foodie to follow: call me cupcake

Food blogs take up most of the space in my reader. I do work on a lot of food packaging projects, but really, food photography is my porn. I love it so, so, so much. Could look at it all day long. And no one is doing it better than... Continue reading

In one weeks time we have our first guests coming to stay with us at our new place. It's a very exciting time, especially considering we couldn't house guests at our last place. So really, these friends are our first house guests ever. Here's the problem- that means I have... Continue reading

Nothing will make a space feel more alive than actually putting something alive into it. Last weekend I spent some time tending to the green in my life and as a result, our house is starting to feel more and more like a home. via woon blog via vincinity studio... Continue reading

Creative personality: in the idea or in the details?

I read once that as a creative person you excel or enjoy one of two things: Coming up with the big idea, or focusing on the nitty gritty details. It made sense, but I also don't know if I completely agree. Maybe it's the gemini in me, but I've never... Continue reading

I picked these little buddies up at the thrift store for $2.65 a piece. They had a pretty sad green and black faux paint finish and I just knew they could be oh so cuter. The dilemma was white or gold leaf. So I chose gloss white with gold leaf... Continue reading

Luggage tag poster

Graphic, simple, vintage, modern. Loving hard on these posters by Neil Stevens created from vintage luggage tags. You can get your very own over at Crayon On Fire. (I'm trying to figure out how to sneak one into my decor now as I type...) Continue reading

Breathtaking street art

Last weekend my sweetie and I were down in Culver City doing a little shopping and we discovered some pretty incredible street art. These two pieces simply took my breath away. They are massive and extraordinary. If anyone recognizes the signature in the last photo, please let me know. I... Continue reading

Thrifting is one of my favorite things to do. Yes, there are a lot of great flea markets around here- and those are fun- but there's just something about combing through a bunch of junk. Yes junk. And spotting that little treasure buried or hiding just out of site. Looking... Continue reading

Non recipe recipe: Brussel Sprouts

For years I thought I didn't like brussel sprouts. (Maybe you can relate?) Turns out, I just never had experienced them cooked properly. The same thing happened to me with steak. My Dad is of the opinion you cook it until it is a shriveled black puck. I will never,... Continue reading

an office ottoman redo

I can hardly wait to show you my dining room turned office. I've been busy at work making it gorgeous and I'm pretty sure it's going to be my most favorite working space to date. It's the one room that Craig has absolutely no say in, so I'm taking it... Continue reading

At the beginning of the year I was contacted by Meghan Kirpatrick of Sweet Heirloom photography to create some custom tags for her very own wedding in Mexico. Meghan is one half of the dynamic duo of Sweet Heirloom and their wedding photos are just superb. I love the way... Continue reading

new life for an old throw

Ah moving...one of those times in life where we get rid of the old, welcome the new and rediscover things forgotten. Case in point: these pillows I made from a vintage afghan. I made these when I lived in Minnesota and actually never used them. It was shortly before I... Continue reading

so I bought a farmhouse table

Last weekend we bought our first piece of furniture for the new house. A GINORMOUS farmhouse table. I knew I wanted one- I'm turning what would be the small dining room off of the kitchen into my office, so wanted a dining area in the front room. I knew a... Continue reading

pinner to follow: Nordic House

I just discovered Nordic House on pinterest and I'm loving the simple, neutral environments and vignettes highlighted on their boards. Some day I would love to live in a simple all white space- although I'm sure it would be a distaster with our rambunctious pup! (She sure would look pretty... Continue reading

the home of sara and julius

"What?" That's all I could say when I saw these images of Sara and Julius' 18th century flat in Sweden over on French by Design. I love the perfectly imperfect curated feel, the limited palette, and the mix of modern and vintage pieces. The thought of having my clothing and... Continue reading

a space to work in

Pinterest is the modern day window to the soul. I tell anyone I know who is having a hard time decorating their space to just go start pinning things they like. Not things they think they want in their spaces. No, rooms already created that just make them FEEL good.... Continue reading

Sorry for the radio silence this week, but I'm furiously working away on a special, fun project. Here are some hints: It's something you can wear, and I'm playing with coffee filters, cupcake liners, parchment paper and jelly beans. Can't wait to show you the finished project! For now I...

Minneapolis & meatballs

Sometimes I think the thing I miss about Minneapolis the most are my favorite restaurants. But sometimes it's even more fun to discover new joints that have popped up in your absence. Our first day back in Minneapolis we were looking for a quick lunch, and my criteria was that... Continue reading

OMG- we can not wait to move in!! It's pretty incredible, we were really lucky to find it. AND I think I've figured out a way to keep the second bedroom as a guest room and have my office in a different spot. I'll keep you posted- I plan on documenting my decorating adventures here!

Mammoth: the eating part

One of my favorite things to do when I travel is eat. I love discovering new places and having new eating experiences. While we were in Mammoth though we didn't go out to eat at all. Not once. I would feel kind of bad about it, but we had a... Continue reading
