Flat Stanley

This is my son's Flat Stanley visiting The Sabine River in Texas.  I recommend this "project" to anyone home with kids this summer.  Macky did it last fall as part of his kindergarten class.  You and your kids will have such fun reading about Flat Stanley and then making your own to mail off for an adventure.  Ask each person to take pictures of Stanley and write about where they took him and then mail him back to you.  We waited so excitedly to receive Stanley back and read all about his trips!

You can find the book here at amazon

Some of Macky's classmates Stanley's visited the great wall  of China, New York, Costa Rica!!
What a GREAT way to teach your kids about new places!!!!!

DIY weekend at Casa Pulitzer

OK, so this weekend is DIY extreme makeover home edition at Casa Pulitzer;)  Not sure how extreme it is actually going to be but I have HIGH hopes!!  Mac is going to be in the backyard with fresh mulch and adding "pops" of color to our jungle.  I am (in lieu of the office which needs a little more lead time) going to wallpaper the guest bathroom with family photos and things I deem worthy of decking the walls with.  I started pulling photos, framed canvases, and post cards last night!  This image has been in my idea bin for quite some time and I decided it is TIME to install this in my life:)

Wish me luck!!
Have a GREAT weekend!!!

Chic Work Space, New Home Office:)

I have been stalking design magazines for inspiration for my new work space at home.  All this blogging has me in NEED of a chic space at home to dream up design boards and implement them into my new baby (this blog)  LOL!  I have an odd little nook in my master bedroom that is now SCREAMING for this makeover:)  I also have an infatuation with black and white interiors and this is calling me, KP KP KP!!  I think this cabana look and a new 3G ipad could create the perfect storm for my blogging heaven a la casa!

xoxoxo

I love when I feel this excited about working;)

It is all about the little things!!

White Paint Calms The Soul

Ahh, there.. now isn't that better.  This relaxes me just looking at it.  When I moved to Florida (from Texas) I was smitten by the tropical lifestyle.  And although I still LOVE the beach, the ocean, and wearing flip flops year round I am headed back to my roots!  I painted every room in my home a different tropical color and filled every bowl with seashells and citrus.  It was fun but I must say white interiors with old woods and antiques is really just more where my heart is!  I am starting my DIY white paint  project very soon:)


I will post pics of the renovation and the BIG smile that is going to be on my face:)
