I’m a sucker for a great printed fabric. I scour the stores and the online shops to find new and unique designs to squirrel away for the right time and the right project. Pretty Little Prints has an enviable selection from which to covet. I’m partial to the Elefete elephant print from Cloud 9. Now I just have to think of a project to use it for.
Stop by Pretty Little Prints on etsy to peek at the growing collection and pick something up for your current labor of love or another day.
Ahhh! These are so damn cute, I could just scream with delight. If I had a child, they would totally have one, two, three, or more of these adorable handmade owl plushies from Haley by Hand. Super cool and totally unique. Each owl has their own personality.

Three cheers for Workspace Wednesday. I’ve been slacking on workspace inspirations lately, but hey..I’m back up to speed now.
I’ve previously shared lots of clean, modern office and studio spaces, that are mostly white. But this week, I wanted to share a workspace that I found on House to Home that is both sleek + modern AND colorful + cheerful. No “cold” feeling here!
What do you think? Love or hate this different take on a modern workspace?

Today, I’ve asked Becky Klass of the blog B-Real…Happy to share her wardrobe/hutch makeover with us. I actually found Becky’s blog through one of the comments she left here on the blog. And when I saw how she transformed this piece of furniture, I just knew I had to have her drop by and share it with you. So…
The following is a guest post by Becky Klaas of B-Real…Happy.
I found this beauty in an old home downtown. She was sitting there waiting for someone to come along and give her a fresh, much needed new image. She was in pretty bad shape and needed a lot of tlc. But I was up for the challenge.
She has made herself at home in my bedroom. I have purple walls with little light in my bedroom so I wasnt able to get a good picture. I had to take the picture in a different room. The purple contrasts beautifully with the white, grey and the little surprise of peach.
I didnt repair everything on the wardrobe. I wanted a bit of her past to shine through. So, I left the top corner curled up and some of the existing teal that was not removed faintly shows through in a place or two. I added new door hardware and a damask grey wall covering. The damask pattern is made with animal silhouettes….the main reason why I fell in love it.
About Becky: Becky runs the blog, B-Real…Happy. She describes it as a place for her to explore, create, dream, live, become, love, inspire and be inspired. How sweet is that? Visit Becky’s blog now for more inspiration.
