I have so much to be thankful for this year (and every year)! For starters I am off for a much needed break with family where my computer will not be attached to my hip. What will be attaching to my hips is lots of turkey, dressing (stuffing), mashed potatoes, my mother-in-law’s homemade chicken nuggets, wine, desserts, and all that good stuff. I will be making my fool-proof chocolate chip pumpkin muffins to add to the mix as well (thank your Ryan for the recipe, I will forever be grateful!!). If you are in a pinch….like only have a few bucks and an hour these muffins need to be your go-to as well! Here is the recipe and Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

So today I am going to show you a design board that was created around one of those rugs. I think it is gorgeous and I hope it restores your faith in me:) Just the other day I read an excerpt from an interview with Amber Lewis of Amber Interiors and she said something that really resonated with me:
