client design.

Some super sweet friends of ours are having baby boy number

 three any day now. About a month ago she asked me to put together

a design for their master bedroom. They decided to put new baby

 in the bedroom with them and she was super stoked cause

 that meant that they "had" to do a master bedroom makeover!

They are a super fun family and love bright colors and a contemporary style!

She found some baby bedding on sale at Target that was

lime green/orange/gray...and that was my inspiration for the entire room...

One design element that we decided to work around (for fear of what was behind it!)

was a large wall of mirrors behind the bed...i found the solution was found on Etsy.com...

11" radial vinyl decals that i hoped would make a

statement in the same way a large scale wallpaper would...and at the same time

 would distract from the huge mirrored wall!

 a new rug, fabric to add length and pattern to plain white

 curtain panels, artwork, pillows etc... were all ordered

 and arrived last week! we got together Saturday morning

 and had a fun time putting it all together! 

i think the biggest impact was definitely the mirror decals!

we loved how they turned out!!!

i painted this tree triptych to hang over baby's crib...

 i tried to pull in as many colors from the other
artwork and fabrics as i could...

another handmade piece in the room is this pillow...

 eventually it will sit in an upholstered rocker that has been
ordered but has yet to arrive!
...it is cut out white felt on a solid orange fabric...
super cute and super easy peasy to make!

and this is the last pic I have because my camera died

...typical. i always forget to charge it!

i had so much fun putting this room together for this precious

couple...now it's time for baby boy number three to arrive!!!

fashionista inspiration.

i was cleaning some folders out on my computer and came across

bachelorette bash.

my sweet sweet highschool friend, Simran, is getting married in November!!!

Her bachelorette partay was this past weekend in Breckenridge, CO....

YAY for the bride to be!!!

 She gave us our bridesmaid outfits the first night we were there....

LOVE THEM!!!!

...this is the AMAZING cabin we stayed in.

 we were all ooohing and aahhhing over the gorgeous scenery the entire trip.

I didn't know any of Simran's other friends going

into the weekend but by the end I felt so close

with all of them! They were all so sweet and welcoming!

we had a great time white water rafting, singing kareoke,

having a spa day, eating and just having an overall

 fabulous celebration for Simran!
