This week will go down in history as one of the top 5 craziest weeks of my life. Yes, I feel a little dramatic even just typing that but it really has been insane. My manuscript was due to my publisher on Monday and admittedly, I’m a few days late in sending it in. Oh …

My office/dressing room is 99% complete. I’m just being an insane perfectionist at this moment and still have a few more finishing touches to add. It’s overflowing with feminine clutter and fabulousness and is a dream to work and dress in. It inspires me daily. I’ve definitely shown you a few different sections of it …
As promised, here are the decor pieces/photos I shot the last time I was at The Sherman Oaks Antique Mall. Though they used to have more furniture than they keep in stock now, the home decor finds are ridiculously awesome. Seriously, I could go there every day and buy 75% of their inventory …but alas, …
Originally Published on: May 17, 2011 My lack of extra time and propensity for perfection are keeping me from finishing my office makeover in a timely fashion but since I’ve been teasing you with the idea that you will see it soon, I feel the need to show you a few things I’ve done in …

If the opportunity presents itself, meaning: if I have enough other cabinet space in the bathroom to permit it, which I just so happen to have at the moment, I love storing my nail polishes {& nail tools} in the medicine cabinet above the sink. Here’s why: It all stays in one place. It helps …
In or around 2008 when I had more free time and could read every single blog I came across on the internet, I found Sweet Paul, a mostly decor & food & fantastic photography blog and fell in love. But when I became depressed about living in the same dark condo for far too many …
For the first time ever, the Murietta League united as one at our house this morning to conduct their much anticipated 2010 Fantasy Football Draft. There were a few members who couldn’t make it and two more hiding back in my office for a very intense couple of hours full of harassing & haggling as …

When we moved into our house in January I knew I would finally get my grandma’s antique desk that I have loved and cherished since I was a kid. Originally an antique, in the late 60’s/early 70’s, my grandpa painted it this olive green with gold leaf accents as well as hand painted the little …
I began this blog originally in 2007 because I thought I was pregnant. Naming it “baby! baby!”, I wanted to document my pregnancy as such. When I found out I wasn’t pregnant, the blog quickly changed to …love Maegan {the name I had used previously to brand hand-made clothing & accessories I made & sold} …
I believe my husband was hoping the new house would somehow cure my anxiety. And for the record, I too was on that hope wagon …just at the edge of it though, as “curing” my anxiety seems like stuff only miracles are made of. In truth, I have been fighting it for the last couple …
