urban electric

it's no secret that i have a love for urban electric....it's hard not to when the produce such fabulous lighting and are located in charleston!  sooo....have y'all seen amanda nisbet's collection??  how great is it...and yes, the lamp shades are for sale!

happy monday

i think i could crawl into these images and be super happy!!  speaking of being happy, i had such a wonderful time going back to charleston this weekend.  being at my old target and going to my old grocery store put a smile on my face.  and getting to see my charleston friends was an added bonus :)
hope you have a wonderful start to your week....

two happy things.

i was super excited to receive this in the mail yesterday- a master bathroom i designed for a house on sullivan's island and BHG Kitchen and Bath published her.  i would be a very happy camper living in that tub...i am sure my clients would think that was a little weird though.

the other thing that makes me giddy is taylor's headboard.  we did actually make it this weekend....here's a sneak peek.  happy hump day!!

i think that this letterpress poster from sycamore street press is about as cute as they come and something my household can relate to....

happy halloween!

wow, is it halloween already??!  my poor pumpkins haven't had a thing done to them...i had hopes of making them look like these charlie brown ones.  taylor decided they needed stickers, i decided one needed a mask...tonight, i am getting out the black paint...i mean it's time, they look pitiful!

i did put out some decorations...well, i bought a mum and i found the box w/ our halloween stuff....

before i decorate, i have to take advantage of my dad being here.....finally i'm doing something to poor taylor's room and making this headboard.  it's taken long enough!

halloween weekend is always a lot of fun....both sets of grandparents come to see the kids trick or treat...we eat a lot, have a beverage or two, and play games (have you played apples to apples- fun stuff...especially if you have a beverage or two)...this is what's we are having tomorrow night: oysters and ina's coconut cake but we are making them into cupcakes.

sunday night we are trick or treating....taylor's going as a garden fairy...we practiced yesterday by trick or treating downtown.

walker didn't practice but he is going as a skeleton that glows in the dark like the bad boys on karate kid....classy i know :)

and that pretty much sums up how we are going to spend our halloween....i hope y'all have a fabulous weekend and that you get lots of yummy candy (i like to "share" taylor's reese cups and anything that is sour and gummy)!!  see you next week!

i am having a hard time focusing today....maybe b/c my baby is 4 months old and still doesn't sleep through the night or b/c taylor hopped in the bed w/ us at 4:00 this morning and thought it was time to get up or b/c my parents are in town and i would rather go and hangout w/ them :)

so i thought maybe some pretty pictures would work for a post or if you want a little more, go check out south of market's blog, they did a little Q & A w/ me (you should totally check out it out regardless....it rocks....as does their store if you haven't been to one!!)
