Craze

One of my sisters and I have been a bit trunk crazy lately. It all started with a beautiful, beat up, brown one we found for $10 when she moved back to California in August. Then I found a blue one for myself for the same great price but I was so excited about how pretty it was that I forgot to open it up and look inside so I found when I got home that it has an oil stain and scent. No matter though, as my sister found two more last weekend and so it's been replaced. Between the two of us, we have quite a collection!

Replicate

I've been patiently waiting for an adorable little shack to magically appear in my backyard for a couple of years now but nothing has happened. Last night I sent an email to my husband demanding that he build me an exact replica of this one, this summer, or else I'll do it myself. That just might work...

Spring

Spring has sprung and while we don't have blooms in our yard yet, we do have the promise of beautiful things to come as all the bare branches are beginning to burst with new leaves...I know that blooms will be soon to follow!

Sunday

One of my sisters has been here for the weekend. We've been making the most of the time we have together by eating good food. Today that included one of my favorite pick me ups, brownies, from a box with 1 cup of chocolate chips added to the mix. Yum.

Layers

I'm ready to get back into the swing of things. Let's start with this old Domino favorite...

I was, like so many women, a Domino magazine junkie. I have every issue. I loved the positive energy in every issue and their spin on traditional decor which I think went just far enough without being too far over the top. Every month, while flipping through the pages, I felt inspired to get up and do something to improve and enliven our living space!

Life

Things are a little rocky in my world these last few weeks. Please bear with me, I'll be posting regularly again soon. On a lighter note, isn't this poster just lovely?! Find it here.

Space Solution

Sometimes having enough room for our hobbies is about perspective. Sure there might not be an entire extra room available but a little space tucked away in an underused closet can be just the right amount of space to start.

Reminder

Isn't this an adorable reminder of what we already know to do but often forget to put into action?! I love it and every piece from Alli Coate's studio.

Look

This look is perfect for a day like today as I head over to SF; not too dressed up or down, it would work for just about anything I might decide to do.

Still

I love the stillness of this photo. I used to think a yard had to be continuously in bloom to be beautiful, now I can see beauty in the dormant period as well.

Shared Interest

When I see a room like this, entirely dedicated to the beauty of flowers and gardening, I think of the person who must live there, and it's easy  to imagine that we could be friends. Without even knowing another thing about them...

Defined

vernacular photography- 1. the collecting of "anonymous" photographs. 2. "snapshots", very often by amateurs.

Still

What a beautiful spot, it seems entirely tucked away from the stresses of life. We should all have such a place...
