My Shabby Chateau: Mele Kalikimaka! (or, "Merry Christmas!")

Welcome to my blog!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I believe that everyone can have a beautiful home without spending a fortune! One of my favorite things to do is find creative ways to re-purpose things I already have on hand, or have picked up at yard sales and thrift stores. Join me as I share with you some of my favorite ideas for crafting and decorating, as well as travel adventures, and fun things that I pick up on my treasure hunts! Much of my work is influenced by my love all things French, nature, and of course shabby chic! I have gotten so many creative ideas from you very talented bloggers out there, and I hope that I can be an inspiration to you as well!

Mele Kalikimaka! (or, "Merry Christmas!")

Aloha! Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas, and a very Happy New Year! Hubby and

I have been sitting on our lanai this morning, watching the surfers and rainbows, too! A bit surreal for my first Hawaiian Christmas! Thought you might want to see a few of the beautiful tropical flowers here! Hope you all have a great day spending time with those you love!
