A Little List

I have been feeling a little overwhelmed with inspiration! Is that even possible? I just see things that are beautiful and I want to bring those ideas, projects or designs into my life. I want to learn how to do more crafts and projects! I am working on a goals list for 2010 and the hard part is narrowing it down to something that is doable. Here are a few things that I really like right now. And I am sure a few will show up on my list!

I love this. It's subtle, wintery and I want to out on the town (while snowing) and then come home and cuddle with my love! (via Creature Comforts)

Ahhhhh...a romantic bedroom (and exposed brick to boot!) (via Belle Maison)

I love this dress, this wedding, this photographer and this photograph!
(visit Sheena Jibson Photography)

I really like tights. I just don't feel like I can pull off outfits with tights! 2010 goal maybe?

January is the perfect month for layering! I love layered looks!

I will work on my list and share as soon as it is complete! I can feel 2010 being a good year!
I just know it!
love, Emma

Dream Come True on a Budget!

Hello Everyone! I wasn't sure what would bring me back and make me want to post but I saw this adorable cottage (via Darling Dexter) and had to share. Due to outrageously priced real estate in New York City this couple bought their first home in Sparrow Bush, NY. They spent time renovating and bargain shopping on craigslist and the result is just a dream! Check out that sunroom. It was a garage and was then renovated with salavaged windows and doors! Read more details here!
P.s. i have some pretty fun news to share when I get a minute! I'm excited!
Love, Emma
