this water...



I saw this water on unruly things this afternoon and I just think their website is adorable. Too bad they are all the way in England or I would gladly try out their uber cute new product.

pretty, pretty...


I think I would actually be happy to get up in the morning if I had a bathroom that looked like this!

in love...



Design*Sponge posted on bath mats yesterday and, I'm not so sure how I feel about this, but I believe I may have fallen in love with a bath mat.

terms of endearment....


I thought it was awesome that made by girl used the word "hubby" on one of her card designs. I use that word all the time, but I've never seen it in print until now. Check out other card designs by made by girl!

it's a boy!

As of last night at 6 pm, I am now an aunt! E's sister and brother-n-law had a little boy that they are naming Samuel. He is 7 lbs. 14 oz. We are all very excited and very much looking forward to meeting the wee lad. Let the baby spoiling begin!

FYI, for all of you with babies in your lives, this gift guide from etsy is really fun and it has an RSS feed so it tells you when it has found fun things. I've already made recommendations to friends from this handy tool.

window lace...


A couple weeks ago I posted on decorative window films that were very pretty but just too expensive. {J'taime post} But thanks to {Simply Stated}, cheaper options have been discovered like this etched lace patterned window film from Home Depot. {Home Depot Etched Lace Window Film} I plan to order as soon as measurements are made to see how many rolls I need!

What a lovely discovery from Creature Comforts {www.creaturecomforts.typepad.com}
I now must think of my next photo project, just so I can have something this adorable on my coffee table.

I love this idea from Real Simple's blog, "Simply Stated." Highlight a fun design without the worry of overwhelming a room.

shopping find...


I went shopping over the weekend with Miss K and came across a surprising find at Old Navy...a terribly cute clutch. Now I just have to find that perfect place to take my clutch to....

dress me up...



I recently discovered Shabby Apple, an online store that carries sassy dresses. I've been pining for this one ever since.

I stumbled on these quirky little birds at Holly's Shop {http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=10036954} on etsy and I am super excited. I've been wanting to find just the right place for a wall decal from Blik {http://www.whatisblik.com/walldecals.html} but couldn't quite commit to a large space for them. These little birds are perfect for a small surprise above a window sill or peeking out from behind a piece of furniture. I bought one pack so as soon as they arrive I'll take a picture of the home they found in my home.

i'm in love with pockets


I've become thoroughly enraptured with pockets on dresses and when I saw this lovely little top from Urban, I think I drooled a bit. Over the weekend, I found a top with my coveted pockets at the Gap and on sale! I think I shall wear it tomorrow...

j'taime


I was clicking through my usual blogs this morning and stumbled on this post by Oh Joy!
http://ohjoy.blogs.com/my_weblog/2008/03/emma-jeffs-in-s.html

I was about to fall in love when I saw that Emma Jeffs' window films are made in the UK.

Shoot.
But wait, www.2jane.com sells them in the states! Hoorah!

But no, foiled again. $76 a roll, something this girl can not afford to spend.

I had thought I had finally found a lovely alternative to the mundane and often ugly ones at the Home Depot but alas, my bathroom will not have super cute Emma Jeffs' window films.
