Cottages and Castles

Cottages and Castles

Recently I helped David set up and tear down a rather extensive sound system for a live music event we did in Tulsa. As I was helping carry microphone stands and speakers to the trailer we haul equipment in, David said, “You always wanted to be a roadie, right?”. I replied, “No, I always wanted…

Favorite Houses graphic

Ever since I can remember, houses have fascinated me. I’ve been binge-watching Gilmore Girls before the new episodes come out and I have fallen in love with Lorelai’s and Rory’s house. That made me think about other television and movie houses I love. So here, in no particular order, are my favorite houses from television…

I’ve been interested in home design ever since I was a tiny little girl “playing house” with my dolls. In junior high I sent away for information about becoming an interior decorator. So it should come as no surprise that some of my favorite blogs focus on design. My Favorite Home Design Blogs Here are…

La Maison ~ Home, the French Way

March 1, 2016 By Deanna Piercy 9 Comments

Ever since I can remember, I’ve loved to “play house”.  No matter where I was, I nested.  At home, my room was my sanctuary and I loved making it pretty and comfortable.  Next door at my grandparents’ house, I would play by the hour in a corner of her den, setting up a little “house”…

Creating a Beautiful Life ~ My Bedside Table

February 23, 2016 By Deanna Piercy 16 Comments

Creating a beautiful life is something each of us has within us the power to do. We can intentionally create the life we desire.

October 12, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

My POW (Project Of the Week) was to decorate for fall. I started yesterday and pretty much finished up today. I still have some things left in my fall decorating box which I may add in the coming days and I do want to get some more pumpkins and some gourds. But for the most…

French Friday…La Maison (Part Un)

July 24, 2010 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I had grand plans for a lovely post all about French home life and interior design but this has been “one of those days”.  Not necessarily a bad day but a rather busy one.  I had a hair appointment at 10:30 this morning and a few errands to run afterwards.  I then had a brief…
