    Slowly Decorating

    ByMary Crozier December 4, 2018

    I have been MIA for the last week.  It all started Thanksgiving morning.  I woke up full of energy and excitement for the holiday.  Mid-morning I suddenly had the worst abdominal pains, which was the beginning of a wave of vomiting and the “other”.  The good Lord gave me a break long enough to get…

    Fall Decor Touches in the Living Room

    ByMary Crozier September 21, 2018September 18, 2023

    It is that time of year when the temperatures are shifting ever so slightly lower, that I am inspired to add a few fall decor touches to the living room. I recently went to Trader Joe’s to buy pumpkins for my living room mantle and they had NONE. They had not shipped yet from the…

    E-commerce subscriptions and Gift ideas

    ByMary Crozier September 5, 2018January 15, 2021

    I am not the most current on trends, but I find the concept of e-commerce subscriptions fascinating. My first encounter was Stitch Fix, nearly five years ago.  Stitch Fix, is a company that mails you a monthly box of clothing and accessories. The items are hand-picked by Stitch Fix’s 3,500 full- and part-time stylists, who…

    My Daughter’s Bedroom

    ByMary Crozier August 16, 2018August 16, 2018

    When we first remodeled Bella Terra, the original intention of this room was to be a computer/TV/hang out room for our then 2 children.  But God works in strange ways and I became pregnant with our 3rd child in the middle of our 3 year renovation.  Of course the doctor had told me that it…
