big news flash........





one of my all time favorite designing couples has just introduced their new line of products! I am freaking out...in a good way....because as you know I have several of their pieces in my house here ..... in my dining room and den.....and also some for sale at the studio......I want ALL of the new designs.......:) I'm addicted....I know..... not only is their product beautiful but they are pure gems as well.....AND a hand written note with every order!
I wish all of you would visit their site here and buy them out......... I plan to stock up at knack.....:)
oh, and p.s......the model is miss "a" herself....looking fantastic ! xoxo
I want all of this.......
...I shot these pictures the other day at my friend Lisa's house. I have seriously coveted her outside eating area since the first time I saw it........she has so many different stools that line the table and the table itself is so fantastic! Her potting shed door inspired many a piece of furniture, and the twig chandelier totally stands on it's own!
........this is the same house that I helped with the nursery......I shot the nursery pictures as well and will have the before and after pictures for you on Monday....there are lots and lots to go through!
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend........thank you so much for all your sweet anniversary wishes...we feel so loved....xoxo
good enough to eat.......




clever, clever, clever..........I found this loaf of bread over at a new fun place to visit called the craft begins...... and couldn't help passing it along....xo

knack needs these.....




I have been dreaming of these, and thinking that I need to order some for my trees and porch at home... and then some to hang from the ceiling at knack........... I think I feel a purchase coming on.......just how does a knack girl pick from all of these gorgeous colors! xoxo
new additions.....
Happy Monday friends! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend full of good things.......I added some good things to my living room.......and I love them so!
My friend Kyle pulled these chairs out of a dumpster.......and I am so mad at myself for not taking a before shot of them {SO not like me!} but just imagine an awful "yellowy" taupe with many markings and totally rusted legs. EEEEK!
I took them apart, sanded down the legs and spray painted them black. I cleaned up the seats and used a fiberglass spray paint on them and ooh la la they are so pretty now! So clean and fresh, and I love the pop of white they add.
The table was a steal of a deal {one of my serendipitous finds!}........now to decide on the perfect accessories to finish off the look.......xo
to say it isn't so......
....and hardly more than ever....... are just a couple of the series names for chicago based artist Laura Letinsky's photography.... which is on display now in the James Hyman gallery
I'm totally intrigued......love the composition and the colors and the stillness of each photo.
Happy weekend friends! xoxo
