OVERSTOCK.COM PHOTO SHOOT

I am lucky enough to have had Scott Davis shoot my house twice now - once for Fox Group Construction's portfolio, and the other time for Overstock.com.

It was quite the ordeal to have them come. We basically had to move out of our house for two days. They moved all of our furniture on the main floor into other rooms, but they were great to work with and really professional. They put everything back to its original place when it was all done, and it was like they were never there. Pretty impressive considering how much they had to move around. You can see for yourself in the photos.

I never actually saw this campaign, but Scott sent me his favorite photos from the shoot, (which turned out great). It was entertaining for me to see my home in a whole new light. It's amazing what different furnishings do to the same home.

Quite the change, right?!

BEST LIVING ROOMS OF 2012 - APARTMENT THERAPY

I hate to be lazy and repost another website's post, but when there is a great post such as Apartment Therapy's Best Living Room's of 2012 I can't help myself! (full disclosure: I'm a little under the weather and don't have the energy to be original today :)

My favorite thing about Apartment Therapy is that they post real spaces, meaning not overly styled and crazy expensive spaces. As with most everyone else, Apartment Therapy is a favorite design website of mine.
Anyway, check out the whole post here. Here are my favorite's from their favorites!

APARTMENT THERAPY'S BEST LIVING ROOMS OF 2012

Super cool rooms, right? I love how each room has so much personality and great use of color and different styles mixed together. I have to laugh at Nick's Grad School Digs green couch a little. You can tell that couch was probably inherited but what a great find! And Maria's Flat has the best use of color! Those walls look beautiful next to the blue chair. 

Hope you all have a great weekend! I'll be fighting this cold/flu I have going on hopefully in time to get back to work on Monday. Times like these make me grateful for my healthy days (being sick is so annoying!)
