random musings monday.

We got back from a delightful weekend spending time with best friends in Houston... it consisted of some golfing for the men, manis/pedis & time with celeb mags & guac by the pool for the ladies & lots yummy food. Not only did our gracious host make us delicious treats, but we also indulged in mimosas & breakfast at Tiny Boxwoods. { so cute & delish.} It was a much needed weekend away & time with these individuals never disappoints & always hit the spot.

I'm still in my purging & organizing state... once you start, you really cannot stop. These images above only fueled the fire... I am on a mission to get rid of the clutter & that which I absolutely do not love. Ry & I are not sentimental "savers," but "repourposing savers." If I think I can remake something out of it or reuse it one day down the road, I'll keep it. Why DIY a piece, when you never loved the shape, concept, etc to begin with? I'm working on it people. {images via lgn.}

I have a sick, mad, obsession with all things Elizabeth & James... I tend to gravitate towards almost every piece, wherever I go. This is a problem... I really must expand from my love for neutrals. Their Fall 2011 is to. die. for.

A few new posts up at MF Creative Designs.... plus a new logo for my little side venture.

I have the goods... I just need to make them. P-Dub's Crash Hot Potatoes look absolutely divine and are on the menu for this week. You really can't go wrong with anything Rosemary... (esp when it grows in massive bushes in your backyard. I can't keep up.)

I can't believe I haven't blogged about these little gems, yet... I took this pic before I hung these beautiful pieces & was waiting to take an after shot of them in our home, however, I am a procrastinator & didn't want to wait holding out on sharing her work anymore. Casey & I traded for Aiden's Party & I definitely ended up on the winning side of that deal. She is a sweet mama & talented artist & I was incredibly honored she would even ask me to help.... it was a great excuse to catch up, too. Go check out her stuff... you'll love it.

And finally, I'll end with this unbelievable picture of Rachel McAdams. Dang, I love old Hollywood glamor. {image source unknown}

Happy Windy, Blustery Monday.
