Beach and Design – Divine!!
Just spent a few days at The Post Card Inn in St. Petersburg Beach, Florida. I was very impressed with their creative and cost conscious design details.
Love this bookcase – I may steal this idea…..
What a great way to update vintage chairs.
More fabulous “re-do” chairs!
Finished concrete floor with meandering stamped pattern – love it!
Suspension “bridge” of stained wood houses lighting – low cost and creative solution. Also love the industrial fan.
Hiding those pesky pipes in plain sight.
And last but not least…. Why we’re here in the first place!
Busy weekend here in Central Florida. Lots to do with the Winter Park Art Festival, the annual Leu Garden plant sale, lots of music events for St. Patty’s day, so make sure you get out and enjoy the beautiful weekend.
This last weekend I spent some time relaxing (much needed) and being wined and dined to celebrate my birthday. Had some truly exceptional meals and experiences! So here are some recommendations from my b-day weekend, enjoy!

Had an exceptional dinner at Maxine’s on Shine. Love their new menu and our evening was topped off with a bottle of champagne and eloquent toast from Curt (and Maxine).
Lunch the next day was at Prato on Park Ave in Winter Park. Not the same personalized service we received at Maxine’s but a truly enjoyable meal none the less. The décor there is very well done, with a living plant wall, lots of brick and comfortable seating. And the food was delish!
To top off my weekend, my hubby bought me a very unique pair of earrings from a gallery in Winter Park, Tresor. They have an eclectic collection of art and lots of great jewelry. And rumor has it, that the owner will be bringing in some purses from NYC. Can’t wait to see those!
So when you are ready to celebrate your special day I hope you will support your local vendors. We are very fortunate to have such a great selection of quality places to choose from.
