Splendorful & Wonderous

"Occasionally in life, there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be completely explained by those symbols called words.

Their meanings can only be articulated

by the inaudible language of the heart"

Martin Luther King Jr

A lovely girlfriend shared this quote and

it made me think about times when the world seems to stop in silent splendor

and suddenly everything is perfect


Wishing you a season full of warmth & magic that is beyond words

Extreme Home Makeover

Photobucket
Two months ago, I had the thrill of learning that many goodies from The Paris Apartment, including my "CINEMA" sign were chosen for a future Extreme Home Makeover. Back then, everything was shrouded in secrecy and all I was told was the sign needed to be sent to Tennessee.

I have always loved this show and watch it occasionally when I have time. The stories behind the families chosen are always gripping, but as a single mother of 3, I was moved more profoundly than I ever expected. This was for a single mom as well.

Meet Trina Scott and her 3 gorgeous daughters Alethea, Deidre and Leyla (right)...

Their husband and father, a police officer, was killed in the line of duty. Their home was literally crumbling right before their eyes due to severe termite damage.

Needless to say the home was torn down and rebuilt in grand EHM style.
The Hollywood bedroom we were a part of was for sweet Leyla ( an aspiring actress ).

Isn't this dreamy ? I hope she feels as glamorous as she deserves to feel in her new room !

Photobucket
Lovely little details only The Paris Apartment can provide ...

Thank you EHM and TPA

Forever Touched,

Christmas has arrived a little early for me this year ...
Just found out here that the
CINEMA sign along with other
Paris Apartment Boutique goodies
will be appearing on primetime television
this Sunday night

So thrilled to be a part of Claudia's boutique.
As she would say, " I'm over the moon !" ;)
