This Friday (January 18th) I will be selecting one boudoir beauty to win both of these ladylike gifts to use in their boudoir. The lucky winner could be you! Gift #1 – Vintage inspired Mermaid …

Lady Head Vase Obsession
A little over three years ago I learned of a lovely little item that is perfectly suited for a boudoir. The lady head vase. I was reading the spring 2008 issue of O at Home when I came upon an article showcasing the home of event planner, Mindy Weiss, who is best known for her …
Grandma Ellen
This past Sunday marked one year from my Grandmother’s passing. So, I wanted to take a moment today to create a post in her honor. I was very close to my grandma Ellen, who I also called “Grameo” (I guess as a child I heard somebody on TV say Daddy-O and thought it would translate …

Boudoir Treasure…Vintage Chanel Print
What a find! I was searching “vintage Chanel” on Ebay, and found this original vintage print from 1944. You know I snatched it up real quick. Just imagine it…in all of it’s black and white glory, framed and hanging upon the wall in my dream boudoir. In the small print it says, “A VERY FINE …
Upcycling: Granny Gold to Girly Glamour
I love it when I find a garage sale where you truly feel like you’re stepping back in time (as long as it’s from a fabulous era). I stopped at a garage sale this past fall, and it was clear that everything belonged to an elderly woman who had held onto her precious items her …
