B”H Good morning and Shavua Tov! You might have seen on Facebook that last week I was over at Chai & Home along with four other Jewish lifestyle bloggers. We each shared our best tip on “High Holiday success,” (defined to us, the interviewees, as experiencing the Holidays with style and joy). Thank you Dena for inviting me to participate and for getting me to think about this. If you haven’t
B”H If you’re here from Little Green Notebook, welcome, and I hope you stay for a while. It’s a lot of fun here ;-). If you missed my announcement on Facebook, Little Green Notebook mentioned my DIY Faux Marble tutorial as her inspiration for her own faux marble top creation. Thank You, Jenny! And if you missed that post, you can find it here. Revisiting that DIY post, reminded me of
B”H Hi and welcome to another episode of Wednesday Wink. Today’s Wink is such a special treat. If you’ve ever wondered whether your actions have an impact, hold on to your seats, because today’s Wink is guaranteed to inspire you and get you off your seats to go do more of whatever good thing you’re already doing! Thank you to reader and friend Diani for sharing her family’s beautiful story with us.
B”H I got such nice feedback last time I posted an “unedited” design blog post. Some of you said, “it’s like hearing my brain talk” and “it’s the raw, unedited you”. Well yes, it is! And truthfully, just like working on ourselves is a process (and we talk plenty about this here), so is designing a home. Getting hung up on achieving perfection is a futile and somewhat self-defeating exercise.

B”H Shavua Tov, everyone! Did you realize that we’ll be celebrating the New Year in just three months!? You might remember my calendar rant dilema from this post. I am still faithful to my calendar/agenda that I worked so hard to “customize” then. I have it with me all the time. But that might change very soon… ¡Shavua Tov, amigas! ¿¡Ya se dieron cuenta de que en sólo tres meses vamos
B”H Chodesh Tov, beautiful ladies! Today is the first day of the month of Av– the month in which our precious Beit Hamikdash (Temple) was destroyed. Although we have been in a state of mourning since the 17 of Tamuz, we intensify the mourning starting today, until the 9th of Av– the day when the Temple’s destruction and many other tragedies occurred to the Jewish people. ¡Chodesh Tov, lindas chicas!
B”H If you have DIY’ed in your lifetime, you know that part of the beauty of DIYing (has that already been accepted as an official word?) is that usually there’s very little to loose and very much to gain- if not in great results, then in gained experience, patience, perseverance, creativity, courage, humility… (sounds like parenting, right?) Now, when a DIY is a success…oh that feeling! Today I’m showing you my
B”H Congratulations, the winner of the Dainty Jewell’s Givaway is Golda Huthchinson! Golda, check your inbox for an email from me. :-) This week I had a thought about prayer. On Tueday afternoon, I was sitting by the pool talking to an old friend. She was asking about my son’s camp. I told her that we can email him, or send snail mail, but we’re not allowed to call him,
B”H It’s been a while since I posted a Wednesday Wink. Thank you to all of you who have recently called and written with new Wednesday Winks for me to post.
