Arrgh, Mateys! {Pirate Birthday}

So, I was recently asked to design cupcake toppers, water bottle labels, thank you party tags, and invitations for a birthday party.  Winn just turned 4 and he has been obsessed with pirates for a couple of years now.  It was so fun to design! Having a little girl, I don't get much time in anything boy, so thanks for the opportunity, and Happy Birthday, Winn!

A Chevron Valentine's Day {Party Theme}

{TGIM} Removable Wallpaper

Happy wintry Monday, everyone! It's time for this week's truly great idea...

Removable wallpaper! Yep. I said it. It is also know as "renter's wallpaper." Apparently, you can take it off either when you move, or when you are tired of it and don't want the hassle of regular, peel-off-pieces-at-a-time wallpaper.  Once removed you run a damp cloth or sponge over the wall and voila, no painting necessary! The only downside is that it is apparently time consuming and requires patience. But seriously, I would definitely do it! If you know it is something you want to have for awhile, or are renting an apartment or house for quite awhile, I say go for it! Look at this amazing pattern featured below! Pictures came from Jordan at Oh Happy Day blog.

Removable wallpaper can be found at Sherwin Williams. Pattern shown is pattern #SW8EG5315

So, what do you think? Are you up for trying it?

Happy Papering!!

February Color Scheme: Pink & Gray

When we think of the month of February, we naturally think of Valentine's Day. We think of love, reds, pinks, whites, and roses.  For my February color scheme of the month I am going with our favorite cousin to red,: PINK! Paired with a perfect new twist: GRAY! Grays and Pinks scream modern, sweet, sophistication. Find inspiration for your next bedroom, baby nursery, or even kitchen!

Cute bathroom!! (Especially for two sisters that share?)

Classic.  Feminine. Timeless. So pretty!

A bolder take

I love pink. 

Here, we see pink and gray used in a modern way.

And here, we see it used in a more traditional, classic way.

I love the flowers floating in water in the glass containers.

Cute and girly. Pink and gray for a birthday party!

Pink can be elegant, too.

Love the pink and gray scheme for this spring wedding! Don't the men look handsome in their pink ties?!

So, there isn't much gray in this photo, but if you are feeling bolder, this could be for you! You can replace the black knobs and countertop and barstools for stainless steel options. 

Inspiration is everywhere! Create. Design. Inspire.
