Ruffles & Roses

Do you remember these adorable little onesies from Krafty Kym? Well now she is offering precious little girl's clothing. There is so much detail and craft that goes into these little pieces, what is not to love?

Have a great weekend!

Curatorial Eye

Cori Kindred has an eye for perfected detail. Every item in her shop I seriously lust for. Not only is everything styled and photographed beautifully but her entire offering is curated meticulously. I love the vintage covered matchboxes - perfection!

Simple Inspiration

I love this bandana inspired tablescape Country Living has created. What a great way to incorporate your favorite fabric into your wedding or dinner party! They have so many great ideas on their website - I am on it almost everyday.

Beautiful Bunting

I am a little bit obsessed with bunting banners and these by Lobster and Swan are my favorite to date! Look at all of the vintage gorgeousness layered on the top banner, and the stitching on the bottom blue one? Seriously, these are just perfection!

Thoughtful Day for Sunday Suppers

I am sure by now most of you have seen or heard about Sunday Suppers; the past couple of weeks tons of beautiful images have been floating around the internet which has been great! Karen Mordechai, one of the ladies behind Sunday Suppers just sent over these photos of all of the paper items I designed for the Moroccan supper. At the same event I also designed all of the patterns for Amy Atlas's dessert table so I decided to use the same custom designed mandala but compose it to better fit the tablescape and blend with the gorgeous moroccan tiles that were the centerpiece. The patterns were scaled to fit appropriately with each item, whether it was the belly band that surrounded the menu or the tags that hung on the lemon preserves. I just love the yellow of the lemons with the turquoise and gray of the favor tag. A great color combo! All of the menu and recipe cards had their own unique custom designed border that complimented the colorful patterns and mandala. It was such a fun project to work on with so much immense talent. So much work goes into one of these suppers and fortunately for all of us it is beautifully documented by Karen!

Sweetness Redefined

Lately my posts have been a bit few and far between, but I couldn't resist popping in really quick to post about the lovely cakes of the Caketress. Usually I am a fan of a simple cake with minimal color, but Lori Hutchinson's cakes are totally over the top in a truly amazing way! In the bottom photo, the flowers that appear to be stitched - no! Each thread was hand painted. Incredible.

For more cake inspiration, check out the Caketress blog.

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer!!!

Paper Cut Charm

Last week my husband sent me the paper cut illustrations of Helen Mussel White. They are just so precious and whimsical and delicate. What I love most about them is not only the beautiful hand cut shapes but the layering of her cute little illustrations. I would love to have a few of them lining my baby girl's wall!

Moroccan Inspired Deliciousness

Here are some more photos of Amy's dessert table that I created patterns for! As you know, so many lovely and talented women worked together on this and Amy has a great breakdown of all of our contributions on her blog!

Have a wonderful weekend!

I promise to resume blogging more soon! Motherhood - which btw is amazing, running a business & designing, and enjoying summer with the family has taken over almost all of my time!!
