Moonrise Kingdom + Dear Creatures dresses

We found out yesterday that Moonrise Kingdom is finally opening in Cleveland today, and we’re going to see it right after work. I have been anxiously waiting to see the latest Wes Anderson movie ever since the trailer was released months ago. I AM SO EXCITED! This movie looks like the inside...

Cute & Modern Address Stamps From Etsy

Since we’re in the process of moving, you know what that means? We need a new address stamp, of course! One of my favorite things is using the return address stamp we bought when we got married, especially on the most boring mail and bills. We wanted to choose a new one that’s a little more modern...

Guest room bed inspiration

I went to the Cleveland Furniture Bank the other day to pick up some things for the wedding (I love that our wedding theme allows me to walk away with boxes of $1 things from the thrift store!). While I was there, I saw some really great bed frames that...

House Tour: Master Bedroom

Hey, how was your weekend?! That extra day is just the best. We did a whole lot of relaxing and napping and started the really not fun job of cleaning out our attic. It took about 30 minutes of work to fill three huge garbage bags, so I guess we’re...

Quick Patio Refresh for Spring

Let’s take a quick break from the kitchen to talk about the back yard! The weather has been SO NICE lately and all I want to do is hang out outside, but our patio is way less than welcoming. Think mildewy cushions, mismatched plastic furniture, and no cohesive design whatsoever, all on...

Room of the week: Amy Butler

Amy Butler, textile designer extraordinaire, also has a pretty extraordinary home. Featured in Apartment Therapy last April, I haven’t been able to forget this gorgeous room in Granville, Ohio, near Columbus, ever since. It’s modern but comfortable, cool and warm, new and old. I love the mix of clean-lined,...

Colorful wedding dresses by Alice + Olivia

When I was looking through the Alice + Olivia Spring 2013 Ready to Wear collection the other day, I stopped in my tracks on a couple of absolutely gorgeous, long, colorful dresses, and my first thought was, “I’d wear that as a wedding dress.” Not typical at all, and most...

Inspiration: bright & modern living

I am soooo inspired by this home designed by Depot Rotterdam out of The Netherlands. I love that it’s crisp and modern but yet totally inviting and comfy. This is a great space for a modern family. And those colors! Oh, wow. I can’t even get over the hot pink...

Retro living at its best

As soon as I saw this home, I fell madly in love, so I absolutely have to share it with you. The front of this house in Toronto is totally unassuming, but inside is an absolute treasure trove of vintage awesomeness, virtually unchanged since the 1950s and 1960s. The 96-year-old homeowner has...

How to Sound Proof a Noisy Refrigerator

When we moved into this house we had three problems with the fridge that was here: 1) It was a side-by-side. If you can’t fit a pizza box in it, what is the point of a fridge? 2) The handles were broken, and being held on by some sort of...
