They tried to make me go to rehab......

But I said NO NO NO! I did say YES YES YES to impersonating the terrifying (but talented) Amy Winehouse for Halloween. Happy Halloween to All!!

CB2 for Me & You

I just got my CB2 holiday catalog in the mail and was completely blown away. There are so many yummy little treats in here- and the prices are really amazing. I am already in love with Crate & Barrel, and now just as enamored with its baby sister CB2. And their room styling is truly inspiring. Check out a few of my favorite pics....Enjoy!

This would be so adorable as a bedside lamp. Just add a mosquito net over the bed to turn your bedroom into a comfy campsite.
Super hero plates bring the Wonder Woman vibe to any girl's kitchen.
Marimekko Prints for pennies!
So clean & modern- It would add a great pop of color in my kitchen.
Goregous- mix with plain balck and white dinnerware to make the orange really pop.

She cracks me up!

Needlepoint- Not just for grannies anymore!

That's right ladies- its not just for Grannies anymore. My friend Heather (she's a super crafter)was telling me of her love for needlepoint at craft night last night and was totally surprised by all of the gorgeous designs out there! Guess what I'll be doing while Geoff watches endless amounts of football....

Jonathan Adler is so smart- damn him and his creativity!! Aren't these pillows so funny?! Like the Anti-Needlepoint.

I love the needlepoint Animal print- like rocker grandma! Available from Jayson Home and Garden.

So in love with these stitch-able journals from AMH Design. Beautiful!
