if you ever need a pick me up...
check out this polaroid blog adie loves polly. Jenifer Altman from nectar & light posts her 4-year-old daughter's pictures. They are wonderfully sweet and can't help but put a smile on your face.

going to the chapel...
It seems that every summer I need a dress for the numerous weddings of the season. I call it my "wedding dress." I found this dress in the Anthropologie catalog that arrived in my mailbox yesterday afternoon. I think my mouth dropped agape when I saw it, it's so pretty. Hmmm...maybe I need a trip to the Anthro store this weekend.

light and airy...
I was on Apartment Therapy this morning and saw this lovely little craft project. Normally I think fake flowers look tacky but I think these light and airy crepe paper ones could be kind of cool.

illumination ideas please...
I'd like to replace the ugly 1980s ceiling fan that is in our dining room. I'm not quite sure what I am looking for yet, I was thinking chandelier but a pendant light could also be cool. Please let me know if you see anything cool around Madison or on the net!
