The frame of the day is a sweet little pink frame that has been made from old barn wood which will go right with the foto of the day! This is one of my dear family friends Colleen and her husband Nick. We were all at a wedding celebrating not only the marriage of Col's cousin but of Nick and Colleen's big news that they were expecting! Congrats guys!!!!

As Halloween is fast approaching I have realized it all doesn't need to be tacky and hallmarky...check out some finds I found from DIY ideas to simple touches for your home!
Now I am no candy maker but I think a couple of these ideas are great DIYs for the upcoming days. I love the painted pumpkins and the mouse cut outs as decorations! Simple ideas to add that extra touch to your home over this holiday!

love this geometric back to the chair...I am thinking painting the chair white and the detail in a pink/orange
old birdcage...I'm thinking light fixture
great sets of books
love this piece..new pulls and a coat of paint will give this new life
right on the money this furniture thrift store was down on spruce and 12th...its a MUST visit and all proceeds go to African education

Frame + Foto of the Day
Today's frame of the day would be such an easy DIY project! All you would need is to take a white frame and paint navy stripes down! The foto of the day is from our Christ Child Posey Guild fundaiser over the weekend. We are a young group of women who raise money for children in need. This foto is of good friends Christina, Austin, and Erin!
We had great success with the auction too! Here is a pic from the auction table I put together.
Stripes!
The dresser for the nursery I'm decorating is almost complete after getting some stripes over the weekend!
A quick coat of spray paint
final pics to come...I am painting the knobs tonight navy and white pinstripe

Frame + Foto of the Day!
Today's frame of the day is a classic vintage looking frame in black with gold trim. To go with it is my best friend Claire and her husband Dan. Boy and I are heading up to visit them outside of Phillie for the weekend! This foto was taken at their 30th Birthday party. I got them these cake's and as you can see they have 1 difference in life and thank god that only occurs on Sundays!
McNamara Design Pillows
I am getting ready to do an upcoming Holiday show at my high school Georgetown Visitation. I will have a bunch of my rehabbed furniture from chairs to dressers but I want to add another item for your home. So what better then throw pillows. I'm obsessed and could change mine out all the time! Here are some of the pillows I've made for the upcoming show!
If anyone is interested in purchasing please email!
