Sloths

Authors: DecorandtheDog

We were serious sloths this week-end.  So lazy.  I’d say it was wonderful but we were all kind of antsy.  I’ve been feeling a little uninspired lately. I’m not sure what project I want to tackle.  Our vacation is also close and I don’t really want to start anything big before then.

I feel that this photo...

White Coat, Cute Dog, Green Shorts

Authors: DecorandtheDog

I’d like to tell you that my obsession with Instagram is over.  That, however, would be a lie.  I definitely took more pictures in the past week because of the app.  Now I am going to bore you all with them.  It’s like me showing you my vacation photos but much worse.

Let’s start back at last Friday at 5...

Gettin’ Spicy With It

Authors: DecorandtheDog

Warning:  Life changing post ahead.

Say “hello” to my messy cupboard.  (Please channel your inner Scarface.)

This cupboard kept making me sad.  I couldn’t find anything.  Stuff would attack me when I opened the doors.  I kept buying things that I didn’t need.  I couldn’t reach my sprinkles. It’s a...

Blogging Basics- Static Pages

Do you all remember when I wasn’t a flaky blogger?  Yeah, me neither. 

Back in the day (or 2 months ago) I started this series called “Blogging Basics.”  I covered such topics as to blog or not to blog, making a blog header, finding your niche, and using social media.  Today I’m bringing it back.  W...

Yui’s Mom

Authors: DecorandtheDog

One of my favorite things about blogging is the people that you “meet”.  I honestly did not expect to develop relationships with so many different people.  I thought I would write some stuff, a few people would read it and we’d call it a day.
One blogger that I have enjoyed getting to know is Emily-Claire from eclair...

Before, Progress, Plans

Authors: DecorandtheDog

Last week I shared with you my brother’s living room progress.  We also finished painting a few other rooms. Like the kitchen.  The fiesta kitchen.  Who wants burritos?

We had some focus issues while painting.  There were just so many hideous colors to hide.  I started priming the kitchen.  My...

The More You Know

Authors: DecorandtheDog


Today I will fill you in on important things that you should know.
1.  Our powder room was featured on this little blog called Young House Love yesterday.  No big deal.  Okay, fine.  It’s a huge deal. John and Sherry think a room in my house is worthy enough of their blog.  Holy cow.  I thought m...

Instagram for Android

Authors: DecorandtheDog

I about peed my pants when I received this e-mail Tuesday afternoon.

Instagram is now available for Android. All of us Android hipsters can now join in on the fun.  (You can find more info on the app here!)
I tried to install it quickly. You know, in between counseling patients not to drink booze with their pain pills. My...

Lessons Learned

Authors: DecorandtheDog

Today I’d like to share with you lessons that were learned in my brother’s living room this week-end.

Lesson #1:  I am the world’s greatest sister.  Almost 30 hours of painting/slave labor will get you that title.  *Pats self on back.*  Little brother has a lot of projects ahead of him.

Lesson #2: ...
