Well folks, another week has flown by! It seems that time has decided to move faster and faster the older we get. I just keep reminding myself to do what I love and do it with the people that I love. Life’s to short to waste any moment.
Next week I begin a new chapter in my career. I’m putting both feet in design and I’m pretty pumped. I can’t wait to start showing you some new projects that I’m working on.
See you on Monday!!

What a precious party for a precious little girl.

This wallpaper from Minakani Walls is my new fave. The colored eyes is such an unexpected surprise!

Stripes are a classic, right? I would love these yellow stripes from West Elm on my daughters bed.

My gorgeous friend Erin from Apartment 34 recently had her lovely loft featured on Refinery 29. I am completely smitten with her sofa! The camel color looks fantastic with the blacks, creams and wood tones surrounding it.
See more of Erin’s home here.

The new DeMarco Occasional Table from KGB is timeless and beautiful! The DeMarco tables are hewn from a single block of Statuary marble then set atop a solid base of Nero Marquina. Pretty.

The Grand America Hotel, where Alt was located in SLC, has the cutest kids shop called JouJou. I got Ethan this Muscle Joe robot from Piperoid. We put it together last night. It already has a broken foot…:)

There are certain days where I find myself snuggled on my sofa with 2 to 4 blankets wrapped all around me. I love blankets and throws!! The Loaded Trunk has a great variety of beautiful blankets from around the world. Colorful and neutral, pick your favorite. I have my eye on that colorful stripe number.

Inspired and motivated is exactly how I feel after spending 4 days at Alt Summit. Being around so many talented people creates such momentum and excitement. From conversations about future collaborations to listening to some of this industries brightest talents. I have set a few pretty large goals upon myself this year, knowing that if I believe in myself, step out in faith and recognize that it’s a all about working with a community and NOT living on a boat for one, I can achieve those things.
On Thursday I spoke with Jenny, Emily and Morgan on The Ins and Outs of Interior Design Blogging. I seriously love these gals and walked away with alot of great points and ideas. I feel honored to have been included with them.
I also ADORED my roomies, Promise, Jasmine and Liz. These 3 might be taking over the world soon! I have made some incredible friends in this community that I am SO thankful for and grateful that they believe in me and vice versa. Oh and my travel partner/cousin and I had quite the journey home (missed flights, stuck in Denver, lost bags, ruined bags…you know, the usual) but being together made it a whole lot better!

Hi friends! I just got from Alt yesterday and I’m forcing my eyelids to stay open. (I’m praying my daughter wants to take a nap today.) I had a fantastic time and I’ll fill you in a little later.
I wanted to thank HGTV and Jeanine for featuring me on HGTV.com. You can check out my tip for storing winter gear here.

Hey Peeps! I hope that your week is going swell! I’m currently at Alt Summit. My throat is already sore from being a chatty cathy but every conversation is so fun and so worth it!
That handsomely talented husband of mine designed my business cards for me this year. I’m in love with them! What do you think??
See you on Monday!!!

This beautiful girl holds a special place in my heart. She is very close to my family, watches my kids like they’re her own, sings beautiful songs at my church as well as with her super talented band, Hollowood, and blesses everyone around her with sweet encouraging words. Lyndsay Wright is like a modern day Pollyanna.
2 weeks ago this Thursday, Lyndsay was diagnosed with Leukemia at the young age of 19. Our hearts broke for a moment but because of her extremely strong faith, we have much hope for her complete healing and recovery. She is responding very well to chemo. Her doctors are really really pleased with her progress!
I invite you to follow her story here or here . And if you’re local, there will be a benefit concert on Lyndsay’s behalf this Friday, January 20th, at The Venue from 6-11pm.
We love you Lyndsay!

Where has my baby gone?? Ethan got “real” glasses last week and lost a tooth, all in the same day. He’s pretty proud of his glasses, which I’m so thankful for. I was worried that he wouldn’t be into them, but I was wrong! Speaking of the stud, I think that he would approve of this colorful map. What a great learning tool for a kids space. And how fun all are all of those bright colors?!

The Lili Lite is genius! It’s a reading light, bookmark and bookshelf combined into one smart product. A sensor turns off the light when an open book is placed on the shelf. When the book is picked up again, the light automatically turns on. Very cool.
