End of November...


We had a great Thanksgiving, and we have so much to be thankful for.

Family, food, good friends and let's not forget health.

I was finally able to post a new print to our Etsy shop. It's called "Bookish Type", which is a play on words because it is a custom monogram.

I hope it makes someone smile.

Design on a Budget


Last year they opened up Ikea here in South Florida. It opened in Sunrise, which is about 40 minutes north of Miami.
I've been waiting for this store for about 10 years. I know it doesn't have the best reputation for quality, but the price surely can't be beat.
Recently we took the drive up and made a day of it.
We bought a truckload of furniture, from a desk to a bunk bed and mattress, shelves and bedding--all for under $800.
It hasn't been long, but the furniture in the boys' room seems to be holding up thus far--which is remarkable considering Jude.

Let's Fall in Love


Why shouldn't we?

Just added this print the other day to our etsy store. I'm in the process of moving our blog over onto blogger and catching up with the posts!

Due North...













I was going through our NY pictures and thought I'd post one.
We really love that place.

Jimmy went to Pratt, the art school in Brooklyn, so he really knows his way around the city.

I'm a Miami girl and my blood is too thin for the north. Here it never gets colder than the mid 30's and that's for one day, every other year.

Still, New York is a remarkable place to visit and find inspiration.
