A Place For Everything

I have joined a group of bloggers who will be detailing our efforts to finally get organized over the coming year. Our group began in January, but being a little disorganized (ok, a LOT disorganized) I wrote my first post today.

Hopefully, my mother is still speaking to me.

1912 Bungalow Decorated For Christmas, 2006

It has taken us a while to get here, but welcome to our new site design. This site started in 2003 as a way for us to share all the work we were doing to restore our Craftsman bungalow with friends and family. The site now gives me the opportunity to share all the things and people who inspire me.

I am very excited to announce our Make The Season Bright Contest. We want to see interior or exterior photos of your house decorated for the holidays! Schoolhouse Electric Co. is generously giving a light fixture and shade to the winner. Second prize is a $75 Home Depot gift card and third prize is a $50 Home Depot gift card. Just submit a photo of your house decked out for the holidays to enter to win. Voting starts December 15th. The winners will be announced December 24th. The house with the highest number of votes wins. Enter today!

Please let us know if you encounter any problems with the contest or the new design.
