So in love with this tree nest — photo taken by my friend Emily on her recent visit to treebones in Big Sur, CA.

This is my kind of fort. A fort just for mama.

Amy Johnson of Homegrown

Not long ago, I was in Home Decor and So Much More! and came across the lovely black dining room of CafeMom Ambyr. Isn't it gorgeous? I've never considered painting any room in my home black, and surely not a dining room.

However, after seeing these photos, I think differently.

If you're wishing away this cold weather for the sake of your garden, try bringing that floral love indoors through decorating.

Here are some links I love to give you ideas of ways to incorporate floral patterns and designs into your interior. Best of all, you don't have to water these!

Sense memories are often unforgettable because they are experienced through one of the five senses — sight, sound, touch, smell, or taste. These kinds of memories hold fast in our long-term memory.

I asked several CafeMoms to share one of their favorite childhood sense memories — one unshakable and positive memory that has stayed with them since they were girls.

The answers I got are downright poetic. Completely beautiful. And even more amazing to consider from the perspective of motherhood — to think what our children might someday remember and cherish about home and daily life... Wow!

Oh, this white kitchen found over on Design Is Mine is thrilling me to bits!

Not only a lovely wedding but what inspiring nature-inspired decorating ideas for fall!

Eight may be enough for this mama, but her beautiful home wears it so well.

This week's Show & Tell Home Tour is inside the Tarrytown, NY home of Tara Thayer, co-owner of the Eyebuzz Fine Art gallery and stay-at-home mom to a blended family with six girls.

There's something so stress-free about staying in a hotel, especially a super nice one. The luxurious sheets, serene colors, the fluffy towels. Sigh.

Fortunately, you don't have to drop $500 a night to get those same luxuries.
