Eye Candy

Once again I've been a little MIA because work & life have been CRAZY!! 

We are planning for 3 installs this week at work and my weekends have been packed with 

weddings & road trips.

Luckily I've managed to snap a few pics along the way. 

Here's this week's Eye Candy...

Testing out some exposed filament light bulbs at Light Bulbs Unlimited. So pretty...

 In love with the colors on this ceramic table lamp found at Nicky Rising.

It took everything in me to not take these guys home...

Amazing Tulu fabric. 

I need these floors in my house one day. (Raoul textiles showroom)

The view of June Lake as we arrived for a friends wedding. Picture perfect!

Fantasizing about Fall

The weather has been so miserably hot lately that I can't stop dreaming about Fall....

I long for days of boots, scarves and jackets. 

I wouldn't mind having a living room like this to cozy up in either. 

Is that too much to ask??

Eye Candy

My latest dose of eye candy seen around town... 

In LOVE with this set up at Elizabeth Eakins. 

Spindle four post bed. A classic that I would love to curl up in. 

Another never fail classic - the Fiddle Leaf Ficus (in an amazing pot).

Sleek industrial swing arm wall sconce.

(All three seen @ LA Kneedler Showroom)

Two little love birds.

Wedding Flashback!

I just received this little (amazing) wedding video from the lovely and talented Chach Hernandez.

Paul and I had no intentions of hiring a videographer for our wedding. 

We just didn't think it was necessary.

Luckily our photographer had asked if his friend could tag along to shoot video of the wedding in order to build his portfolio. We casually said said "sure. why not." 

Might be nice to have some footage here and there...

All I can say is...I'm SO glad we did!! This isn't your mother's wedding video. 

This is artistic, fun, and something we will always cherish.  Brings me right back to that day.

Thanks Chach!!

I also want to give out a long overdue thank you to our friend and wedding planner Shelley Eschleman of Simply Santa Barbara Events.  Looking at the set-up on this video reminds me that she was there orchestrating everything while i was primping. Couldn't have done it without her!

Lonny Mag: Schwartz & Bender

I just finished drooling over the most recent issue of Lonny Magazine 

and I have fallen in love with the home of Kristi and Chris Bender!

Designed by Wendy Schwartz (now partnered with Kristi), the home has a fun quirky attitude and doesn't take itself too seriously.  Yet it all comes together seamlessly! 

Love. Love. Love.

Box Re-use

I finally got around to organizing the crafty mess left behind from our wedding and came across these extra kraft boxes intended for candle favors.

Since they were already stamped with our "logo." I didn't want to use them in the future. 

"Oh hey, here's a gift in this box with our love birds on it." Kinda cheesy.

Sooo....

I just cut along each fold to create rectangles and punched a hole in the top.  Tied a little string and Voilà! Gift Tags! How's that for a complicated DIY?

Eye Candy

For the past week I've been working out of the office nonstop - 

Pick up a knob here, a light bulb there, shop this fabric....oh and that fabric! 

It's exhausting to say the least (especially in this nasty heat).  

The only thing that keeps me going is the constant eye candy all around.  

Here's what caught my eye this week....

 

Colorful baskets and parsons desk from West Elm
