VICTORY!!!!!!!!!

Squillions of yards of delicious fabric and it’s MINE all MINE!!!!!! I want to thank all of you who sent me similar fabrics and leads on how to get some yardage of this preciousness. I decided to take a walk on the wild side, in the dark seedy underbelly of the fabric trade. It made [...]

I found pictures of my baby nursery! So trippy.

Preparing for Girly McBaby has made me super nostalgic for my own babyhood. While searching for hidden treasure in our attic the other day, my mom and I came across a photo album of the house I grew up in. Not pictures of us in the house, like my dad had shot it as though [...]

Nursery Diaries: Girly McBaby’s Bedding

I am so so happy with how Girly McBaby’s bedding for our home in Austin came out. If you need to catch yourself up on the overall scheme of the room, check out this post. Otherwise, you know that I pulled all of the colors for the room from this fabric: The crib is a [...]

Not in labor…

…Just lazy/late today and couldn’t really think of anything to post. Sorries. I did, however, see a post on Mrs. Meares’ blog last week that disturbed me and I felt I should comment on the situation. Apparently dip-dyed hair has become a trend. Even Lauren Conrad, someone I consider to be very beauty and well-groomed [...]

Progress at Meestah Bahnks.

I hear ya on the stairs, it’s a no go for sure. I’ll keep looking. There is progress occuring at Meestah Bahnks. The Kitchen which once looked like this: And This: Came to look like This: And This: And NOW has drywall and looks like DEESE! Cabinetry has been ordered… …And hardware has been selected. [...]

What say you?

Do you think this used as a stair runner would be too trippy? Like literally, would make you trip and fall because its like an optical illusion?

HGTV did something not eye bleedey

Normally HGTV “design” makes me sad. But I still watch it, like, all day every day- esp since I have put myself on semi-bedrest to avoid the heat. Recently though, I saw an episode of Dear Genevieve that was actually kind of great. Genevieve redid this teensy teensy tiny crash pad used by two designers [...]

Joshua and Robin Berry’s Childrens Trust

I don’t have much to say today except to ask you to please consider donating to the Joshua and Robin Berry’s Children’s Trust. Mom and Dad Joshua and Robin were driving back from a Fourth of July vacation in Colorado with their three young Children Peter (9), Aaron (8), and Willa (6) when they were hit [...]

That Oprah Lady is a big ol’ liar.

Oprah told me that if I visualized my dream and singularly focused on it long and hard enough, it would happen. AND IT HAS NOT HAPPENED. Britney Spears and I have not yet met. HOW, I ask you, is this possible? Well, I think I kind of blew it this time. So for this tour [...]

Pregnancy is kind of gross.

Sorry about my absence yesterday, I had a full day of Doctor’s appointments and I just couldn’t get my act together before we left. Today I am feeling too sorry for myself to be creative, so I am just going to tell you about my trauma yesterday. I had my biweekly BPP- which is a [...]
