Inspiration: Palm Springs Style

In an ideal world, I’d be in Palm Springs right now. One of our favorite past times is talking about what we’d do if we ever won the lottery. You know, that lottery we hardly ever play. But still. We’re dreamers. So the main plan of our...

New polka dot shoes

My friend pinned these adorable polka dot Cons on Pinterest and I bought them within, oh, about three minutes of seeing them this morning. I think this officially launches Polka Dot Week on Kerry & Co. Oh, what fun we’ll have!...

Eat up: s’more marshmallows, please

I like winter, but it can be tough. Between frigid temperatures, crazy winds and multiple stomach flus, it seems like we’ve been stuck inside for months. And unfortunately, the family member it’s hardest on is Ruby, our four-year-old goldendoodle. Sometimes… most times… there’s just no...

Let the yellow shine in

I just can’t get enough yellow. I think it’s actually impossible to be grumpy when you’re looking at it! But it can be a very difficult color to work with. Yellow can easily go too highlighter or too put-on-your-sunglasses, which is overwhelming for a lot...

Is there a floor in our kitchen?

Of course there’s a floor. Come on. We’re not walking around on support beams. We do have a floor. Our floor is actually sort of cool. When we bought the house, I remember thinking that I really liked the floor. It was this black and...
