Fall Hues At The MDC Casa :)

Hello to the new week. We are welcoming Fall in my neck of the woods. Now, you may call it a cliche but for me Fall means...... orange, reds, rust and gold :)  My way to decorate for the season is to bring the Fall colors indoors! It makes my home home look warm and cosy and ready for winter!

I am still working on the makeover but here is a sneak peek...........notice the colors :)

Have a great week my lovely readers.

The beautiful autumn sun falling on my Grandmother's silver tray!

I made a quick trip to World Market this weekend and found these really cute gift tags on clearance. I love them. They are perfect for the festive season. I am getting ready to ship some stuff with the new tags :)

Coming up soon........the Festival Collection at The Shop at My Dream Canvas.

Friday Musings and My Home

I am very glad I took this picture yesterday of my living room. Today we are finally back to how I remember Seattle. Yes, it is nippy, dull and grey :) It has truly has been a glorious few months with absolute no rain and high temperatures. However, I am looking forward to the new season. I love Fall......there is something so beautiful about seeing the leaves change color.

Are you excited about the weekend? I have something fun planned for this Saturday and  I am looking forward to it. Next week at MDC brings another Home Tour that I am eager to share with all of you.

Have an awesome Friday and a Fabulous Weekend!!

A Beach Bungalow

When a well known interior designer saw this house and its location, this is what he had to say. " He said that the painting was outside the window and that whatever happened inside shouldn’t compete with it."

This advice struck with the lady of the house who did the interiors of this beach bungalow herself. The owner Cathy loves a good bargain. She sewed simple slipcovers for her couches and chairs, fashioned side tables out of old wine-barrel lids, used hopsack for her curtains and gave her existing furniture a fresh coat of paint.

There is something so laid back and beautiful about this home on the beach in Cape Town, South Africa. This to me is the perfect place to spend a lifetime by the sea.......the craggy mountains add to the drama and beauty of the place.
