go ahead, let them color on your walls

The first time I saw coloring page wallpaper, I nearly fell out of my chair. Forget the kids’ room, I wanted the chance to color my own masterpiece anywhere in my home. I still feel that way – especially with some of the floral options from Spoonflower. Spoonflower is known for it’s custom prints of […]

DIY: crystal gem watercolor paintings for kids

Little girls – and big girls too – love shiny sparkly things. My daughter is no exception. If it sparkles and glistens in the sun, she’s ready to hoard it! In fact, she already has 3 different (small) treasure chests, and would happily gather several more to hold her collections of crystals, jewels, and rocks. […]

DIY: olympic flag garland

I love this craft!! OMG…we have been making these flags for days. This is one of those crafts that will stay out on the table for a long time because it’s so enjoyable and simple, and it sparks up so many interesting, worldly conversations. We’ve talked about everything from the way a flag came to […]

let’s have a sunshine carnival

This post is made possible with the generous support of vine.com. Thanks Vine! I am itching for summer. Itching for it in a way that’s hard to describe unless you’ve been through an endless 7 month long winter. It’s been a cold cold spring, and everything around here is just now, just barely, blossoming. So […]

wrapping up your walls

We’re planning to move. I say “planning” because there are one too many projects left on this house to actually say that we “are” moving. There are lots of little air quotes all over the place. But I do a lot of house hunting, and I have a dream list of things I want in […]

what shall we play today?

That’s what Collette Bream asks across the top of her Etsy shop, and it sums things up perfectly. I know around this house that question is asked many. many. many. times during the day. Her shop doesn’t give any kind of straightforward answer either. Instead, it feels like I’ve stepped into a perfectly curated little […]

chart this baby blanket into your future

I may be out of town doing supposedly (hopefully) fabulous things, but I didn’t want to leave you hanging! Here is an oldie but goodie: a favorite, yet often overlooked post that I wanted to share all over again. Enjoy! I’m dithering over this post. I’ve gone through several topics that are lingering on my […]

sfb 2.0: furry messages

I may be out of town doing supposedly (hopefully) fabulous things, but I didn’t want to leave you hanging! Here is an oldie but goodie: a favorite, yet often overlooked post that I wanted to share all over again. Enjoy! Forget chalkboard paint on walls, whiteboard calendars, stickers, post-its, and regular old notes. It’s time […]

grow your own hideaway

Where the heck is Spring?! I’m getting desperate over here, and it sounds like much of the Northern half of the US is feeling the same way: cold. It has me double-duty daydreaming of plants in an almost obsessive way. I caught myself huffing the dirt of one of my houseplants the other day. Honestly, […]

putting the j in junior

I’ve always thought Jonathan Adler really likes to play with his design approach. His style has been ready for kids decor and upbeat interiors for years. But now it’s verified: he has introduced us to Jonathan Adler Junior! They’ve even quietly included some of his existing line into the Junior category on his site, which […]
