Happy NYE...some Besties of 2011

Well it's almost 2012...just a few hours left.

For me, this year has been one filled with some incredible moments/events/doings and I thought why not go back and...

some of the highlights.

To begin with,  #projectkitchengorgeous began and was finished.


It's without doubt the absolute kitchen of my dreams.

And to end the year off right, we've just found out that it's officially going to be published- hopefully you'll be seeing some big glossy photos of it this year!!!! Meredith and I are happy dancing x a million.

If you feel like looking back and reading about the whole kitchen journey, clickski HERE and HERE.

And do you know what else happened in 2011?

Well I was a One Kings Lane Tastemaker for god sakes...


...to see my living room on that website was well...ah-maazing...


You can read all about it HERE.

And you know what else made my 2011 pretty fantastic?

Well being asked by House and Home to do a little video...that's what.


I was kind of terrified to be on TV but you know what...I didn't hate it- actually kind of liked it so definitely a highlight of the year...I even got to see that little photo of me in a print issue...very cool.

And speaking of TV, I'm going to be on it again....mark your calendars for January 12th...I'll be telling you the network/show info early next week but for now, I'll tell you that my living room, foyer and Mac's room will be featured on a show, along with a guided tour from yours truly...fun, fun, fun...I think....I haven't seen the video yet...please god let me not hate myself;)

And finally, in 2011 marked the beginning of a new idea.

While out to dinner with the very fabulous Jennifer, Lindsey and Heather, a possible business venture for yours truly was talked about...and you know what, I'm going to make it happen.

I don't want to say too much about it but I will tell you that I'm working on a website and you'll be able to buy shit on it...good shit.

Stay tuned my friends;)

So with that little look back at 2011, I want to end of by saying thank you.

This blog has continued to be an absolute haven of creativity and joy for me.

It's given me a way to...

though to be honest...it's also the reason I'm always buying so much- ha!!!

But that's not the point is it...the words do say what's most important...blogging really has given all of us an audience to share those special moments with and well, that sure does this girl's heart alot of good.

For all of us, my wish for 2012 is that we collectively through the idea of resolutions out the window and instead...a wish to each of us....

Here's to that promise my friends.

I hope we all start 2012 knowing that....

And that through blogging, we get to make it together.

How's that for some mushball cheese;)

Love you.

  1. Ahhh, all good stuff for you! How exciting!!! You are amazing, never let anyone tell you any different! You'll have to show the tour on your blog, as us unfortunates here in the States won't be able to see it. Sad. Oh, and business venture? MUST SHIP TO THE U.S.!!! Great job. Just think what next year will be like.

  5. Happy New Year to one of my favorite go-getters there ever was! You deserve everything you've worked for and you've delighted us greatly along the way. I must echo the commenter above in saying if I can't have it here in the US I don't want to see it!! I'm sort of kidding (not really).
