Better Homes & Gardens Halloween 2013 Issue & more...





 I was so honored when Better Homes & Gardens 
came out last year to shoot our home for their 
special interest Halloween 2013 Issue, out on newsstands today.
Halloween is my favorite time of year, and for me marks the 
beginning of the holiday season!
This issue is full of lovely inspiration and ideas.
The editor let me style the way I wanted to and 
it was photographed by the talented Edmond Bar.
I can't wait to share what I will be doing this year.
Kitchen remodel by my darling husband Geminii Services, Inc.
Sweet Sweater Pumpkins and botanicals available 
at A Beautiful Mess Home.

Update on the spa we went to. My husband and I had a wonderful time and yes it was 
life changing. We each lost close to 40 pounds over the past few months and changed 
our diet and lifestyle completely. I want to some how incorporate what I was taught 
about living a fit lifestyle on my blog, 
 and I am trying figure out how it will all work.  I need more time in the day and some help!!!
 I am working on several different
projects and will update the fun on my blog but, in the meantime you can follow me
on Instagram daily and Facebook if you like.

Lastly, count down T-MINUS one month until we start a complete
makeover on several rooms in our home! YES,
once again Dustylu is changing the formal living room, dinning room,
and master bedroom.  HUGE changes including furniture, walls, and flooring.
I have been waiting patiently to do this, researching what I really want and saving my pennies!
I am over the moon and so excited and will share the new look on my blog.

BUSY, BUSY, BUSY and loving every minute of it
I am truly blessed and a very grateful for my life and opportunties.
Thank you to all my old and new readers for sticking with me!


Ciao,
Dustylu
