I AM COMPLETELY OBSESSED WITH THESE TILES FROM EMERY ET CIE! I HAVE ORDERED A SAMPLE OF SOME COLORS TO SEE IN PERSON BUT THESE ARE MY TWO FAVORITES! WE ARE HOPING TO USE IT FOR AN 18" BACKSPLASH IN THE KITCHEN.

ALL IMAGES FROM EMERY ET CIE .

Scarves

I JUST TOOK THIS PICTURE IN OUR BACKYARD OF SOME BEAUTIFUL SCARVES I GOT IN TOKYO! HURRAY FOR SUNSHINE AT LAST! I WAS INSPIRED BY THE NEW COVER OF THE DESIGN FOR MANKIND MAGAZINE.

I THINK THE BEDROOM AND THE SEA HOLLY HAVE A VERY SIMILAR COLOR SCHEME. NO WONDER I LOVE IT!

Flower Seeds

I BOUGHT THESE SEEDS THE OTHER DAY AND AM ALREADY GETTING LOTS OF IDEAS FOR THE GARDEN. I HAVE A BUNCH OF DAYS OFF NEXT WEEK SO I THINK I AM GOING TO START SOME SERIOUS GARDEN IMPROVEMENT THEN. I WILL BE SURE TO PUT UP SOME BEFORE AND DURINGS. IT IS DEFINITELY GOING TO BE AWHILE BEFORE THERE IS A GOOD BEFORE/AFTER. THE SEA HOLLY IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE SO FAR!

QUICK WATERCOLOR

THIS IS A LITTLE FAMOUS HOUSE ON THE BLOCK OVER FROM US. THERE IS A LITTLE OLDER LADY THAT LIVES HERE AND SHE HAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GARDEN! I CAN'T WAIT TO FIX UP OUR GARDEN, IT IS QUITE A MESS!

CHECK OUT THESE CUTIES!  THEY ARE BUDDIES...

SO HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF THE NEW BERKELEY BOWL THAT IS GOING UP ABOUT 4 BLOCKS FROM OUR HOUSE! WE ARE SO EXCITED TO BE ABLE TO WALK THERE AT ANYTIME! IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS GOING TO BE GORGEOUS WITH AN ENORMOUS PRODUCE SECTION.
