Friday Lovin'
Happy Friday, friends! I've seen a lot of juicy, colorful, luxurious, and awe-inspiring pins up on Pinterest lately, so today I'm sharing my faves. All of the images can be found in my boards on my Pinterest account! #bestinventionever
Holy Fabulous Gallery Wall!
I'm helping one of my good friends redo her daughter's room and this is our inspiration! Butterflies galore:
Gobig bold or go home!
Soft, sweet & lots of pattern!
Favorite bouquet of all time, done by my talented friend Rhiannon!
Perfect Lighting!
~The ever-talented Rhi from Hey Gorgeous styled this amazing New Year's Inspiration shoot
~Christina at Carolina Charm created the most adorable DIY Headboard
~My sweet friend Katy at Twenty Three Oh One came up with the perfect solution for a small office space
~Anna from In Honor of Design is helping us make the most of each day by creating a great {free printable} To-Do List!
~Courtney from a Thoughtful Place showed us how just four new additions to a room can make a huge difference

That should do it (: Have a fabulous weekend! I'm off to a Young Life Retreat for the weekend, but hopefully I'll have a little {hint: furry} announcement to make next week! (:
What are your plans?

Light and bright {a favorite}
So you know how you love a photo of a room and you are a little surprised when you see the entire space, well I am sure you have seen this one before but I came across all of the photos together on pinterest and I am so in love with this space still!!! It is so dreamy!
It was featured in Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles back in 2007 and it is still one of my all time favorites so many years later.
Happy Saturday!!

Homemade Facial
Because of the direction of my blog, I've been thinking a lot lately. My blog isn't primarily a fashion blog, {and there are tons of amazing fashion blogs out there!} I think I'm going to start taking Fashion Friday in a new direction. I'll still be doing some outfit posts, but just not every Friday. Ya know, to keep you guessing (: I hope that's okay!
Today, I'm mixing it up. And I mean that quite literally.
I recently came across a recipe to make your own at home facial, so I gave it a whirl! Here's what you need:
1 Banana
1 tspn Honey
A pinch of lemon or lime
First, wash your face! I swear by dermalogica. This is their basic face wash:
Then, mix up your ingredients:
Next, apply the mask. This picture will remain small for obvious reasons! This is far past embarrassing, but how could I not post the picture of the end result?! It's definitely less terrifying in black and white. And don'tcha worry, the chunks are bananas...not skin issues!
I could only stand to leave my on for around 5-8 minutes because of the weird texture, but when I washed it off, let me tell ya...my face was as soft as a baby bootie.
I finished off my face with a moisturizer and this awesome spot treatment. It's a sulfur cream that you put on blemishes over night and it totally helps clear up the problem areas. Life saver!
So, that's how I spent my Thursday evening (: Give it a try!
Do you know any other at home facial recipes? Do tell!
Happy weekend, loves! What are you doing? I'm super excited to share a few things next week I've been working on lately.
Love,

Cape Cod Cottage
Yesterday I had my wisdom teeth consultation and it was enough to make me nauseous just sitting through it. I think I was pale. #badwithpain #wimp #terrified. If you follow me on Twitter, you know that right after that little fiasco I walked straight across the street to get my toes done. I felt much better after that, of course! So from now until Monday morning, when I go under the knife {mild exaggeration?}, I'm going to think positively.
I will be fine. Everyone gets this done some time or another. And everyone is fine. So I will be, too.
It's working already (:
So because of my rough afternoon/ I hung out with friends last night until way too late, I'm going to show you my absolute favorite kitchen right now. I can hardly contain myself. If I was building a home right now, I'd want a lot of these features included in my kitchen!
The fab little number sits inside this darling cottage:
Love the idea of concealing the fridge with the same cabinet appliqué on the appliances.
via
Favorite things about the space? The charcoal painted island, copper pots and pans displayed almost as art, crisp white cabinetry, pops of rich color {perfect colors for a kitchen, too!}, and the old fashion looking stove/oven. Seriously amazing.
Is this kitchen making you swoon, too?
Love,
PS. I'm off to hang out with Cristin, the talented blogger behind Simplified Bee. So thrilled she's allowing me to shadow her this summer! (:

Hall of Fame
Happy Monday! Thank you all so much for your kind words of encouragement last week when I felt overwhelmed. This week I'm refreshed, excited, and have some fun posts ready to go (: AND it's Easter on Sunday. I can hardly wait.
Today I'm sharing some of my very finds around blog land. All of these projects, rooms, and ladies continually inspire on a daily basis. That's the beauty of blogging. So many talented people who share a passion for the same thing as you. Let the show begin:

The accent table
I am completely loving the trend to have multiple styles and sizes of accent and side tables in one space..
They are perfect to move around and use as needed.
You can create a great layering effect with them also.
These are a few of my favorites that I use as often as possible!
I have designed a few to use in our new line of furniture too. So so fun!
