Have fun at the beach.

I always feel that I need new creative ideas about what goes on the walls. Seems like I have a formula of large picture with something around it that I repeat over and over. New ideas would be wonderful.
Please enter me and I will go right now and put a note on my blog for you.
I can always use another decorating book and some new inspiration! Please enter me in your blog!!!!
I posted about your giveaway on Frannycakes this morning!
Fran
Please enter me in your giveaway. I'd like to learn more about arranging.
Hope you and your DH have a great time at the beach!
Rhoda,
In hopes to win this book I have posted. I love your BLOG and look forward to it every day.
I really enjoyed seeing your time with your folks. I hope to move to the south in the near future. My son is there and I miss him so much!!!
If winning the book helps me decorate as good as you maybe then I'll start a blog.

I've lived in my house for a year now, and there is NOTHING on a single wall. I sure could use some help!
I always am needing decorating inspiration especially when it comes to the cohesiveness of my home. Sometimes I am random and can have lots of different "themes" going on in my home. Drives my husband nuts...but I just tell him its "eclectic" :)
Thanks for entering me :)
I'm needing new ideas for window treatments in my den and living room/dining area. Have a GREAT week in Gulf Shores!
I have been in such a decorating slump since we moved in June that a new book might get me inspired again!
I'll add a mention about your giveaway on my post this morning.
Hope you have a great week on the beach. We woke up to a low of 38 here in North Alabama today so I am really jealous!
~Jen
Thanks for hosting a giveaway Rhoda!
I already have this book so I am not entering. I love it! You are really going to be "chilling" this week. It is cold today, isn't it? We are planning to go to Panama City the week before Thanksgiving. My dad has a condo but they also used their time share to get another one for the week so we will have our own home. My husband and two oldest won't be able to go because of school and work but I am taking the three younger kids. I don't care if it is cold- love to just look at the ocean and hear it. The Canadian snowbirds will be out in that water with it being 40's outside- it is crazy to see!
I'm always up for a good decorating book. I'm not sure what I'd like to learn from it...but I'll know it when I see it ;-)
OH please count me in ! I need every bit of help I can get
Have you seen my house...you would know why I need this book LOL
What a great give-away Rhonda. I love decorating books so please include me. Enjoy your time away at the beach - what a nice time of the year to enjoy the beach!
I have seen this and flipped through the pages. There is some gorgeous stuff. I like this book because so many things are beautiful when simply displayed. I think sometimes I have way too much stuff going on in my decorating. I need to learn to simplify.
Enjoy your time at the beach and I shall keep my fingers crossed. This looks like a fabulous book!
wonderful book. It would be great to help me help my husband get the houses he has listed to sell.
Enter me! Have fun at the beach, you lucky girl. :)
I love looking at decorating books. :) Our library has tons of them, but they are mostly too many decades old for me to enjoy and glean ideas from. I want color pictures, not black and whites!
Please enter me in your giveaway. I would love to decorate my patio. It's so bland but I don't know where to start.
Great give-away! Books are always nice!
Have fun at the gulf...I'm jealous!!
Love your blog! I would love to learn more about furniture arrangement and making over thrift store finds. Have a great time at the beach!
Just letting you know that I posted a link on my blog! Thanks for a second chance to win!
I would like to learn to decorate in ways that express our family and who we are... not necessarily what's in style...
Oh I would love this! I have just bought my first home and have lots to do to it yet, to make it "mine". I love do-it-yourself projects!
I have lived in my high-rise condo for five years and I'm STUCK on how to pull it all together. I'm an interior design school drop out... I should have a few tricks up my sleeve... I have such a creative block...sheesh!
We've renovated the kitchen (major!)and one of the bathrooms, but my two bugaboos are trying to get the "box" feeling out of the bedroom (using trim and moldings) and a suitable furniture arrangement for the living/dining area. The room has odd angles.
I've got a niece who just graduated from Samford in interior design. She'll be moving back to Nashville soon. Hope to be signing her on to the projects while she finds a job here in town!
Came over here via Fran's blog. Don't need to be in the raffle, just wanted to say I'll be adding you to my reader...
Give my regards to O'Carrs in Homewood. Have a chicken salad fruit plate for me!
:-D)
I need to figure out how to pull it all together so that my rooms arent just a hodge podge of everything.
Have fun at the beach!

I would love help decorating my whole house. Most of the time I know I could use all the help I can get. Thanks you
I would love to learn about editing in design! I think I pile too much on.
Would LOVE the book!

Have a fabulous beachy week.

