One Year Anniversary, Plus A Giveaway

There are moments that can instantly change you life.  Then there are decisions that seem small but over time transform your life.  A year ago today I took a small step and wrote the inaugural Covet du Jour post.  To my amazement that step led me to the beautiful door of the interior design world.  I find myself at the threshold being greeted by endless possibilities.  Countless posts, pictures, and quotes later I am certain this is my place in the world. Wow, what tremendous satisfaction and joy that brings! 


Along this journey family, friends, fellow bloggers, designers, and readers have encouraged and inspired me. To show my gratitude and to welcome new CDJ members, every Wednesday in February will feature a design book giveaway!   There is no gift I  love to give (or receive) more than a book.  

This week's Covet du Jour Design Book Giveaway is...

Domino: The Book of Decoration; 

A Room-by-Room Guide to Creating a Home That Makes You Happy

Whether you are a design pro or moving into your first apartment, this is a must have 

for any design library.

1.) You must register or be registered follower of Covet du Jour.

MMC Giveaway!!

My best friend and fellow redhead, Megan Meade Clifford, is a talented artist and graphic designer who's been drawing on everything, including her bedroom walls, since she was a child.  She has an amazing ability to draw people, which in my opinion, are the most difficult subjects to capture.  Her work, much like her, is colorful, witty and unique. 

Pencil sketch of my son 

"Holding Hands"

  This would be so cute for a "Save the Date".  (Custom colors available)

"Mother and Child"

I have this in the nursery.  So sweet! (custom color available)

"Lions in Love"

(custom colors available)

Logo designed by Megan Clifford

Megan has graciously offered her services to one lucky CDJ reader.  The winner can work with her to create a custom silhouette image.  You can select a traditional silhouette or design one with a personalized pattern.  All you have to do is e-mail her a profile photograph of the person.  Once you decide on a color, pattern, etc. and the work is complete, she will email you the image.  

Enter for a chance to win before her Etsy shop opens and there's a wait list!
