When I first explained to a friend that the new laundry room that they saw on my blog was actually underneath our stairs, they didn't believe me. It was only until I had them over for a coffee & tour that they saw what I was talking about so I thought I would take you guys back into our new laundry room we created in partnership with Home Depot Canada to show you it complete and that it really is underneath a staircase!
I love to wear skirts! They are so versatile. You can mix and match them with blouses, sweaters, or pair them with jackets. They can be worn with tights and flats or tights and boots. You can change the look by simply changing your shoes from flats to stilettos. Because I love skirts, I am always on the look out for an interesting design and I've found a few that I thought you might like too! I wish I could see a complete front view of this skirt. But regardless, I really like the asymmetrical hem and the side seam welt pocket. A wrap skirt is always lovely. I love how they played with the pattern on this skirt. I'm sure you've seen this skirt on Pinterest. It's a very popular pin. But it derserves to be looked at again as it is such a lovely and dramatic design. Okay, we need Bunny of La Sewista for this one, especially since she is a smocking guru. I REALLY want to know how to do this!!! I don't care for the little buttons, but I do love the technique. Simple, yet so graceful. Here's another interesting wrap. I think this is so pretty. Look closely and you'll see that inside the center of the drape is a zipper. Sadly the zipper looks a bit off, but it's a great idea nonetheless. Since this skirt is in white, it's a little difficult to see, but if you look closely, you'll see that it has very interesting lines. What a lovely take on a pleated skirt. A cute take on a kilt design. This skirt makes me want to throw my sandals on and head for Bermuda!!! It just screams summer. I love how the scalloped edge was taken around the hem and then up the center back to accent the vent opening. Such a comfortable looking skirt. From Eileen Fisher. I believe that Marcy Tilton has a Vogue pattern that is quite similar. I love everything about this skirt. Take a striped fabric and add godets. Lovely. Now for a little comic relief ;) I'll say this, it's interesting!!! I have some fabulous surprises up my sleeve for you this week, so please be sure to check back. Also, the voting for the Get Your Motors Running Contest ends tonight so be sure to get your vote in if you haven't done so already. Have a wonderful day and a great week!!!! Rhonda

If you have an attic, a closet, or even a junk drawer, I guarantee you can create a unique background for your close-up photos! My favorite thing about macro photography is that you can work on the tiniest sets; and tiny sets don’t need too much of any one material to fill your frame. You could create a stunning scene in a shoebox if you tried. I’m sure you have a ton of odds and ends that would make excellent backgrounds in your macro photography, so get digging! Here are a few ideas to get you started.
The winter coat, what was once something that spent more time hanging in my closet than on my body has now become one my most necessary garments. When I first came back to Chicago, I had a coat that I thought would keep me warm, but it was like wearing a t-shirt in a blizzard!! So needless to say, coats have become a very important part of my wardrobe. I need to make a new coat this year, not that I don't have quite a few, but I do need to replace one. While looking around for ideas, I came across a few details that I thought were rather pretty, so I thought I would share them. I love everything about this first coat, pretty, feminine and fun sleeves! Pretty collar. A vintage coat. Great shoulder detail and I love a swing coat. Allows for lots of layers underneath. Sleek. Check out the double welt on the pockets. Another great collar. I love the touch of a ruffle at the waistline. A very interesting cocoon. Love the asymmetrical detail of the collar. Sleeves are a little short for a Chicago winter, but I love the black detailing. A zippered back vent. Fun! I really like this coat. Check out the sleeves. This little coat is from Burberry. I like the unexpected flap in the skirt. This is all out fun. The only detail that I don't care for is the pleated detail down the center front. Not for winter, but pretty detail nonetheless. Another not for winter jacket, but I really like the detailing on the skirt. I was thinking that this might be something I could adapt for the felted wool jacket I recently made. So pretty. Love the mix of wool and knit. Another coat great for layering. I rarely wear short little coats, keeps my top warm while my bottom freezes!!! But I think this is so nice. It just needs to be stretched into a long version :) Love the bag too! And finally, a not for winter coat as it is, but I do like the basic shape. It just needs a collar. Maybe the collar from the white coat up above. Have you come across a fun coat design? I would love to see it!! Just leave a comment and a link. Have a wonderful week! Rhonda
