Vintage Details

 

I am crazy about these over-sized spindles, that is the right name for them I hope?! I just can't ever get enough of vintage details.  This tablescape is absolute perfection in my book...

Happy Weekend!

Happy Easter!

I love this simple yet beautiful display of eggs. I haven't dyed eggs in forever until recently when I was putting together a centerpiece for a photo shoot at work. However, I've never dyed eggs naturally like the ones photographed here. Have you ever tried this? You can check out all the details here.

I'm Back!

If there is anyone left out there still reading my blog, I'm sure you've been wondering where I have been!!?? Well, life has been pretty busy since February. My hubby and I took a belated first anniversary trip to Thailand and Cambodia and it was pretty AMAZing! Here are a few of my favorite photos from our trip...

If that wasn't enough excitement for the month, upon my return to work I received a promotion...whoop whoop!! I'm officially now the photo stylist for Celebrate magazine.  This new position has been keeping me very busy, but I am having a blast! If you need some entertaining inspiration, you should pick up a copy!

Confetti Table Runner

I'm loving this festive DIY confetti table runner! It is an easy way to spice up the table for your next dinner party. Are you thinking about hosting friends over for Valentine's Day? Combine this confetti with a gorgeous arrangement in pink hues and you will have the perfect tablescape!

How will you be celebrating Valentine's Day this year?

Have you forgotten me?

 

I know...where have I been right??  I guess the holidays took more of a toll on me than I thought! I can't believe it is almost the end of January already, which means Valentine's Day is just around the corner. I'm not a huge fan of Valentine's Day, but my sweet tooth sure is...hello red velvet and cream cheese cupcakes! Not only do you look super delish, but you are beyond cute! You can get the recipe and also download the arrows here.

Mercury Glass Love

I have always loved mercury glass, and lucky for me, my parents let me keep all the beautiful mercury glass vases and candle holders they purchased for my wedding. I'm always pulling them out at Christmas to decorate with greenery and fresh flowers, but I love this idea of using them in a fireplace to cast a beautiful glow. Now, if only I had a fireplace!!

Burlap Stockings...

Lately I have be obsessing over adding burlap into my Christmas decor. I'm using a burlap tree skirt this year, and I've incorporated burlap ribbon into my tree topper, as well as the bow for the wreath on my front door. Oh how I wish I had a pair of burlap stockings (and a mantel) like the ones above. I love the natural, rustic look next to the beautiful Christmas greenery. I can't believe that Christmas is almost two weeks away! Have you finished your holiday decorating??
