The Nature of Spring....
This week as i started noticing that my grass shrubs are starting to turn green again i realized wow spring is truly going to be in action..So this is what inspired me for the week and made me want to blog about it, Its my favorite time of the year because i think its the prettiest and i enjoy seeing all the blooms and greenery. Plus the weather is usually really nice despite the storms that come through. So this spring season take a little time to admire all the beautiful scenery that we call nature.

Cupcake Heaven....
J rae's
J rae's is a great cupcake company located near downtown fort worth.. Before i explain my wonderful experience i had when i went to the shop let me just say that the cupcakes are absolutely great i will definitely go back.. If you haven't been yet you should go..
Once i arrived at the shop as soon as i walked in i was greeted at the counter by one of the friendly employees. I thought it was great how knowledgeable everyone was about the products. As i placed my order they had everything ready in just minutes.. After ordering i took a few moments to take in the space and watch the surroundings and i noticed that they have a wide range of customers such as the business man to the average joe. I also admired their interior i felt as though the color scheme, design had a whimsical sense to it and the colors of lime green,hot pink, black and white strips were bold. I also love the play of mirrors through out the space from the mirrored wall to the end tables that were mirrored. I thought the cherry on the sundae was the small antique chandellier that was adorned with sky blue tear drop and round crystals.. The only thing i didnt like the space was the lack of pizzaz in design not much caught my eye and jumped out at me.

Ugly to beautiful...
The things i would change in this space would be to take out everything and gut the bathroom. Then i would paint a warm nuetral tone on the walls put up crown molding and take out the large mirror and put in two custom mirrors and find some great granite to use as a counter top, find some great cabinetry for storage,a couple of great sinks and a nuetral large tiles with some kind of bold accent color, some beautiful light fixtures. Plus to finish off the room bring in some great accesories to add to my design..

This a Candice Olson Signature design.. The reason i chose this design is because im very inspired by this style and it reflects my style and taste, also resembles my own home alittle. I love the rich color palette even though the majority of it is muted and neutral theres still a richness about it, my favorite part of the design is the traditional elements of the space, how she mixed a few other style in the room also.. I give this room a A+
