My signature colors...

Remember that line from Steel Magnolias where Shelby says her signature colors are Blush and Bashful?

I don't know how many times I've repeated that line during my marriage, but it's around a zillion.

Just guessing.

Why does he think I will like a purple couch?

Hence, his nickname of Mr. Magoo.

I have stuck to a general color theme with revolving pops of color forever.

 Brown, green, cream, blue, orange.

I don't do red.

I tried, really I did.

And yes, the Steiff donkey bridle disturbs me, but I can't bring myself to change it.

(Did I just hear Lisa scream?  She found him up in Tennessee and blogged about him.  He's the sweetest and I love my Steiff animals, so I snagged him.  Donkey is hard to come by!)

I won't do it, Lisa.  Promise. ;)

In my next life, I think I'd like to come back as a forest sprite.

The colors of the forest are the hues that calm me.

My  home has various shades of these colors through out, and as someone who likes changing things around constantly from time to time,

this works well for me.

 Even during the holidays, the color scheme remains.

Very complimentary to Henry's fur, don't you think?

That's Dan.  The Deer.

So far, I have refused to remove his scarf and juniper wreath.

I like him all cheeky like that.

He may have come from the country,

but he's got flair.

These embroidered towels were made into curtains for our side door.  I love them there. 

Every October- March, they hang here.

Yes, I realize lots of these are Christmas photos...

I was too busy making/eating cookies to post very many during the holidays.

Well, I was!

But remember- we are looking at my signa- cha cuhluhs.

That's Nemesis hanging on the hall tree.

Sophie's nemesis.

She wants him and she wants him bad.

She's got short legs but that girl can jump.

He must remain up high and unreachable or he will meet a most unsavory end.

You didn't think my pajamas or my dogs were out of the mix, did you?

 I'll do a separate post on the painted tables.

 I love my painted tables.  I have collected a large amount of painted pieces over the years.

They are still some of my very favorite pieces of furniture.

I'll leave you with a photo I had some fun doing in Picnik.

So sad.

I'm unhappy with  you, Google.

Too many changes.

Please stop making things difficult.

Hope you have a great week!

And a big hug to all the new peeps that are following on Linky.
I'm so looking forward to seeing what y'all have in store for us this year.

I'll be introducing a new color into the mix upstairs soon.

Pink!

Stay tuned.  : )

Until next time,

Linking up with these ladies:

Cowgirl Up! Tuesdays
