My brother opened his long-awaited Etsy shop: SaveTheFarm.etsy.com. He has made these BEAUTIFUL dresses that are one-size fits all, and one-dress-fits-all-occasion. Everyone that I’ve seen this dress on looks amazing because there are so many ways to wear the dress.
These are all the SAME DRESS.
There are infinite ways to wear this dress, and you can [...]

From this {nubby friend of a sweater}:
To This {comfy neck scarf & sleepy morning face}:
Inspired by anything and everything that Lex makes…
And on a sidenote:
I’ve always thought it was my hair that sucked. I had an epiphany: it’s my flat iron! How have I gone my whole adult life with a $15 flat iron? When [...]

I know, it took everything I had not to do an “April Showers” theme… had I known the weather we’d be having, it would have been perfect!
The party was this weekend, and we had a fun time. We have a great room at my complex that I rent out often. It’s free to use, and [...]

This is officially the last amount of fabric I trucked back from Portland. On clearance, with an extra miracle 40% off coupon, I think this fabric was somewhere around $5/yard.

NVM, don’t answer that… {10 weeks to go!}
I finally decided on a stroller this weekend. That was about as painless as a good body waxing. I could never find any ONE stroller that did all the things that I wanted it to. And to clarify, I am only GUESSING as to what I’m going to [...]

I bought this Michael Miller fabric in Portland, because I couldn’t leave it at the store. I was going to make laminated placemats, but I love my new laminated tablecloth so much, I may never take it off! Thinking…

I’m hosting my friend April’s baby shower next weekend, and although I’m dying to share the details as we plan them, I don’t want to spoil it! :)
Here are the invitations I made and sent out a few weeks ago… designed in photoshop, printed one side on heavy paper and the other on a shiny [...]
