Happy Love Day!

Happy Valentines Day Lovelies!!
Are you doing anything special today?

I celebrated with a crafty night with my sis and a good friend last weekend.  
We made Vday cards and ate chocolate souffles - a tradition my sister has created.  
It was the perfect way to kick off the holiday.  

I brought over old wallpaper samples and random leftover items from the wedding....


My man and I usually don't do anything too crazy.  
I feel like we just got done with the holidays (and his birthday) so it's nice to just take a step back from the whole gift thing.  I did however, pick up this gem for him:



& he found his way to straight to my heart with these:

Life is sweet.

Vendor Spotlight: Coral and Tusk

I just finished my latest sit down with Martha Stewart's Living Magazine.
I read it hoping I will become more domesticated, but usually just ooh and ahh over the crazy in depth recipes.  

However, this past issue showcased the works behind the NY shop Coral and Tusk.  Founder Stephanie Housley works as a textile designer and started her own shop five years ago.  
You have to check out her site.  
The embroidery is whimsical and fun with just the right amount of imperfection.

I could easily see some of these pieces in a little children's room or better yet....mine!

Pillow Perfection

HAPPY FRIDAY!!

What makes me happier than the best day of the week?? 

Pillows!

I scored some awesome pillows at lunch and now I have them on the brain.  
They can easily update a room without breaking the bank and they are perfect for an indecisive girl like me.  Since I can't afford to switch out big pieces of furniture, switching out pillows is my go-to. 

These make the top of my list...

Eye Candy


I'm always kicking myself for not being able to post as regularly as I want (sigh). 

But the truth is I work full time and I have no energy when I get home
& with the holidays around the corner it's not getting any easier!!

So in an effort to give you something....

Here's a look at where I've been and what I've been up to - through the lens of my iphone.
