Lately...

We just wrapped up a 16-day house-sitting extravaganza. We temporarily gained a backyard, a vegetable garden (with the world's yummiest tomatoes), another black pooch, a grill, and  an expansive living space that made our little loft feel like a closet in comparison. We enjoyed every second; it was a good reminder of how much I am looking forward to having our own home someday...

Feathers

To me, feathers invoke feelings of beauty and nostalgia. Feathers themselves are simply stunning; they differ in color, size, and shape, yet all are so beautifully fragile. A couple of years ago, when we were still living in Wyoming, we started a little collection from feathers we found on the ground that we are still building on today. It is a fun hobby, and I love having them placed around our loft.
It reminds me of home. Can you tell which one is ours?

M. Elle Design

My mom and I always joke about starting our own interior design company. Our tastes are so similar, we would have a ball picking out furniture, textiles and lighting. But in reality I am sure it is MUCH more work than that, and it takes time and commitment. Here is a mother daughter duo that are designing lovely spaces and they look like they are having a good time along the way.

Swoon: Built in Beds

Maybe it's the fact September is finally here, but I am feeling cozy! Is there anything cozier than a built-in bed all to yourself?

Design Crush: Steven Gambrel

This guy really makes me wish I was a designer. Every space of his can be summed up with one word... perfection
