Space is Nice

Even more than kitchens, lately I've been really drawn to bathrooms and closets--probably because these are two areas of our place that are very much miniature...

I love the shelf of shells--so relaxing. (Remodelista)
Not the most practical, but definitely the most pleasing! (Desire to Inspire)

Bonpoint Children's Clothing

Can't get enough of this French clothing website--Bonpoint (via Black Eiffel). Top row = Baby; Bottom Row = Young Girls.

New Art

New Walls need New Art... B and I are headed back to Southern California and I'll be dreaming of these prints while riding shotgun in the Uhaul...


Brown? Orange or Turquoise? Can't decide... What is your vote?

Making Mittens

I've gotten the urge to knit mittens. Not mittens in the general sense of the word, but 2 very specific mitten patterns. Its a new knitting challenge for me and breaking into new territory is exciting. I've just cast on the gorgeous mittens on the cover of Winter Gifts by Martin Storey for Rowan (I love this book, by the way—it is fabulous).


The other mittens on my to-make-queue? Bella's Mittens of course! I found these awesome mittens, inspired by a pair that Bella wears in the movie Twilight, when I joined the Twilight Lovers group on Ravelry. Why does this delight me so? Pattern and Photo from Subliminal Rabbit.

New Book: Ranch Houses - Living the CA Dream

Looking forward to this book being out!

Update--just found out there is a book signing next Thursday night (7pm) at SOLO in Solana Beach. I'm there! Oh, and it appears I'm not the only one dreaming of ranches...
