The first day of Spring brings this week’s favorite things. Clockwise, from the top right: 1) This Green Draped Trenchcoat looks incredibly fresh for the spring. Imagine pairing it with a lighter than air scarf. Perfect for the next brunch date with the ladies. 2) These Yarn Wrapped Easter Eggs look like a great way to get the house ready for […]
I’ve been trying hard to bring more of the assorted holiday spirit into our home. The Older learns about them at school (which is great!), and while pulling projects and homework out of his bag after coming home, he’ll ask if we celebrate an upcoming holiday. Sometimes I explain the day is to remember someone […]
Gold and green take over this week’s favorite things. Clockwise, from the top left: 1. Spring is so close – like thisclose – and this Lavender Field Wreath is an elegant, yet simple, way to say good-bye to winter. 2. These 3-D Four Leaf Clovers from MJ of Pars Caeli are perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. I […]
I’ll always have a soft spot for brown paper packages tied in string, but here are this week’s five favorite things. Clockwise, from the top left: 1. I cannot get enough of Elkebana’s wall mounts. I’m sure someone, somewhere, who is incredibly handy with a drill and has a box of test tubes is already plotting […]
I cannot believe it’s 2015! To say the end of 2014 was quick-clipped might be a bit of an understatement; it came at a neck breaking speed. There were more than a few moments I hit the “be present” button to fully appreciate what was happening around me, which meant many other tasks were pushed to side – […]
I’m so excited to share this Favorite Find with you today! Jessica Angel, owner of Oh So Antsy, and I first met in Salt Lake City during this past January’s Alt Summit Conference – only to find out we live less than 20 minutes away from one another in Seattle. How’s that for a small world? Jessica […]
I was unsure if I was going to finish this before the deadline for the Cricut Design Space Challenge – but it appears I just might make it in time (whoa!). I mentioned yesterday, my team’s theme for this round is “Dreamy White Holiday,” and for me, it means time with friends and family (and snow!). The holidays weren’t […]
Brace yourself: we’re on the last all-team Cricut Design Space Star challenge. I feel really fortunate to have been a part of it and challenge myself creatively over the last four months (it sounds kooky, but working within Design Space requires a different way of thinking, but in a really good way – and makes crafts and various […]
Parkas. Coats. Jackets. Hoods. Toggles. Shrugs. They’re all fabulous. Outerwear, to me, is like a bow on a gift. It pulls the entire presentation together. The Multi-Purpose Coats: These styles are timeless and the perfect go-to coat. Perfect for work, taking littles to soccer practice – or skateboard park – and enjoying a night out on the town. The Office Layers: […]
On Halloween I like to hang a black light above our door in a paper lantern. The neighborhood kids really dig it. They hold out their costumed arms, stick out their legs and shoes, and move their treat bags around to look at the glow. It’s comical sweetness; the comments are downright funny but the awe is […]
