Words so sweet....

I fell in love with a piece that I saw over at Brooke's posting about her child's nursery on Blueprint Bliss. After doing some digging (emailing Brooke and her so kindly responding) I found out who makes this beautiful artwork - Sugarboo Designs. I googled them and of course went to their website and all I can say is WOW. I was captivated by all the beautiful words that Rebecca and her husband, Rick ,have captured and creatively displayed on SO many different types of artwork! I seriously could spend hours just sitting on their site reading all the amazingly heart felt quotes...

Not only are the pieces touching but they would look fabulous in any space! Everything from signs, handmade frames, and much much more. I want to hang them all over my apartment (ok, that might be overboard in my 1,000 sq.foot brownstone...but still) - I just love them! This is one talented duo over at Sugarboo and I will most definitely be purchasing multiple pieces in the future. Be your own judge and check them out here! And thanks again Brooke !


Love it!


How sweet in a nursery?

They have so many small frames that would make for amazing gifts!


Have a good week!

Amazing kitchen...

I stopped by Lauren's blog, Pure Style Home, and stumbled upon this amazing kitchen story! Guest blogger, Brooke Giannetti from Velvet & Linens, told her story of a fabulous kitchen re-do. I love this kitchen "after" AND "before"! Something about the space is sooo inviting and almost whimsical (if it's even possible for a kitchen to be whimsical)! Enjoy :)

Before
So pretty!
After

Love the rustic sign above the window and the bread box
She infused an industrial look into this "oh so" traditional kitchen by adding these chairs and painting the lights silver, very cool.


Read the full story here
Our kitchen is the last thing in the condo that we will be touching. Probably not until after the wedding. I will show some pictures in the coming weeks....but I am in so much envy of these images. A girl can dream can't she!?

Perusing blogs...

So as I have been perusing through other people's blogs (yes, I know but it's Friday...gimme a break ;0), I found such a great posting that I wanted to share. I absolutely love vintage pieces in the kitchen and this posting from pink wallpaper showcases the use of vintage bread, flour, sugar etc...boxes. Just LOVE them! I can't wait to have a large and in-charge kitchen one day....
Love the different chairs around this antiqued wood kitchen table.


I wonder if there are accent lights in those open cabinets...if so I am sure it looks amazing.


So pretty. Again, all these looks are just so fresh, clean and simple. When I look at all the cut- outs I have kept of home magazines over the years...I come to find out that those adjectives are really what defines my decorating tastes. And pretty soon I am going to be able to decorate my first real "adult" apartment...so exciting! Moving in May and just can't wait for the decorating to begin...yes,I am 27 and have lived with a number of girls until now....growing up and moving in with a boy ;-)
