I started a new blog

2016-07-11T19:02:00.000-04:00

I have been in a blogging rut for a while now and need some motivation. Derrick and I bought a house and I am documenting the DIY of it all. Join me as we go room by room at a boy, a girl, and a house!

Im loving the look at Restoration Hardware right now. I tore through all of the 2015 catalogs now on their app. The light almost coastal vibe of some of their collections is really appealing right now [need a vacation much]. I always love the store so any new lines are good with me!

A Homopolar Motor:

Happy Friday everyone. I found this post on pinterest and thought it was such a cute way to work a little science onto the agenda. For the full project details check here.

Spring Printable

2015-03-10T20:52:00.001-04:00

I found these super cute spring printables that I wanted to share with everyone. I was looking for something to spring up my kitchen and entryway with and these will do the trick perfectly. Question is, which one do I want to use they are all so cute.

Ready for an Outdoor Adventure

Now that the snow is melting I could not be more ready for things to turn green again. Come on spring!

WEDDING DIY

2015-03-06T21:33:00.001-05:00

I discovered Gartner Studios this week and I feel like I hit the jackpot. The wedding invitations are so cute and there are a bunch of options. The invitations I chose to go with for my wedding were found at Michaels as part of the Brides collection. The website is user friendly with instructions on the box for customizing their templets for printing at home. So far I have been super happy with them.

Bragging

2015-03-01T22:19:00.003-05:00

I hate to do this, but I think its time to do a little cat bragging. Derrick and I have two VERY cute and cuddly cats that I like to think are the only cats on the planet that like as much attention as they do [I'm sure every one thinks their pets are the best ever]. They keep us on our toes and entertained for hours.

A Little Wedding Inspiration

2015-03-01T21:46:00.000-05:00

With six months to go before the big day, I thought I would put together a little collage of inspiration. My colors of choice for my wedding were black and white with accents of navy blue and green. It is an outside reception with twinkly lights and I am going for understated elegance. It is nothing too fancy because I want every one to just have fun. We are building a big paper moon photo booth that I am so excited about. The wedding is taking place at an old victorian home now used as event space. I have always loved the idea of a swanky back yard wedding and now I get one!

Spring

2015-03-01T09:06:00.001-05:00

I don't know about you but I'm ready for spring. 20 more days and it's officially no longer winter. Now, if Mother Nature only listens we will be done with snow. Free spring printable found here.

Architectural Digest: Patrick Dempsey

2014-08-29T14:20:00.000-04:00

I am loving the casual lived in styling of Patrick Dempsey's family home in Malibu, complete with recycled wood chicken coup. The home is a Frank Gehry architectural gem from the late 1960's. Hidden behind olive trees the unassuming exterior hides a treasure trove.

When the weather is gross do you ever just feel like staying in with a cup of tea and a book (Netflix)? My weekends are never on the same days so when I get time off I try to do as little as humanly possible.

Getaway : Lake Front

2014-08-25T15:35:00.000-04:00

Derrick and I went to on a weekend getaway to lake Michigan a few weeks ago. The scenery was just beautiful and we had a fantastic time relaxing and wandering around the little towns and visiting several of the lighthouses. I thought I would share some of the photos.

Happy Monday all!

Elements of Style

2014-08-25T14:46:00.000-04:00

My inspiration can come from anywhere however now-a-days Pinterest gets a lot of my attention (guilty pleasure). I love the idea of a neutral color pallet with a lot of texture. Fresh flowers never hurt either.

A Little DIY

2014-08-05T11:41:00.002-04:00

We have been wanting a new dining table for quite some time and I am considering this little project. I found it on this fantastic website full of diy's. I think it looks great with the look I have been obsessed with the last few weeks.

Dreamy Neutrals

2014-07-07T00:18:00.000-04:00

A little Pinterest inspiration:

There is something so good about a little tone on tone neutral with texture. It will never be wrong. It makes for the perfect seasonal backdrop if you like to change things up like I do.

My Current Obsession:

2014-07-06T23:32:00.001-04:00

Restoration Hardware relatively recently updated their location by us here in Indianapolis and ever sense I just can't seem to get enough of the look. I am loving the layers of bedding and cozy calming colors of the store. I have copies of their catalogs everywhere. As I have been going through and updating our look here I find that I enjoy that concept more and more.

update on my life

2014-07-06T23:15:00.001-04:00

I am so thankful to all the readers who have supported me during my blogging absence. Things around here have been hectic and crazy. Many things have happened sense my last posting like two new additions to our house hold, a crazy work schedule, and that I am getting married! I am excited to be back and I will try my best not to make this a wedding blog.

A Change in the Season

Fall is my favorite season.

The air is crisp, the sweaters are cozy, and I cant wait for the leaves to turn.
