I hope you have been watching Million Dollar Decorators because its fantastic. Endlessly entertaining with some occasional beautiful interiors. What more could you ask for?

This week was the season finale and we got to follow along while Mary redid her own home (those are always my favorite projects to see).

I googled to no end to try and find pictures of this redo but found nothing, until… I found Cioa Newport Beach, a blog that a did post very similar to the one I had in mine! Success!

Here are a few favorites:

The eat-in kitchen in gorgeous Quadrille green ikat and green velvet

The “grown up” living room. Its pretty a little blah to me.

The master bedroom was the true highlight. It was absolute perfection as far as I’m concerned. Whimsical, feminine, timeless.

and yes I know the picture quality leaves a lot to be desired. But its better than nothing right?

Here’s the deal. I’m not much of a “resolution” person. It feels like you are setting yourself up for failure, not to mention puts a negative spin on your previous year. I like to set goals. There’s nothing like a goal to motivate you. And because I’m a firm believer that if you put it out there in the universe, you’re more likely to hold yourself accountable, I’m going to share my business 2013 goals.

 via

1. Get organized. Being a one (wo)man show, I often say that all of the information is in my head, it doesn’t need to be on paper too. Not anymore. Binders, files, boxes. I need it all.

2. Grow my business. Take on projects that will teach me something, challenge me and help me get stronger as a business person. Skips the ones that eat up hours and don’t get me too far.

3. Post original content multiple times a week. If there’s anything I’ve learned from blogging its not that no one (including me) wants to see regurgitated pinterest pictures.

4. Get published. This one is big for me. It is a tangible success and I like that.

5. Finish up my office. Its easy for the design of my office to fall to the bottom of my list each week, but I want to get it done asap. Its much more inspiring to work in a pretty space.

What do you think of goals vs resolutions? Do you have any for 2013?
