See Jane Work!

Hi Friends,

Happy Friday! This is Crystal again. Okay show of hands please! How many of you have wondered what the Designer Diva's office looks like? Well sit tight because I have a treat for you today. I sweet-talked Jane into letting me take and post some images from her office. I thought some of you might like a little peeksie too. But before I get on with the tour, I just want to remind everyone that the deadline for the Summer Giveaway is today at noon sharp. If you haven't commented yet, click on this link to get your name in for a fabulous pillow sham and her book, Cottages.

Most of Jane's work is done at a client's home. And for those times that she has to come into the office and do boring things like paperwork here is where she goes.

Her office is very unassuming, and is located in the breath taking district of Isle of Hope.

No matter what angle you stand at it's simple gorgeous. I love all the Spanish moss dripping from the oak trees. It speaks to my heart and I feel very at home when I'm surrounded by it.

This is the house next door to her office. 

Won't you a seat!

Meet Lance. Or, as I lovingly nicked named, Lancy Pants. I wanted to bring him back home with me. 

Jane pays attention to even the smallest details. Look at this color paired with black and white zebra rug. LOVE IT!

Be still my heart. This is the view from Jane's desk. Seriously, who could get any work done looking out of a beautiful window like this. Reminds me of a Thomas Kincade calendar.

I think she must own every book on decorating known to man. 

I fell in love with this little chandy. It's so petite and darling. 

Love the owl lamp from West Elm. 

A New Slipcover & The Pillow Giveaway

I'm a happy lady today. I have a  new slipcover for my loveseat. I took a few pictures of the pillow that will be given away this Friday. If you haven't already commented scroll down to the next post. You have four chances to win this time. The deadline is Friday, June 1st at 12:00 PM. So make sure all your comments are in by then.

This is a pillow that can be used indoors or out. It could be on the bed, sofa, chair or the chaise.
I think the slipcover looks great. And here it is  "in the raw." These photos were taken before my very talented slipcover artist, Jennifer Hale made it. She had just loaded the fabric into her basket and was getting ready to pedal back home. She loves her bike as much as I do. That's how we roll down here.

And off she goes to make my new slipcover!

DON'T YOU JUST LOVE IT!!!!

Beach Front Jewel

Hi friends. It's Crystal here. You know that crazy chick that always starts a blog, grows tired of it and  poof it's gone. Yep! That's me, and you have my permission to refer to me as crazy Crystal from this point on. It has been a while since I guest blogged on here and I've got some vintage beach goodness for you today. My hubby and I recently celebrated our anniversary on the GA coast. We started out at St. Simons Island and wrapped things up over at Jekyll Island. While my hubby has visited both Islands, I had never had the pleasure. And now after visiting them both I can honestly say my heart is with Tybee Island 100%!

While we were visiting St. Simons Lighthouse we found a diamond in the rough. It's located directly across from the lighthouse office. Does this have JANE COSLICK written all over it or what? To see the entire image on the ones that are cut off, just click on the image to enlarge. 

Beach front Property. You can see it needs lots of work. It's in pretty sad shape. But nothing Miss Jane couldn't conquer. I have no idea if it's for sale or not. It was empty and the door was cracked open a bit just inviting me in for a spell. My husband on the other hand was against it and kept reminding me that I would be trespassing. TRESPASSING??? I didn't see any "No Trespassing" signs. If I had been alone I would gone in. Men! Pfftt!!

Shooting through the screen. I always love using this method. I think it gives such a dreamy effect.

 Love the french doors

The side

I was able to peek through some of the windows and see into the kitchen. It was very outdated, but it did have a cool farmhouse sink.

I love how the sun is peeking through the trees in this one. I can't believe I was up that early. 

Well that's it for my guest post. I hope you enjoyed seeing this delightful little cottage. I sure hope someone can save it. It would be such a shame to see it go to waste. Thank you, Jane for having me.
