friends forever

This is an awesome grown-up version of the friendship bracelet.

the big idea

I'm making some progress getting the essentials of the house together.  Now I need a wow factor.  This screen would do.

farewell for now

I'm officially on maternity leave!  The office is on hold for now.  It's a strange feeling, but I'm happy to have time to get things in order and nest.

design beyond reach

Damn, how hard is it for a girl to find an affordable sconce around here?!

Harlequin Multi

A little Jonathan Adler to brighten up this gloomy Monday.

plus

I've really been feeling plus patterns lately.  Maybe this should rock my wall.

cheeburger, cheeburger

Any gift would be more delicious if presented this way.  Related side note- I just had 4 sliders for lunch and I think my belly button might pop out.  Yum.

Finally!

Park Avenue perks up after a loooooong winter.

toes!

Now that it's finally getting warmer, it's time to show some toe!  I'm going for my first mani pedi of the season tomorrow.  It will be especially nice since I can't reach my toes these days.

Pitcher Perfect

How cute is this?!

one thing is another

Giant pinecones made from shovels.

In the mood for superfood

I think I'll go have myself an avocado.

She's got a ticket to ride

A chic rattle for the urban baby.

cheating

This cheat sheet apron might help me feel more comfortable cooking.  It's more likely to just make me feel overwhelmed to put on an apron.

Shades of Easter

Happy Easter!  No eggs were decorated in this construction zone of a house this year, but I'll file this idea away for the future.  I'm looking forward to decorating for holidays with kids.  It will help me justify my own level of child like excitement for all things holiday!

awesomeness

Perusing for art.  Found it.

kilim lust

I've been on the hunt for rugs lately (and sofas, and credenzas, and rocking chairs...) and just came across this glorious etsy shop.

natural selection

These gem prints are stunning.  They also come as scarves.  Hard to choose!

MCM Perfection

No amount of home renovating will get me here, but I'm giving it my best shot.

rise and shine!

I am definitely not a morning person, but these rainbow pancakes would be hard not to perk up for.
