Images Of bed duos

{“Images Of” is the new name of my post series, formerly known as Pin-spiration}

I think its funny that this comes on the heels of my “no matchy-matchy” post.  Just goes to show you that rules-are-meant-to-be-broken …

Below are images of bed duos, taken from a variety of gorgeous bedrooms. I love this look for a bedroom, especially guest bedrooms or children’s bedrooms. {This reminds me that I need to get my act in gear and get you all some pics of our nearly finished boys’ room – featuring matching beds, of course!}

Do you have any rooms that have matching beds? Considering adding a gorgeous space like this to your home??

When I was 14, the stage bug bit me. Well, actually, it bit me when I was 4, but it was a full blown infection by 14.

By 16, I was in voice lessons, ballet lessons, tap lessons, drama coaching, and did show, after show, after show.

At 18, with great encouragement from my voice teacher and my parents, I decided to go full-steam-ahead toward a career in Opera performance.

I majored in Vocal Performance at Indiana University, which  – you may already know if you are a music junkie – is an awesome music school. I got to be in Full-scale operas and performances there that I will NEVER forget. One of my faves: a 600 person choir with a full orchestra performing Beethoven’s Ninth.

I got my Masters in Opera Theatre Performance.

After graduating, I continued performing, got hitched to a fantastic man {hi honey!}, and began a voice studio filled with fantastic voice students. I started making a CD. And hubs and I were chatting about moving to NY, NY so I could give my theatre dream a try – no regrets.

Then, 4 weeks before opening night {I was singing the lead of Sarah Brown in Guys and Dolls}, I got sick.

2 weeks later, I sat in the office of a world-famous voice doctor – with no beside manner, who simply stated: “Your vocal cords are partially paralyzed. You will never sing the same again.” And he left the room.

…

He was right.

…

I have seen big ups and downs in my life. And this particular pain – the pain of losing my actual identity – was deep, and cutting, and lasting. I was completely lost. I was also in physical pain from what was going on in my vocal cords, and I would also have dreams at night…. where I could sing again.

That day, my life changed. The plans that I had for my life were stripped away.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. – Jeremiah 29:11

…

Friends. This week, something I never even dreamed of for my life is happening.

 

My interior designs are being featured in Better Homes and Gardens.

Featured.

Pinch me.

In fact, I also posted on the BHG blog on Saturday! I REALLY HOPE you will come visit me there {and maybe just give me some Pinterest, FB, twitter, and comment love???? I am SO hoping it goes over well!!! You are the best. truly.}.

This week, the January issue of BHG is hitting news stands. And I hope you will get a copy, because Edie’s home makes the heart go pitter-patter. And I hope you get a copy because – HOLY COW! – my designs are being featured in Better Homes and Gardens!!

…

Without my voice, I returned to a first love: The same love and passion for decorating that caused me to make clocks out of jewelry boxes for my barbies…

{actual clock that I made for my childhood Barbies… my mom just gave it to me last week. Check out Barbie’s chic gold vintage accessory – she is such a stylin’ lady.}

My passion for interiors was always there. And my eye for design has been chilling out in dollhouses and Barbie Dream House and my own house…. just waiting to bust out.

But most Opera Singers are not Interior Designers on the side. So, without my voice, I found my old love.

…

And without my voice I grew to know the goodness of my True Love. Even though I spent many nights, curled up in a ball and weeping, “Why??”

I am convinced that, here on earth, we never get to know the whole answer to “Why?”

But I do know some of the answers to my whys:

Better Homes and Gardens, and this blog, and living my new dream, and my amazing clients, and knowing all of you….

It is all SO MUCH MORE than I could have dreamed. And, it is only a tiny part of the blessings that God has brought out of my vocal cord paralysis.

In fact, I have a list of blessings so long, I cannot fit them in this post. But topping this list?: My identity does not come from being Darlene the Singer. No. My identity is Darlene, the daughter of God. I am loved beyond measure. My worth DOES NOT REST in my own accomplishments, but in the blood of the GREATEST One, who ever walked the earth.

He is mine. and I am His.

And I hope you get to hear me sing in Glory. Cause it’s gonna be good.

Orange, My other favorite color. Take two.

Thanks for all of your sweet comments on my boys’ school pics yesterday. Aren’t they adorable-ness a l’orange?

Now. Back to our regularly scheduled program:
