Good Design

I recently came across this home tour and fell in love.
Lisa, author of ninaribena makes, is a one talented lady.
Check out her home!

I love the graphic prints, diverse use of color, and the mid-century modern vibe.
Lisa also designed most of the fabrics in her home, incredible huh?
You can check out her designs here.
I kinda want to be her best friend.

A Happy Day!

Today my hubby completed his second year of medical school!
Goodbye second year, you will not be missed.
I wanted to take a nice picture to mark this happy day.
Unfortunately all I got is licked, hit in the face, hair pulled, and silly faces.
Oh well, we are still thrilled!
Now only 6 years left…

Bookcase Complete!

I finally finished styling Emory’s bookcase.
I love the way it turned out, simple yet functional.
Here is the before:
And after!

It was in desperate need of some attention.
And what’s better than stylish toy storage?
The frames are from Ikea and I got he pictures printed at Costco.
The lamp, jewelry box, vase, and pedestal dish are all from HomeGoods.
I am happy to say that her room is complete!

A DIY Painting Project

I sat down at the computer for a couple of minutes to check my e-mails and finish a blog post.
Emory found the fabric paint.
She deserves all the credit for this DIY project.
She so kindly painted the floor, table, chair, rug, a doll, and her clothes.
I might need a minute…
