HEY 2020!

Hello and Happy New Year my friends! The only thing that kept running through my head about today’s post was this song by the Chambers Brothers: Time Has Come Today . Enjoy.

In reflecting over the last year I’m thrilled with where I am on this first day of the New Year. I continue to have some of the same goals as last year: to exercise and to keep up with the clutter in the basement.

I achieved some of my goals for the Chalet Interiors in 2019 New Rugs for the Livingroom and the Pink Walls in the upstairs Hall. 

Some design/decor on the wish-list or 2020 around the Chalet: Painting the Kitchen (possibly new cabinet knobs), Painting the stairwell to the basement, A new Diningroom pendent, We need new cushions for the Diningroom chairs, A new light for the Upstairs Hall, I’m mulling over a few tweaks to the porch or more to the diningroom… we’ll see. New pillows of course… I have a bunch of fabric I want to review and sew up some new covers and swap some out and New Art! Always New Art my friends!

I’m so pleased with where my business is - the blog readership has grown - I was thrilled to incorporate interviews into my pieces this past year. I love learning about people - look for more this year. I was pleased to have my first partnership with Great Big Canvas. I look forward to similar opportunities with other fun brands. I’m also toying around with the idea of adding a resale shop - instead of consigning items - just sell them here.

Of course the part of the business I am over the moon about - the most exciting part is sharing my creativity with more clients in 2020!

I enjoyed many delightful trips into Manhattan to marvel at Art and more at the Guggenheim, the Met, the American Museum of Natural History, listen to music, revel in feats of Ballet and eat wonderful creations. I was blessed to meet up with some of my sweet IG friends too!

I was able to read or listen to (thank you Hoopla) 28 titles in 2019! Woo Hoo! I became the moderator of the Great Titles Book Club through church and I’m really enjoying it. It’s the first book club I’ve been involved with.

We were blessed to share fun excursions to the Mountains and the Beach with family. Nothing better than time with those we love! My family is happy and healthy and I am truly blessed.

A sweet friend reminded me it’s always wonderful to be learning - In 2020 I want to be a student - I want to learn more about design, cooking and art and I hope to always be learning how to be the best human I can be. I’m eager to see where 2020 takes me and I hope you are as well!
