Romantic Homes November 2014

I am going to get ahead of the game
this month.
Let's see what  is in the November issue of

Here is a wonderful wreath by
Melinda Graham/Surroundings by Melinda
She gives a tutorial on how to make this!
As you turn the pages you will find a 
CUTE CROCHETED WREATH
put together by our friend, 
I just adore Judy. She has had a lot
going on her life this past few months.
I was so glad to see her featured here.
I hope it has been a bright spot for her.
Isn't that CUTE!?!?!!

While I do have some color in my home
I am always fascinated by those homes that
have such beautiful soft interiors.
This is from Nelly Vintage Home.
She has the most beautiful eye for things.
well, I'm sure BOTH her eyes are beautiful-
you know what I mean-
Isn't this gorgeous-also from Nelly Vintage Home
photos by Jo-Anne Coletti

This home belongs to
Lori Ressa Lavender Fields
She has a beautiful Craftsman style home.
Isn't this a cute piece?
There is a full spread of her home in the magazine.
Then there is 
The Little Jewel Box
This is just one photo of many, many of her home.
This is the dining room in the article titled
Countryside Chic.
It belongs to Kate Forman-Kate Forman Designs.
and this the master bedroom in that article.
Isn't that a beautiful study of grey and pink?

I am sure you can still buy your own copy of
Romantic Homes to see the full articles.
Tell 'em I sent you!  
That and $1.00 will get me a 
Senior Coffee at McDonald's.
NEVER thought I would be old enough to be getting a
SENIOR COFFEE!  
Seriously?  sigh.....


Gotta hunt down the SweetCheeks today
so she can do the drawing for 
THE GIVEAWAY.
I'll be back with the winner tomorrow!

  1. Diana, I was thrilled to see Judy's wreath in the pages on Romantic Homes. I look through my copy over and over. I really enjoy it. Talk about being a senior, the only time I get checked out any more, is at the register. LOL. Hope your weekend is great. xoxo,Susie

  4. So many beautiful things. The wreath in the first pic is so pretty, it even has little teacups in it - adorable! So happy for Judy - her wreath would be perfect for Christmas or even Valentine's Day. Love Kate Forman's dining room too. Thanks for sharing, Diana!

  5. so much talent displayed in these rooms, its awe inspiring for sure. Here in Canada the senior discount varies, some places its 50 years of age, others 60 and the some 65 years of age, keeps one guessing, lol,

  15. W-O-W!!!! How do those women do such home decorations? Must be a full time job.

    And non traditional Christmas colors. I've never been able to really do that. The whole fireplace wall, in our Family/Hearth room, is red brick. So nothing but traditional colors, "go"... Other than some gold/maroon.

    Oh I don't want to thing about Christmas decorating yet. -grin-

  23. I already received mine and I need to go and re-read it. I get so excited that I don't take the time to ready everything. I am flipping through the pages and then I go back and read all the articles. It really came late in October this time, guess they are changing their mailing date.
    Have a great weekend.

  43. I love that you do these monthly features! Such beauty in all the photos! I had to giggle at your senior coffee comment...our local grocery store gives out free coffee to those 55 and older. I keep telling my hubby he's got 5 more years until he can cash in on that. Lol!
