Break . Up

Not that I'm a cheerleader for divorce or anything, but I have to say that Scarlett Johansson and her new music partner Pete Yorn would make a way cuter couple than SJ and Ryan Reynolds...




...just sayin'...

Hanging . Gardens

I'm currently in the middle of redecorating three rooms in our house: the dining room, my studio, and the upstairs bathroom. The bathroom redo is not a full-blown fixer-upper, but more like a patch job. Let me be clear about one thing: the upstairs bathroom is not pretty. Really not pretty. So when we save up, I'm going to rip out absolutely everything and start completely afresh.

So until then, I'm trying to remake the room without spending more than $150 or so -- I can't really see the point of putting much more money and effort in when I'm eventually going to tear it all down anyway. I should be done with the whole room in a week or so, but here's a teeny peek at something going in the room:




I definitely wanted to add some plants to the bathroom, but didn't want just a traditional hanging basket. So I picked up these little wired jars at Urban Outfitters for $1.99 each, and then pulled apart a small Ivy Pothos ($2.99 at the grocery store), and put a few rinsed off stems in each jar. I hung them from the ceiling using plant hooks ($1.99 for 4) and thick jewelry wire ($2.99 for 10 yards). So for about $10, I got some cute new greenery for the almost-updated bathroom!

Cozy . Grey . Bedrooms

The colors and textures in this master bedroom and guest bedroom are so perfectly relaxing -- I could spend hours just lounging around in these spaces!

Last . Quick . Post {Closet Cleaning}

In an effort to rid my closet of things I don't wear, some of the never worn goodies are heading to eBay. I'll be sad to see them go, but happy to have someone who will use them & love them own them! You can find these pretty little Fendi pumps here

Oops!

Unfortunately I'll be away from blogging for a few days. My brand new (and thankfully still under warranty) computer is broken :(

It will be visiting the helpful people at the Apple Computer Store for a few days!!

I'll see everyone after the weekend!! Have a good one!!
