Pretty on Paper: Stationary Goodies

Stationary

I love paper… I always have. I love writing, sketching, making lists & scheduling events. At the beginning of each new year I try to start fresh with new journals/sketchbooks, stationary, notepads & calendars (for obvious reasons). There’s something about jotting down a quick note to Kevin (or a family member, friend or client) on cute stationary or brainstorming new ideas in my journal that make my heart so happy!

Trend Watch: Ikat

Ikat Pillows

Hi! It’s Wednesday… already, can you believe it? Happy Leap Year (day)!!! It’s been a pretty busy week over here! We are preparing to finally open up our e-shop, doing a few lil diy projects and picking out new paint colors for our bedroom. (What can I say, I love to change things). I’ve got TONS in the works that I just can’t wait to tell you about! In the meantime… It’s all about Ikat today!

Painting

When I was a child, I was really into art. That never really changed. I always had glue, scissors, tape, makers, a ruler and paints around. I loved letting my creativity shine.

Pining for Pinterest

Pinterest= The New Inspiration File Remember one of my first blogs on inspiration and how to keep it? I joined this little site called Pinterest before it became big. The problem= I never did anything with it and I forgot I joined it until it became “the thing”.

Lately we have been lavished with summer weather here in Sarasota… it has been in the upper 80’s for about 2 weeks now. All we can think about is cooling down and planning light summer meals & snacks…

Obsessing Over Chevron

I love pattern… mod, traditional & eclectic. I love styling a space with great pattern, but my latest love is the chevron pattern.

If you follow me on twitter, Tuesday night I mentioned that I started a new book that evening and I couldn’t put it down {which happens to be what occurs anytime I pick up a book}.

Last Friday, I wrote about my obsession with colorfully painted interior doors… what I didn’t mention was that I am also really into painted dressers too!
