Hi! I'm Julie, a feisty, redhead from Grand Island, NY, who's passionate about decorating our home with my own unique style. I don't follow the crowd, but trust my gut instead. I hope to inspire you to try some of my ideas. I also love to cook and share my secret recipes. My family begs me to make my homemade meatballs and pizza. I hope you will try them and hang out with me for a while. Click here to contact me.

We Painted our Cape Cod Style Home Periwinkle!
Welcome to our Cape Cod style home during Spring in the Midwest! It’s still pretty cold here, but the sun is out today! I thought it would be a great time to inspire you all with some paint! We took a risk with periwinkle (at least it looks like periwinkle in person) a couple years ago, but we love it against the crisp white and chocolate brown! Some of these were taken today and you will notice lots of yard work that needs attention…if it would just stop being so windy and cold!!Rick and I have worked very hard over the last 3 1/2 years getting this house back in shape. We still have lots to do, but we sure are proud of the improvements thus far and I love sharing it with you all not to boast, but to inspire. XO

Off front porch…had to put this in here for fun! That was 2 Winters ago! No school that day!!
This was shot 4/27/12…lots of yard work to do! Hope the deer don’t eat those fresh Hosta’s!
BEFORE
We had to get rid of a lot of trees…they were ruining the deck and causing other issues. This use to be a forest.
I told you!
One Winter’s worth of twigs! Time for a bonfire guys!
We have 2 swans that stay here year round…Paul & Jennifer. They are very much in love & the babies will be here soon!
God Bless America!
Stop by again soon!
