As I was decorating my new apartment, I decided I needed my first piece of real art. Yep, I did. And so, my Hugo Guinness collection has begun. I have been having a love affair with Hugo (yes, of those Guinness’s – cousin of Daphne) prints for awhile now, and knew one needed to be…

the trend board project
Sometimes, to take a break from the real serious business I do at my job, I like to create fun mood/trend boards for inspiration, putting to good use all of those magazines I have lying around. I love that my job is such a mix of left brain/right brain – just like me. Creative, but…
travel diary: chicago part 1

glitter pumpkins
I decided to create some festive glitter pumpkin decor for my kitchen table the other night (last minute, I know…). Inspired by DIYers Martha Stewart (the OG), Grace of Stripes & Sequins and the Glitter Guide. I used simple gold and silver and I think they’re pretty cute!
