i can only imagine
good morning guys! i have about 30 seconds between googling princessess and making sticker books with my friend’s daughters. we’re about to have brunch and go house hunting so i just wanted slip in between a shower and getting them dressed. i can’t imagine how moms get anything done but i see they have one thing in common: they’re superheros who make magic and miracles and hope to take a gazillionth of one percent of the pressure off. well it’s my turn to push the baby swing, have a great sunday!
history is made at night
buona sera everyone, i hope your week is off to a great start and if you’re off this week, that you’re having a jolly good time!
i’ve had a little down time and have been trying to cram as much fun and rest into the days as work. but somehow they just seem to fly by no matter what they’re filled with!
i took tonight’s last hour to go through your comments from the weekend. thank you so much for the birthday wishes. the links in this posts are from friends who stopped by and left their url breadcrumbs :)
some are old and others are new. as always each and every one had something beautiful and special on their blog.
so now i’m kicking back with my dvr ready to watch the old film ‘history is made at night’. tomorrow is another day so i’ll leave that till morning,
in the meantime, have yourself a great nuit and if you get a chance to stop by these blogs and say hi i’m sure they’ll be happy to hear from you.

with all that’s out there to inspire, i get the most when i stop by chez vous! and it’s a bit of meditation too. a good way to recalibrate and get out of my own head. you may know some of these friends, others are new. hope you enjoy them as much as i did this morning!

flourishing friendships
it’s already getting late but i wanted to post what i’ve been thinking about all day. it’s getting to visit new and old blog friends who have left recent comments. thanks guys for helping me when i was having a formatting crisis, asking about my dad (he’s totally fine)! and just shouting back when i said hi.

ok back to work! have a great night!
pretty simple
hi guys, how’s everything? it’s been a couple busy days at mom and dad’s and the good news is that he’s coming home on thursday!
i can hardly keep up with mom who’s been doing everything from making pasta to taking doors down. she puts me to shame in the energy department. it’s all i can do to blog but did want to stop by and share some pretty pics from pinterest. the talent of these everyday photogs never ceases to amaze me.
i’m into super simple stuff right now, probably cause i’m on overload. these shots just reminded me that it doesn’t take much to make a big impact.
it’s almost midnight and we have to get up early to do a little training for when dad gets back. truth is he’ll do whatever the heck he wants but at least we’ll have some tricks up our sleeves for keeping him steady and stuff. believe it or not this sailor, archer and motorcyclist will be using a walker for awhile.
i hope your days are stress free and you’re enjoying some simple pleasures
i still haven’t done a thing and actually have been a bit stressed but am gonna take it down a notch.
worst case scenario i cut up a paper bag and trim gifts with greens from the holly bush
cause we all know what really matters…
well, i’m off to search for the greatest, sweetest simple pleasure…deep sleep! bonne nuit! xc

and the beat goes on
hey guys, how’s life? i’m back stateside and caught up on everything but work. then again, like surfing the net, it’ll never be finished. maybe i’ll scratch that off the to do list.
i’m winding down to watch my bravo ladies after a month without tv. before i go just wanted post a piece of paris that came in today from my new bff sophie at the market as our cross continental connection continues. she’s a lampshade lover like me and fell in love with the ones i picked up and posted last week. before i left ii showed her where they were stashed and can happily say they’ve fallen into the right hands. she’s an artist who’ll bring them back to life. the top shot is her fabulous creation with the shades in the box below and feather touches!
i bought two of the hot pink and she took the third. when she sent me her version this morning, i laughed at my new muse and it inspired me to do something with mine right away. i happened to have a light in the car so it was obvious serendipity, especially since it was a feather sconce!
and i’m loving them tonight! anyway it’s jolly good fun to have a pen pal who loves playing with with feathers and frills as much as i do. you too?
by the by, my coverage of the maison objet for lonny will post on their blog tomorrow and thursday. please go by and leave a comment if you get a chance, it would mean a lot to me.
have a great night!
making and breaking connections
hi guys! i’m in a bit of a rush because i’m trying to catch an airwave while waiting to board my flight to paris. since it’s intermittent i’ll hold off on a big post but wanted to share at least a little of the day before the connection breaks again.
i was thrilled to get the note from ellie somerville over at lonny mag that her apartment was being featured and she used my handles on one of her transformations. it’s the little things, right? if you’re a new yorker and have a tiny space, her apartment will get your juices flowing. she got pretty creative and it’s palatial for a petit place!
voilà! her ikea wardrobe is altered with the handles.
before i cut out i just want to shout out to my girl ariel who interned at lonny this year. before she left, she connected me with ellie and the gang to blog for them while i’m at the show. you never know who will be a liason! i’m excited and grateful, girls.
alors, more from the other side!
