I’m scooting out a little early today to make my way to over the Albany area to help celebrate the opening of Clark + Walker Studio‘s gorgeous new storefront in downtown Troy – I can’t wait to finally meet my buddy Luke in person! Coincidentally, my husband and I received a beautiful package in the mail …
I’m always entranced by the lovely creations, thoughtful inspiration and amazing photos of Sunday Suppers. This sneak peek of their recent fall harvest dinner has me on the edge of my seat waiting for more! I think this ribbon-bedecked ornate frame turned dinner menu is pure brilliance. I love how the curl of the ribbon …
I really love the cute notebooks, journals, address books, post cards, page markers and all of the cute little extras designed by Girl of All Work.

I adore this photo, sent to me by my good friend Luke Walker of Clark + Walker Studio. An adorable little bulldog wearing a pretty lavender leash is precisely my kind of puppy love. The beautiful bride with her big smile is pretty fabulous, too. The more incredible photos I see of cute puppies at …
You will likely come to notice that I adore most anything crafted from paper. I am a paper lover through and through and I always have been. As a kid I spent countless hours crafting for holidays and birthdays with long strips of colorful paper and I still love to get my craft on as …
Ok, friends, it’s confession time – I’ve never fully understood the craze over little felt birds serving as a cake topper. I just didn’t get it. However, after being tipped off on the colorful quirky creations of Lauren Alane by my lovely friend Carolynn of Two Brunettes, it’s all starting to make a bit more …
