Hazel's Nursery


We welcomed little Hazel into the world in January and I wanted to share a peek inside her nursery. As soon as I found out I was having another girl my mind starting automatically brainstorming what I wanted her room to look like. I'm excited to share the finished product with you below.



Since Harper was no longer sleeping in her crib I was able to pass that down to Hazel, as well as her rocker and changing table. They're all white so I pretty much had a blank canvas to work with. I found this rug at anthropologie and knew right away that I wanted that to be the focal point of the room. Ironically I found this turkish throw pillow on etsy that just happen to be a perfect match to the rug! I worked the rest of the colors of the room around the rug; pops of fuchsia, coral and accents of gold.


Most of the little trinkets and personalized decor I found on etsy.com 
The adorable moccasins are by freshly picked and were a gift from a good friend.


The bed sheet is from aden and anais and the bed skirt is from Restoration Hardware Baby
The silver star and gold heart throw pillows are also from Restoration Hardware Baby.

The cloud with hearts mobile is by Baby Jives Co.


I had this framed baby lamb print over the crib when it was in Harper's room. I loved it so much I ordered four more baby animal prints from The Animal Print Shop that I hung over the rocking chair.




These gold and white book shelves were exactly what I was looking for to display family pictures, books and other trinkets. I found them at the land of nod


This gold sunburst mirror that sits over the changing table is also from anthropologie. 

We painted the wall Benjamin Moore Pale Almond. It's the perfect neutral shade to compliment the rest of the room.

Harper's 3rd Birthday


My daughter Harper turned 3 in November. 
She loves all arts and crafts so we decided to do an "Art Studio" theme. I was a little nervous that the arts and crafts wouldn't hold the attention of 30 three year olds but it ended up working out perfectly.  Everyone not only had a blast but got to take home their own painted canvas. 

I purchased individual canvas's for each kid at Michael's to decorate with washable paint, glitter pens and foam letter stickers. So the parent's wouldn't totally kill me for their kids making a mess I got each kid their own smock to wear while painting.

I wrapped a smock around each canvas and a little custom tag that read "Paint, Glitter & Stickers too, Create your own canvas to bring home with you".

In addition to the canvas painting I set up a table with play doh and play doh accessories. This happened to be a huge hit!

I also got a bunch of boxes of noodles and died them the colors of the rainbow. Each kid made a "noodle necklace" to take home with them as well.

To tie in with the "Painting" theme I hired Maria Rocco to do face painting. She did an amazing job. Each kid left looking like a princess or super hero.

 For dessert we had a paint palette birthday cake, paintbrush pretzels, mini rainbow cupcakes and paint dipped strawberries. All of them home made.

As a give out I ordered a water color paint set for each kid and wrapped it with a paint palette lollipop and custom tag that said "Thank you for making my birthday a masterpiece".

The party was a huge hit! Harper had a blast and we now have enough paint supplies to get us through a very long winter ahead!

Friday I'm in Love


I'm always keeping an eye out for cute & unique clothing for Harper. I came across mamacase prints on etsy.com.
Kacie is based out of Austin, TX, where all of her items are designed and printed in her home studio.
All her materials - shirts, screens and ink are made in the USA.

It was hard choosing which Tee to order as they are all so adorable. 
Ultimately I choose the "Friday I'm in Love" tee. I mean really, does it get any cuter?
It's super soft and comfy - I will definitely be ordering more! 
I think "oh grow up" may need to be my next purchase.
Tees are $22 and onsies are $20.

Winter ONEderland

Yesterday was my friend's son's 1st Birthday Party. 
The theme was Winter ONEderland. How cute and apropos considering this frigid weather we've been having. She did such a cute job with all of the little details.
The lunch was right out of a ski lodge.  She served mac & cheese, chicken pot pie and chili, and had a hot chocolate station and an array of wintry sweets for dessert.
To add to the sweet smorgasbord I made s'mores cupcakes. 
They were adorable and delicious!

recipe below.

What you'll need:
24 cupcakes
Frosting
Box of honey flavored Teddy Grams
Bag of large marshmallows
Hershey chocolate bar, broken up

Directions:
Make 24 cupcakes, chocolate or vanilla. I used vanilla.
Frost cupcakes.

Heat oven to 350 degrees.
On a baking tray roast large marshmallows for about 5 minutes, until they get a little golden.
As soon as they come out put on top of each cupcake.
Squeeze in a little teddy gram in the marshmallow. I thought it was cute to use Teddy Grams since it was a 1st Birthday but  you can most certainly use regular gram crackers and break them into smaller pieces.
Put one piece of Hershey's chocolate behind the marshmallow.
Try to make as close to eating time as you can, they marshmallows tend to harden up as time goes on.

I got the adorable red tartan plaid baking liners on etsy.com
They went perfect with the theme!

Harper's Room!


I finally got around to snapping some shots of Harper's Bedroom to share.
I loved decorating her room. I mean what could be more fun then a girly little girls room?
 My favorite part is the butterfly orb that hangs over her crib. I found it on etsy before she was even born. It was the first thing I purchased for her room and worked the room around it. 
Everything in her room comes from different places (resources below). I did my research trying to find sites with more reasonable prices. For example, I knew I wanted a leather pouf as an ottoman for her rocker but couldn't justify spending $450 at Serena & Lilly. I found basically the same exact one on amazon for half the price. The website 20x200 has great affordable art. I found the adorable baby lamb print on there and brought it to a local shop to get it framed.

What do you think? Do you want to climb into her crib for a siesta?

Playroom!


Room by room our house is starting to come together. 
My focus the past few weeks has been the playroom since this is where Harper likes to spend most of her time, especially when friends come over. 
There are still a few odds and ends that need to be done before it's totally complete but it's turning into a perfect place for Harper to play and "create".

What do you think so far?
