Rainy days used to be good for only one thing (sleeping), but now another thing is on my personal list: vegetation! Our vegetable garden is loving the weather. Fresh organic produce is on the way!

A house with plants is a wonderful thing. They breathe life into a home, much like children, except they are quiet and complacent. You know how some people are dog people or cat people? I think I'm a plant person.
I read somewhere that when styling, start with the fabric. The moment I saw this fabric (at Fabric Warehouse) with the birds and the flowers, it just called to me. I've always liked birds, how colorful and graceful they are. They're one of my favorite styling elements.
So I used this fabric to anchor my lanai style. Our daybed used to be all white, clean and easy. But I eventually grew tired of it.

Here's a tip: if you grow tired of your space and you want to refresh it, the first thing you should do is look at the layout of your furniture. If that doesn't scratch the itch,
change your fabric! Sometimes that is all you need to fill the house with excitement.

Also, I highly recommend daybeds. It's a couch and a bed. It's relaxing in two different ways.
