Over at Yellow Brick Home, I fell in love with the liquid gold leaf treatment they gave their dog bust. I knew it was something I definitely wanted to try. I decided to use the same Plaid Liquid Leaf that they recommended. The next decision was what to paint. A few years ago I found [...]
I love this new commercial from Lowe’s. So fun.

Loving these hand-drawn Star Wars posters by Christopher Lee. He captures the key characters and scenes from each film in charming illustration. While Return of the Jedi is my favorite of the three, I think the original film’s poster is my favorite. And at only $35 each, it won’t break the bank to order all [...]
Love these Battlestar Galactica propaganda posters from Think Geek. Totally getting ‘em.

As often as I can, I like to browse home decor magazines and blogs for inspiration and stress relief. I love to see what new home trends will pop up and how I can incorporate fun and interesting ideas into our little Chandler house. As blog commenters will no doubt tell you, many home trends [...]
After a quick five weeks, I’m giddy to cross of another item on my 26 before 26 list: #13: Replace master bathroom shower. Whoever put in the original shower in our house must hate all things good. They did everything wrong and chose the cheapest methods and hardware possible. The first thing I wanted to [...]
