Citrus Shine

I miss flowers

 Reached that point in winter where just a smattering of green and color would be sooo welcome, instead there is a snowstorm on the horizon. Don't take it too hard and try to have a wonderful weekend!

Cool Peeps

 Have you heard of the tumblr Awesome People Hanging Out Together ? If you have time to kill you should check it out. You have to remember that most of these photos were taken before modern day paparazzi were breaking traffic laws and scaling security walls for pictures and social media just didn't exist. The idea of pulling back the curtain to see that celebs are "just like US" was a novel notion.

Nursery of the Week: What's black, white and turquoise all over?

Put on your super specs for this one - there is some crazy pattern going on here.

Perfect Playplace

Sooooooooooooooo Ready for Vacation

 

1. Jelly Sandal

2. Tory Burch Tote

3. Goldfish Tote

4. Cynthia Vincent Wrap Sandal

That goldfish tote is only $16! I have it and it is the perfect beach/pool bag. It's HUGE, folds flat and so that it can travel and is lightweight (made of jute).

1. JCrew One piece

2. Vilebrequin Boys Trunks

3. Mara Hoffman Bikini

4. Janie and Jack Girl's One Piece

1. Irving and Fine Dress

2. Theadora and Callum Caftan (similar)

3. Roberta Roller Rabbit Shirt dress

These are all items on the wish list. Ultimately I will be going to Target.
(Trying out something different and new (for this blog) with these boards - first time around took FOREVER to make but its fun to change it up)

Gather Round

Grouping all your faves together - a gallery wall is hard to beat when done right. Hang your frames at eye level, not too far below or above leaving at least 12 inches of wall to the ceiling. Space your pieces so there is about 2-3 inches between frames. Use frames that are similar in style, they don't all have to be the exact same.  Notice that just one thing unites the gallery in all these examples like below they are all black frames of various widths, sizes and mattings. Keep it interesting! Add other items like small mirrors and decorative objects that give more dimension. And if it all scares you then grab a piece of transparent paper and outline the frames and cut to size, tape it to the wall, and continue this process with all the frames until your whole gallery is hanging on the wall in paper. Adjust the arrangement to fit your liking, peeling the tape as you go. Once it looks right add the nails,  hang the frames over the paper and then pull the paper down ripping the nail hole.
