love this Alexander Girard/House Industries nativity set
totally out of my price range, but great nonetheless. Available for $420 through Heath.
This dress would not look good on me, but I love it nonetheless. Someone else please buy and wear the hell out of it this holiday season:
Limited Edition Women’s Belted Lady Dress in Plum Houndstooth $39.99 from Target
I’m totally digging this light-up black-ocean globe:
although I’d paint the base bright pink. Really, how hot would that be?
picked this up on etsy early last week (my first etsy purchase in almost a year!) It arrived super quick and is already hanging in my bedroom
my favorite newly discoverd blog: The Brick House
I’m especially digging her new guest bedroom (apparently bedrooms are on the mind these days)
part of re-vamping my bedroom was putting a desk back in there (I haven’t had a desk in the bedroom for years.) I ended up pulling a long-ignored table out of my over-full basement to use as a desk, but the basement, while home to many things, was unfortunately desk-lamp free. This one was *way* out of my price range, but isn’t it beautiful?
Lampe Gras – No. 205, $644 from Brook Farm General Store
Shots of what I ended up with at some point in the future . . .
Love these. They would look great framed our leaning on top of a door frame
Cursive Handwriting Classroom Charts (Black) $25.00 from Three Potato Four
I’m still alive, really. Just in the middle of about a million projects all the time. But I’m working on getting my schedule more organized which will *hopefully* include carving out time to come back to this space more. For now, some hastily taken before and after shots of what will be the new bedside tables in my in-progress totally overhauled bedroom

I got a great deal on these (this is one of a set of two) at my local second-hand furniture shop last weekend – I loved the shape, but the paint job was a little too, um, whimsical for me. Spray paint to the rescue. All the drawers got a new coat of gloss white (I’m partial to Rust-oleum Painter’s Touch – it has the easiest ever to use nozzle and dries quickly and evenly) and the hardware got several coats of gloss black enamel. I love how they turned out, and I’ll now have an excess of storage in the bedroom, which is pretty much a dream come true.
Pictures of the entire room hopefully coming in the next few weeks – I need to get a handyman/plumber over to remove the non-working but very large radiator before I can finalize furniture placement.
This post from Say Yes to Hoboken reminded me that I hadn’t posted pictures of my redone dining room, specifically this arrangement on top of my sideboard:
I bought the flashcards on etsy a few years ago (from a now defunct shop,) and just framed them a few months ago. Pictures of the rest of the room coming one of these days . . .
