Real Life Pinterest: Kitchen Inspiration

I am almost finished with our mini kitchen redecorating, as I've mentioned in the past, with this apartment I am taking my sweet time to make sure everything is perfect. Most of my inspiration is from fellow bloggers who share house tours, but most of my ideas have come from the all mighty Pinterest.

I am finishing up hanging things this week, and then i will give the full grand tour of my little kitchen. We have been out of town every weekend in June, so I am looking forward to finishing all my half done projects.

Cheers,

Textile Tuesday: Jane Foster

Today's textile Tuesday has been a long favorite of mine, we both share a passion for mid century Scandinavian textiles, and anything that is bright and bold.  Jane Foster is a screen printer who has been making her own designs for many years.  She lives in Totnes Devon where she creates cheerful softe toys and fabrics.

Here are my Jane Foster favorites:

You can purchase Jane Foster goods in two place:

Your My Boy Blue!

Well,well, well what a past couple of weeks it has been around this joint.  Last week we laid to rest our tried and true 98' blue VW beetle, Hans was his name and he was such a great little car.  I normally dont get too attached to things but, this car was my dream car. Hans started to become ill last summer, his AC blew out and he needed a new radiator. We tried having the AC fixed several times, but nothing would work so about $800 later we gave up on that problem. Then about a week and a half about Hans  started making a grinding sound and his clutch gave out...then he wouldn't start back up. He was a goner, my little blue dream bug had bit the dust.




So, now that all has be restored back to normal, time to get back on the blogging bandwagon. Have I mentioned we've been out of town every weekend in June? Yeah, we've been living out of suitcases, but at least we got a new car!

Cheers,
Deb

Made By Wolf For Wolf

Once again, Miss Alix from Modern Kiddo has introduced me to another wonderful company.  Made by Wolf , is a hipster parents dream for clothing to outfit your littles in. Their tees have unique graphics on it,designed by several different artists. For my little Wolf I chose king bling and circus artist, its so hard to find funky boys clothing in yellow so it was an easy choice for me.

This guy loves wearing bright colors.
