Last week I shared that we’re heading to my sister’s house to help her get ready for her new baby boy’s arrival. I also shared a mood board and some details about the nursery. You can see that full post here. I’ve worked on expanding beyond that mood board and digging deeper into actual design […]

Today we’re going to talk about a design challenge. Remember how the cute baby shower I threw for my sister last month? Well now that she has all the cute baby gear, we need to design her space. However, its not quite as simple as just plopping down the items from her baby registry into […]

I’ve had a lot of design ideas on my mind lately and I can’t seem to sort it all out. When this happens with my wedding design clients, I always recommend making mood board, honing in on their vision and then style specific pieces together. This is my attempt to follow my own advice. I’m […]

I shared last week that we were planning a baby shower for my sister. Most of the celebrations my family has hosted is the past have been pretty girly… from wedding showers, baby showers and birthday parties there have not been many “masculine” celebrations planned. And I’m really not sure this one qualifies as masculine […]

My sister is having a baby. It’s the first baby boy shower that I’ve had a large role in planning. We have a pretty female donated family, so I’m sure he’s bound too shake things up a bit and it sure has been fun planning a shower that isn’t cotton candy pink. We’ve been scheming […]

Yet there are some things on the horizon that I’m dreaming about and some things that you might want to be on the look out for. Some are personal, some are business related and some are teetering on that line. Owning your own business makes it all feel personal.

I’ve had shift in the past few years on how I think about love and how I can share that with people beyond my household. Love is a lot of things, the ways you can describe it are seemingly endless.  But one way that seems to sticking with me lately is the selfless nature of love. Thinking beyond your own needs, wants and desires and putting others first.  That is love.
