Over the past few days I’ve gotten a bunch of emails asking about this custom print hanging in Dee’s room from Hoot Design Co. I don’t blame you – I love it too. So guess what? Kristen, the lovely and talented designer behind Hoot has decided to give away one of her sweet Simply Baby Prints to one lucky reader… Read more →

Holy crap this is cool.
So you’re looking at [estonian designer Pavel Sidorenko’s] Smart Kid Conversion Kit, and you’re probably thinking “well, that’s pretty.” And it is. But it’s so much more than that. Is your mind blown? Hold on. This might be my favorite variation. I’ve been trying to get Scott to build almost this exact thing (sans chalkboard back, which is pretty brilliant… Read more →
Finally. Something to Obsess About.
Dee’s first birthday is less than three months away and I’m starting to contemplate what I’d like to do to celebrate. I guess I should probably consult Scott at some point, since she’s 50% his to shower with love and affection {Shanny, if you’re reading this, let’s talk about that, okay?} but I promised Eva that she could select the… Read more →
Like Crack for Design Enthusiasts.
That is approximately 1/3 of the pile of crap I brought home from Dwell on Design to sort through and eventually, in some form or another, write about. The LA Convention Center is BIG (and NOT easy to navigate) and the eye candy was plentiful. Designers and creators were on hand to chat at almost every booth, and as an… Read more →
Meanwhile, elsewhere on the internet…

If you’re a lover of art, or fashion, or music, or design…this place is for you. My new home away from home, the Cargoh Culture blog is an eclectic mix of the current, the… Read more →
RipeGoods are Delicious
I can’t believe it’s effing May. It seems so recent that Scott and I were anxiously awaiting our 20 week ultrasound wondering if our little Danger Baby (as we often called Dee in utero) would turn out to be a boy or a girl. And yet here we are and a whole year has gone by. My sweet Dee is… Read more →
Sunshine and Rose Bowls
On Sunday we had a lovely stroll through the Flea Market with Randi and Adam. We mostly window [tent] shopped, but I did score this beauty for my vertical garden project: (Until we’re ready for it in the yard, we’re letting it live out it’s final days as a room divider and Dee is enjoying the patterns it makes on… Read more →
Not-So-Easy Chair
Remember when I said that Scott was going to reupholster our Plycraft Lounger himself? I bet you guys thought I was lying because then I never showed you the finished product. But we did actually do it! (Again WE in these situations is Scott, although I held the staples.) A little back story: Grandpa Barry (Delilah’s Grandpa, not our… Read more →
Succulent Green
The arrival of this CB2 Catalog on my doorstep reminds me of two things: 1. Summer is coming. (I’d be more excited if I didn’t still look pregnant in my ass.) 2. Our Backyard is…in even worse shape than it was when I whined about what bad shape it was in last summer. But last summer, we neglected our yard… Read more →
Twitter is Magic
At the risk of looking like some kind of weird DwellStudio junkie by posting about them twice in one week…So, you know how I am like totally a junkie for DwellStudio? Well…lately, Crib Bumpers have been a big topic of discussion in this household. It’s a bit of a hot-button topic in the whole e-mom community actually, (to use, to… Read more →
