Vignette Update
So I’ve been talking about vignettes for a couple of weeks (read about them here and here) and I was at the point that I thought I had it all figured out…until I realized how many pieces are needed to create a unique story of textures and layers. But, while I still work on cobbling … Read more
Color Inspiration: Gray
This was the hardest Color Inspiration post to write (check out a couple others here and here) so far. Gray is a color that is totally open to interpretation as it can blend into the tan family on one end and become inky black on the other. So, take the following images with a grain … Read more
Color Inspiration: Purple
I’m not much of a purple girl. I’ve always put the color in the same category as princess tiaras and cotton candy but these images have me rethinking my whole perspective.

Inspired by Teal
Check out this post at Take-A-Look Tuesday I knew my apartment didn’t have much color but when I posted the pictures of what it looks right now it was downright depressing. So I started hitting up interior design blogs and Pinterest not finding much that caught my eye until I saw this beauty: via And by … Read more
I describe myself as a design enthusiast – art, interior design, fashion – I love it all. Here’s a glimpse of what catches my eye around town, on the web, and everywhere in between.