Being a military wife it seems we are always moving somewhere new, with different sized rooms than the last place! I would love to learn how to arrange furniture better; it seems I always do it the same way...like I am in a rut. Thank you for doing this giveaway and please enter me! :) Have a wonderful day!
Rhoda, thanks for the opportunity to win such a great giveaway item!
I would/need to learn more about furniture arranging. I have a large great room and master bedroom that are in dire need of proper arrangement!
Oh I'm so jealous you get to spend time on the beach! What a relaxing get away for you and the hubby....have a wonderful time! For me learning more about "arranging" things is a biggie. I love the stuff I purchase...but then I never know where to put it to really make it shine!
My husband and I are planning a move from our current house into a new one with an open floor plan. Going from a place with individual rooms to one with open space has me stymied when it comes to decorating, so my interest is in learning how to deal with decorating an open plan.
Me, me! I want to enter! If I win that book, I want to read more about the outside decorating tips. I have a patio area that is in desperate need of some help before next spring. Why not get it done this winter!
Please enter me in your giveaway, I could really use the book, not only at home also great to get ideas for decorating antique booths from books, how exciting it'd be to win.
Hope you have a great time at the beach!
Tracy
Oh please do enter me in the giveaway. I love all parts of a book like this but I really enjoy seeing their vignettes and wall hangings. Also how furniture is arranged in rooms....OK that was more than one wasn't it....lol

I'd love to be considered for your generous giveaway. I've been in the same house for 16+ years and have only decorated a few of the rooms.

I would actually love to give this to my daughter. Not that I don't need tips as well but she's interested in going for interior designer and I think she would love this book.
There's not a whole lot I know about decorating, so I could really use this book. My walls are still all white, and I'm probably breaking a million unwritten style rules that I know nothing about. I'd love to win!

Hi, Rhoda ~ I'm having such FUN tonight, "running around" enjoying everyone's blogs that I "know" or "know of" from GOLLUM'S and SUSAN'S ("Between Naps on the Porch"). Nope, I do NOT have a "blog", so I can't "enter" for that gr888 book~~~ I just really enjoyed reading your blog, & seeing your lovely home... and wanted to tell you that!!!

Sorry, but I had to laugh when I read about your 'chilling at the beach'. Considering it was in the 30s (!!!) here last night, I reckon you got more chilling than you bargained for?
Re this post... Can this stuff be learned? I think my house could do with a new owner for a while. I'm like a gallery visitor... I appreciate art, but couldn't create it to save me. I have some lovely things but it's a rare serendipitous occasion that they come together to form a beautiful setting.
I have a little something for you here.
I need help decorating my outdoor space!
i am so decorating challenged! i need help to cure the "my taste is all in my mouth" syndrome i seem to suffer from! lol

I'd like more ideas on those little touches that make it even cozier. :) This looks like a great book.
I would love to learn more about colors... and also pairing country antiques with comfort (not sure if that would be in the book but it's an interest of mine).
Hmmmm. I'd love to learn how to tie together different themes and pieces. Like tying together different patterns, it's not my forte.
I hope you're having fun on your trip right now. You're going to have one FULL inbox when you return! I'd love to learn more about decorating on a budget. I'm a big fan of antique store finds, and placing them with contemporary pieces intrigues me.
I'm also doing a giveaway at my blog if you'd like to check it out and enter.....www.theotherhuse.blogspot.com
I'd love some new ideas for bathrooms...tired of the ones i see around here;)
My hubby has given me free reigns on redecorating our house, but I have no idea what to even do! I really want to redo our bedroom, as it's not decorated at all. We even have blankets hanging as curtains.
Hi Rhoda!

Rhoda, I'm excited to be entering this contest. I read your outstanding blog daily but for some reason was not able to comment. Just started a blog of my own, so maybe now my computer will cooperate with comments! When I figure out how, I will add this contest to my blog!
I would love for you to talk more about placing groupings of accessories together.
You have been boo-ed. Copy the boo photo and put it on your sidebar so everyone will know you already have been boo-ed. Then, find some friends to boo.
I wonder if you will even see this amidst all your comments!

Please enter me! My big problem is furniture arrangement- I can't seem to get away from lining things up all around the room!!!
Well, It looks like I'm #194, so my chances are a bit slim, but I'll give it a try anyway because I love decorating books! This is my first time on your blog. Looks like a lot of fun. I'll have to come back again! Thanks!
I'm interested in making my bedroom more cozy!

This carnival is a fun way to find new blogs to read.
As for decorating, what I REALLY need is a HOUSEKEEPER. And it's so very difficult deciding what to keep, and what to let go!! :(
I would love to learn more about accessorizing. I never quite feel the room is complete when I'm finished. I think I'm always afraid of over doing it.
I've been wanting this book--checked it out from the library and loved it. Great giveaway!
Hope you're having a wonderful vacay, Rhoda. Sounds good to me. :-)
Hi Rhoda,
Not sure if this give away is open to everyone (I live in Australia)but is worth a try huh. I know how I want my home to look but have trouble tying everything in together to get the right *finished look*.
Anyway hope you are enjoying your time away

Rhoda, heart and home mean everything to my family. My sister turned me on to your blog and I've gotten such pleasure sharing in your life. You have such a way of being creative and and seeing things "with new eyes" to create such beauty and comfort. I'd like the book as inspiration of course as I feather my nest. Linda at Ygeast@aol.com
