When I was working on my rope necklace I started thinking about nautical style. It seems to come around every year, or maybe every other year since I don’t remember it being a trend for last spring. Did I just miss it? It wouldn’t surprise me. Anyway, since I am easily distracted by the internet, [...]
Today’s DIY is inspired by the annual spring nautical trend. I love nautical style, and I’ll have a post tomorrow to attest to that fact. Rope is a classic nautical element, and you may remember that I recently linked to this tutorial for a knock-off of an anthropologie rope necklace. Mine is similar, [...]
I’m so excited to announce my very first giveaway/contest! New York Design Shop has a fantastic list of over 100 tutorials and the supplies to complete them. I must admit that I wasn’t familiar with the site before they contacted me about the giveaway, but now I’m excited to try out several of [...]
Friday morning in my “Links I Like” list, I included a link to adorable lightbulb terrariums, and that evening I had dinner with the woman who wrote the tutorial. I had no idea until it somehow came up during drinks after dinner. Crazy, right? Turns out she lives in San Francisco and is a friend-of-a-friend. [...]
This “bearskin” rug made from a recycled wool blanket is amazing. From artist Lise Lefebvre, via Etsy Storque.

You guys, I went and did something kinda crazy: I dyed my hair. Okay, so maybe you’ve been dying your hair for years and think it’s no big deal, but aside from the streaks of blue and purple I put in my hair in high school, I’ve never really dyed mine, and certainly never my [...]
Recently I added a bunch of vintage clothes to my Etsy shop, and throughout the week I’ll be adding more. Styling these outfit was actually pretty fun. Check back soon for new stuff!
(Actually these sold within hours of posting the listing. After wearing [...]
This week I actually started the tutorial days ago and planned to be done with it early. HAH. This week’s tutorial has involved a lot of failure. Honesty, if this were just for me, I probably would have given up. But I persevered because I already whiffed last week’s tutorial and didn’t want to make [...]
Street cart food on Friday at Fabric8, complete with multiple garnishes. Don’t know the name of the cart or this Mexican-inspired dish, but it sure was good. We also had lemon blueberry and earl grey creme brulees from the creme brulee cart. I really wanted s’mores creme brulee, but he was all out. Just as [...]
