White Linen Love

This bedroom (click on photo to enlarge) is just so relaxed and comfortable looking.  Those floor-to-ceiling shutters - I love natural light pouring in, and how the light changes the white, depending on the weather.

Your Investment Home - First Class Resort

Liz Williams, found via Atlanta Homes Magazine, of a recent project she completed on Amelia Island. What your renters are looking for, when they think of how they would like to spend a few weeks on Martha's Vineyard.  If you want to see your property booked for the summer...take note...a little re-furbishing (paint and crisp, new bed linens in the least),  goes a long way.

The Tween Room

Definition:  TWEEN
A less-than-12, more-than-7 girl, with the mind of a 20-year-old.  One who listens to your choice, and chooses the opposite.  She's pink or blue, and if she likes blue, she hates pink.  She's Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber, and not Hannah Montana (anymore).  Too old to go to Flying Horses (unless no one's watching).  Prefers an Orange Julius, at DQ Edgartown, over a cone dipped with sprinkles.  Playdates are passe, it's "getting together", please!

It's about now, that the room needs an overhaul, if she hasn't begged and pleaded with catalog in hand, already.  Oh, and twin beds...yes...must have a place for her BFF to stay.
