Bringing Back Brass

I'm bringing brassy back, them other boys don't know how to act.  Feel free to sing along.  I love a little Justin Timberlake in the morning.  Wait...that sounds bad.  I'm just going to get to the point.  Brass has definitely made a comeback and in a good way.  It looks like the cool older cousin of the brass from the '80's.  It seems to be a little more reserved and sophisticated.  Like it hangs out in moody bookstores and hip coffee shops.

Guest Bath Inspiration Board

No School Today!  That means we are busy building with blocks, watching cartoons, dancing to some rockin' music and sharing a quick post with you all.  Here is my inspiration board for our guest bath.  I love the brass touches paired with black and white.  The herringbone tile floor is something I've been wanting to do for a while now.  Happy Friday!

Homemade Valentines For Kids

The first year Bean was in school, I forgot (until the night before) to buy cards to pass out to his classmates.  My husband stopped at the only store still open and paid a small fortune for a box of Snoopy valentines.  I stayed up into the wee hours of the morning signing the cards and stuffing them into envelopes.  Not my finest moment.  This year Bean and I will be making the valentines together.  Here are a few we are considering.

Farmhouse Finds: Laundry

I love doing laundry in the Spring.  I mean I LOVE it.  I love sorting laundry as a sweet-scented breeze comes in through the screen door. The sun is shining and the birds are chirping.  I love the way the linens feel after drying on the line.  The only thing that would make it better is if  the birds would hand me clothespins like they help Cinderella or Snow White.  That's probably not going to happen, but I would settle for some of these pretty little things for the laundry room.
