Vacation is Over, Back to Reality!

September 5, 2013 by Amber Filed Under: art, beach, personal, vacation Leave a Comment

With this crazy in between time of summer and fall, it is growing more apparent that fall is definitely here. With the kids back in school and our vacation over, it is back to reality time and the beginning of the fall routines. For our summer vacation this year, we went to the beaches in South Carolina. I love the south! I have some family there, everyone’s so polite and I love the food! Staying by the beach, I couldn’t get enough of the seafood and buffets! Eating until you’re stuffed is my idea of a great vacation!  🙂 So since summer has come to a close around here, I wanted to remind myself of the beach and take a moment to see the gorgeous view…

I would love to take one of these pictures and blow it up to a large canvas art piece. I have this as my inspiration…

We also had time to stop in and see a local interior designer’s shop. Knotting Hill Interiors is owned by Principal Designer Kimberly Grigg. The amount of fabrics and accessories to browse through was incredible. Needless to say, I loved every minute of it!

So even though summer is officially here until the end of September, it feels like fall in these parts! Fall happens to be my favorite season, too. Until next time, beach…

    So glad you had a great end to summer. Love the photo from the shop. Gives me great inspiration as the chair in my office is covered in one of the pillow fabrics. Been looking for others to add to the room!!

    Returning from vacation is always so, so, hard! I totally think you should blow up one of your beach photos. That way you have a bit of the beach around you all the time.

    Your beach photos look great. You should definitely blow them up! By the way, love that beautiful rug from the store!

I kept putting off getting our chair slip cover dr I kept putting off getting our chair slip cover dry cleaned. A white slip cover shows everything and from daily use, it needed a refresh. I am so glad I finally did… it looks brand new. 😍 #amberbdesignathome #coastalliving #loveyourhabitat #SMmakelifebeautiful #bhghome #hgtv #howyouhome
I need your vote! This beautiful bench recently ar I need your vote! This beautiful bench recently arrived. And while it was worth the wait, I’m wondering if this natural rattan colorway is right for the space. It might compete with the table top stain a bit too much. I am waiting on a different rattan swatch that has more of a driftwood gray color to it. We’ll see if that is a better match. What do you think of this one so far?! #amberbdesignathome #coastalliving #loveyourhabitat #SMmakelifebeautiful

We’re waiting on a bench to go on the other side of the ottoman. Almost at one year, but it will arrive eventually!
