If You Are Stumped On What To Get Me For Christmas, Here Is My List...

Love these pretty necklaces. So original and beautiful!



I'm getting a huge kick (hahaha!) from this butter dish

Any of these keys would do....


But the turquoise one is especially beautiful and so my style.


This is just about the sweetest cupcake plate ever! My cupcakes would look even yummier.


This seriously cracks me up! I love a good, crazy piece of jewelry. And it's on a Scrabble tile, genius.


Beautiful!!! And Pendelton wool. Could it get better? Maybe if it were bigger and I could put a coordinating wallet inside, then it's better.

Something For My Kitchen

I've been looking for a print to put in my kitchen above my kitchen sink. It is a very important place because we do not have a dish washer so we spend a lot of time at our sink, staring at the blank wall. I would like something bright and fun. I went to etsy to see what I could find...

This one is nice and simple. I like the retro feel.

The next two are from the same artist. I really like all her work.



I love this print! I think because it's unexpected for a kitchen. I want to be unexpected.


This print is for my children. Maybe it will sink in while they are laboring away. I'm not past using mind-games on my kids.

Wicked Halloween Party

Now that's how you do a Halloween party! So much fun!! I love the personal touch the printed tags and wrappers bring to the tablescape. Check out all the party decorations here. So many ideas I want to try!

Could You Live Here?

Oprah toured this Danish home on her show. I am loving the clean lines and simple decorating. And the kids' bedroom is great. But I dont' know if I could have such a tiny fridge.

Project Time

I'm on the lookout for a cool project for my daughter and I. She has some canvases and we are trying to find something to do with them besides just paint. I like this idea...
Here is the tutorial.

I think some sort of mixed media would be fun for her. Maybe this...
Here is the tutorial.

Or we'll just skip the canvas and do this to my chair...
Here is the tutorial.

When the weather cools my creative juices start flowing. I need projects to keep me busy indoors. And I think this may be a long winter so send me your ideas.

So Sweet!

I'm so in love with this wedding. Everything about it is just beautiful. So much detail and thought put into every part of the day. And isn't this such a cute wedding program?

The quote at the end is so romantic. I'm swooning!

Brass Razoo

This weekend I checked out the Brass Razoo in Nampa. It was so lovely. And the owner, Elise Vaughn, was so friendly and helpful. It was one of those shops that you just can't wait to go back to. There were so many amazing pieces of clothing and jewelry and I really wish I had some major money to throw down. I heard about the shop here. You never know what amazing places are hiding right in your own back yard!

Fall Has Fallen

It is cold and foggy here today. Perfect hot cocoa weather. Do you need some good fall decorating inspiration as much as I do? I've been surrounded with bright, happy colors all spring and summer and now I'm starting to feel the need for muted, warm tones. I've been thinking of slip-covering my pillows with sweaters and felt and plaid. Here are some looks I'm loving right now...
