I am loving the Spring Conscious Collection from H & M. All made of 100% organic cotton and recycled hemp. A small step in the fashion industry’s attempt to create more sustainable, green products. All of these pieces went on sale yesterday so get them while you can!
As my little E Burger is quickly becoming a tweener (at the ripe old age of 6 1/2) she wants to redecorate her room. I think someone’s nose got bent out of shape with all of the attention that Lou’s Room has gotten. She has picked the color purple and we decided to have a paint party to test out a few techniques.
I am still digging myself out of the black hole of emails from being gone for 9 days. But I wanted to leave you with a little bit of color this hump day. How about this gorgeous table from Eddie Ross?
After our Spring Break plans blew up, my sister was kind enough to let the girls and I crash their Spring Break. The girls were so happy to be with their cousins and made memories that will last a lifetime.
We planned to spend three days at Disney, but after two full days I couldn’t take any more. Lou and I went to Dad’s house while E stayed with Karen’s family to brave Hollywood Studios. Word to the wise: Don’t EVER go Disney on Spring Break. I think that we maybe got on 4 rides each day. Although it is the “Happiest Place on Earth” I have never been happier than when I left Orlando. We had to laugh as we left the park at 11:00 the last night everyone looked absolutely MISERABLE. There were a few bright moments, and they made it all worth it.
This trip has validated what I already know about myself. I hate crowds, waiting and long drives. I am more of a sit and relax on the beach kind of girl. And after escaping Orlando, we were able to get in a little R & R.
And then there was the dreaded 14 hour drive home. Just so you know, there is no “off” button on this one. Uggggg…..
Many people ask me where I come up with color schemes. Honestly, it can come from anywhere; a dress I see on the street, a pillow, often times I get inspiration from things found in nature. One of the most unusual places that I find color inspiration is in food. For those of you who follow me on Pinterest, you know that I keep a Color Inspiration Board. Take a look at how these food color combos can create a beautiful space.
For instance, take a look at these food vignettes, and some of the rooms I found to match.
