Cheers!

If you are not a huge fan of downing a green beer in honor of St. Patrick's Day, no worries! Here is a little green concoction for your St. Paddy's Day celebration: 



 Honeydew, Cucumber and Mint Mojito
                                    


**To make the garnish, cut a shamrock from a slice of cucumber skin using a shamrock cookie cutter.


Serves 1 (just double or triple, etc. for more servings)


Ingredients


1/4  lime wedge
2 sprigs fresh mint
cucumber slices
2 teaspoons superfine sugar
1 cup crushed ice
3/4 cup fresh honeydew melon juice (from half of a melon)
Club soda (I used ginger ale), fresca, or Sprite
1 Tbsp rum (optional)
Cucumber skin "shamrock," for garnish


Directions:
Place lime, mint, cucumber slices, and sugar in a tumbler or highball glass and muddle. Add ice to glass; pour honeydew melon juice over ice. Top with club soda or flavored carbonated drink. Stir and serve immediately garnished with cucumber  "shamrock."


Now all you need is a little decoration:




Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

Out with the odd and in with the even!

Happy 2012!!

We are welcoming 2012 with open arms! Marjorie is a sucker for even numbers and believes strongly that 2012 is going to be another great year for Marjorie Johnston and Co. and jojo Home. We all sat down today and decided on some fun things we will introduce this new year. We hope you will tag along with us as we introduce these exciting ideas!

In the meantime, here are some fun living spaces compliments of pinterest to help inspire you for 2012!

Simple and Festive Tablescapes

The table is one of the most important parts of the holiday season. It is where we gather, where stories are shared, and memories are made. Here are some great ideas to make your table the perfect setting for your Thanksgiving meal!
Keep it natural and use earthy/neutral colors, and if you can, use elements from outside.

New Year, New Floor!

With the start of the New Year, many of our big items sold and we were left with a big blank slate! We definitely filled the empty spaces with some wonderful items! Marjorie and Wendy have really found some great one-of-a-kind pieces. Whether you need a new seating group, lighting, or just a decorative accent to complete a space- we are your one stop shop!

With the new year, we are going to try some new things with the shop. We have exciting events planned and some great incentives to shop, so stay tuned!

New Store. New Location. New BLOG!

Once we moved spaces and began our new journey with jojo Home, we decided it would be a great idea to blog about our new endeavors!
Keeping up with this blog will allow you to be the first to see new arrivals, get up close and personal with the designers, and even see our fun side!  We hope that you will take the time to read our blog and visit often.
Since we are still fairly new to our location, we wanted to show you a little sneak peak of what jojo home has to offer.


Lovely side tables and pillows

Isn't this velvet divine!

We all could use an extra hand around the holidays!
Wendy has the perfect touch
