One crafty Mom

This seriously creative {and time consuming} DIY project may be one of the best ideas I've seen yet when it comes to doodling. Jen of A thousand words took her son's drawings and with a little computer manipulation and some serious patients created a truly one of a kind bed duvet. I know a few little artists in my family that would love something like this....and just like that, another project idea is born.

Virginia Johnson

I'm finally out of the just get everything out of boxes and off the floor mode and into the stylizing part of our move, and its become quite clear we need another option for our bedding.  I like to change things out with new seasons, it helps keep things fresh, and these colorful block printed sets from Virginia Johnson are just lovely.  Made from 100% cotton, each are handmade and no two look exactly alike.  I'm loving this bright yellow waffle print, it would look perfect in our new taupe-ish colored bedroom.

Dwell on design part 2

I was super excited to see Wallter at Dwell on design, and I wasn't the only one, their spaces were packed!  I was only able to get one shot without another person, but it was worth the elbowing to get a peek.  I simply loved their powder coated aluminum planters, they are super modern and just fun to look at.  Plus they come ready to mount to the wall, hang or even on posts for outdoors.  The posts are my favorite.  Wallter also has a variety of goodies for your home, including lovely comforters, wooden paint-able wall decor and even fabric.

I can't wait for these outdoor post planters to become available!

What a fun take on a traditional lighting medallion.

I absolutely love this organic shape and color!
