loves it. You can freeze in cute glass jars and have fresh pesto for the winter! Nothing better then a little summer on a cold night!
Tina hi I love the new look, it so fresh and pretty. Congratulations to you. Those pictures took my breath away, the peek into your bedroom is just beautiful.
Your new bedrooms and blue and white vignette is really incredible too, fit for a book cover (which you need)! How fun to have your garden, I had one years ago and really miss going out and getting my daily fresh picks. Love your gift wrap too, so pretty. Hope your knee is totally healed.
I loved every single thing I saw today!! First of all those mirrors are stunning, and your faux flowers are incredible. Loved peeking into your serene and frenchy bedroom Tina, its beautiful!
Great stuff as always in your shop, I am a tad jealous 🙂
I like the new graphics – but I LOVE the pictures you choose much better!!!!!
I visit your blog on a regular basis because of the pictures you so thoughtfully choose to showcase.
Just an observation…..NOT a critique. I really enjoy your blog.

Hi Tina! Things are looking pretty darn good over here. The new header looks great, congratulations. I’m sure you’ll be tweaking for the next few days, but you are off to a fabulous start. Love seeing all these little glimpses into your world – and of course that my gift tags are going to good use. That makes me happy! Have a beautiful rest of the week and congratulations again on the new look! XOXO
Love the design the house pictures have me swooning, wow Tina just beautiful. You really do have the magic touch.
Do you make pesto? Food Network has a great one, think it was Rocco De Spirito’s and it was one of the best I have tried and so easy, plus you can freeze it, I froze mine in little ice cube trays for quick easy fall/winter meals.
Your mirror/blue whites and master bedroom pictures are just picture perfect.
Loving the new site. Photos of your lovely home are always a morning treat for me with my coffee. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. (Glad you are back up to speed again).
I missed this post while I was away! So much beauty here…and all from your iPhone!! Friedman Bros. Mirrors are so amazing and yours are stunning. I love all of your vignettes! Your bedroom is so serene. I smiled when I saw the pic from Fig and Olive…I need to take my husband there but we both came back from Vegas vowing to diet. Hope you are having a relaxing weekend and enjoying those books and magazines! xoxo
