A sweet bow from my friend Ebony!

I’m heading out early for a lovely holiday weekend; see you all right here on Tuesday.

Liz takes time lapse photos of her meals. Oh gracious, I love this (spotted at sweet Kathleen’s blog)!

Although I have to admit, I don’t know that I’m disciplined enough to stop in the middle of a yummy dinner and snap a photo. ;)

these halfhearted stripes…

these ceiling planks…

this airy office…

this floor mattress – turned bed…

this rustic, well-loved table:

these painted window frames and indoor tree:

this sweet dining nook…

Happy weekend, all!

This is the coolest paper plane installation I’ve ever seen.

Did you check your sheets?

Snurk Bedding is an irreverent take on your laundry’s worst nightmare. Love!

One of my sweet, sweet sponsors for my renovation is Barn Light Electric, who have kindly sent over a plethora of pendants for my new dream kitchen.

Can I just tell you how hard it was to choose which to receive? I mean, gracious. I am in love with everything on this site. Everything.

Husband and I pored over the site for a good three hours, and at one point, we both threw up our hands and said — “Shoot! I don’t know; let’s just get a factory cart!”

We didn’t.

Instead, we settled on the ever-so-perfect fixtures for our kitchen. Behold, the Mini Artesia (in yellow!) and Brewster Pendant:

Adorable, no? Don’t you just want to name your firstborn after the sweet little Brewster? I’m in love, and they’re perfect for our industrial little cabin. I can’t wait to show you how they look (if Husband ever gets that kitchen finished…)

Thanks, Barn Light Electric!

These look like nothing more than a child’s box of crayons, yes? Surprise…
