As if last week’s tablscape photoshoot wasn’t evidence enough, clearly my love for doilies knows no bounds. I adore these prints from Ashley G. and Drew, available in four colors, based on the classic heart-shaped paper doily. I think these would be such a sweet Valentine’s Day gift idea for your mom, your sister or …

I loved reading the guest posts from the ladies of BBB on design*sponge last week and in particular, I loved their ideas for great edible gift ideas, which would make perfect favor ideas for your upcoming wedding, shower or party. From honey and granola to perfectly packaged tea, the ideas are simple, thoughtful and heartwarming. …
In my Monday evening travels, I discovered Forty-sixth at Grace, a blog that is a virtual treasure trove of beautiful images and delightful inspiration. (You’ve probably seen these darling shortbread button cookies making their way around the blog circles in recent days.) Yesterday, Nikole posted about, of all things, icing cakes and meeting boys and …
I love the idea of giving a personalized hand stamped copper guitar pick to your musically-inclined groom on your wedding day or even as a sweet token of affection for Valentine’s Day. Each pick is hand cut, hand stamped, filed, sanded and lightly polished to achieve the beautiful finish and can be customized with song …
We’ll be gathering together with a group of our closest friends for a little combination belated Christmas/very merry New Year’s celebration this evening. I had been planning to litter the island in our kitchen with my collection of vintage milk glass and the many whiteware cake stands and footed compote bowls we received as wedding …
With everyone packing up and heading out for the holidays today, I wanted to keep it simple and share with you a few photos from one of the holiday posts on Habitually Chic that I most loved from last holiday season. I find all of the pretty silver, ivory and green details so fresh and …
This week has been so cold here in Upstate NY, so festive. For me it’s all about drinking lots of holiday spice tea and finding time to hit the gym often enough to offset all of the cookies I can’t seem to stop eating. As the blog world quiets down and the week starts to …
As a whole, I find Elizabeth Messina immensely inspiring. Every post on her blog, Kiss the Groom, is incredibly thoughtful and poetic in both words and imagery. I loved these cute gingerbread cookie ornaments she shared, the perfect little project for a warm evening at home this week before the holiday is upon us. {Photos …
Good morning, friends! This week for me is going to be all about taking a few moments to slow down, reflect on the year just passed and the one to come, and sharing with you little bits of holiday inspiration I’ve been gleefully stumbling upon in recent weeks. I thought this morning I’d share a …
There have been so many great winter-inspired tablescape ideas popping up lately, it’s hard to pick a favorite so I decided instead to just share all of those I’m loving at the moment. From the traditional to the unexpected, I find all of these ideas incredibly inspiring for the holidays and throughout the winter. {Photos …
I love reading The Indigo Bunting and checking out all of Erin Jang’s many creative projects and designs. Erin’s work always feels incredibly fresh and inspired to me, completely unique and entirely her own. It’s a touch quirky and always fun, characteristics I rather love. This latest little project is too thoughtful for words, a …
I have been a fan of the darling creations of Paloma’s Nest for longer than I can remember. Each piece is lovingly crafted by owner/designer Caroline Colom Vasquez and each piece is a true work of art, shining with personality and heart. With the holidays swiftly approaching, I love the idea of gifting your loved …
