When I first heard about Boston-based artist Leslie Graff from Design Mom, I instantly fell in love with her work. Tuesday night, while at Pivot Boston (an amazing event that brought together women who want to make or have made a change in their careers that bring them more joy/fulfillment/peace of mind/etc.), I squealed a [...]

I’m off to Vermont this weekend for a family wedding (congratulations Lauren and Justin!)…how about you? The wedding is in the north country, so I’ll have lots of time to catch up on reading on the way up and back. It’s been a really long time since I’ve spent hours getting lost in my favorite [...]
Let them eat cake!
Posted in Art, Kids' Stuff, Shop It, Walls on March 1, 2011 | 1 Comment »
In another life, I was a pastry chef. Seriously. I can barely cook an egg, but man, can I bake a good cake. Ok, so it’s usually from a box, but I make it really pretty when it’s done, just like these… {aren’t they divine?} {spring is just around the corner…} {‘scuse me while I [...]
A Touch of Nautical
Posted in Art, Décor, Fashion, Floors, Outside, Shop It, Walls, Windows on February 14, 2011 | 2 Comments »
About this time of year, the stripes start to send signals… …that spring is coming! I love a touch of nautical in my wardrobe, but I’ve always been a bit of sucker for it in my home too. Remember this post? Last fall, I went to the Brimfield Antique Show with my friend Cheri, and I [...]
Currently Coveting

I know it’s a sin, but I’m just not that religious. Here’s what I’m coveting for my home this month…how about you? Casually elegant stemware that can serve up milk or mimosas equally well, fishy rugs, simply beautiful turned wood lamps, the Hans Wegner classic, Michael A. Palmer’s view of the world, [...]
Punxsutawney Phil and Bucks County Frames

In case you hadn’t heard, Phil predicted an early spring. Yeah, right. {she says, staring at three feet of snow outside her bedroom window} Anyway, Phil isn’t the only good thing coming out of the great state of Pennsylvania these days. On a recent trip to the land of Etsy, one of my pals showed me [...]
Memorializing a Favorite Stuffed Animal
Posted in Art, Kids' Stuff, Reinvent It, Shop It, Walls on January 31, 2011 | 2 Comments »
When Weston was a little older than a year, Monkey arrived. It was love at first sight, really. Maybe more for me than Wes at first, but the second I saw that little monkey-shaped bundle of love staring at me from the basket in the toy store I knew we needed to bring him home. Weston and Monkey [...]

Logic quiz: Poor self-image is to fashion magazines as WHAT is to home decor catalogs? I don’t know either, but sometimes I feel like I have it, whatever IT is. Occasionally I get sort of taken over by staging my house…rolling up the throw blankets and storing them just-so in a gorgeous basket (you’re cold? grab one [...]
Star Wars for the Design-Minded
Posted in Art, Reinvent It, Shop It, Walls on October 7, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
My older son is really into Star Wars right now and decided (supported by my husband, and much to my chagrin) that he would love a “giant Star Wars poster with, like, Darth Vader or General Greivous or somethin’” on his newly painted wall of his new bedroom in our new house. Um, no. Since lightsaber-wielding, gun-toting [...]
Linnea Prints
Posted in Art, Shop It, Walls on January 25, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
The first time I spotted the Linnea Calendar at my local Paper Source, I was instantly drawn to it. I love woodblock prints, and although I wasn’t sure of the technique that was used, the calendar reminded me of one of my very favorite artists, Sabra Field. But like most fabulous things I see when I’m and about [...]
