Hope you’re feeling the love the holiday season. Aren’t these L.O.V.E. pears adorable?! Made by the etsy artists La Pomme. We leave tomorrow for Arizona where we will be spending Christmas with my family.  Hopefully time away will help us come back re-energized to find a home!!!

Oh Lady Gaga, such an interesting character. In honor of the Met’s production of Hansel and Gretel, Vogue did a beautiful spread to which includes designers like Dolce & Gabbana, Dior, and Nicolas Ghesquière. It’s absolutely beautiful. Notice Lady Gaga’s debut as the witch in the fire.

We are alive and well in San Francisco…and have started the hunt for a place. Heaven help us.  We both want complete opposite living spaces, we’ll see if we can ever find something that can make the both of us happy.  On our search I’ve run across a lot of different kitchens.  Some are designed well; with function and design in mind…others not so much.  Looking at one place I could imagine myself being a good little wife and cooking well thought out dinners, and fresh lemon meringue pie from the lemon tree in the back yard.  Another kitchen was not so well thought out.  The finishes were nice and up to date, however the layout wasn’t so good.  I could imagine ordering pizza and sitting in front of the TV.  Speaking of kitchens, once one of my kitchen remodels is done I will post pics…I just need to get on those contractors.  Well, here are some beautiful kitchens for your enjoyment.

It has really felt like Christmas for me lately.  With finishing design projects, taking care of moving business, and actually moving to SF and finding a place… all before Christmas; my mind has been elsewhere.  However, with yesterday’s first snow fall in the morning; and ending my day with some inspiring Christmas words; I’m starting to feel the Christmas spirit. How fun are these adorable little pom-poms to wrap gifts with? I love the simplicity and charm.  Tutorial found here.

I have watched this video five times now.  I don’t know why I think it’s so funny.  Enjoy!

I was really looking forward to what would be said at the end when the angel hugged her…and it didn’t disappoint. :)
