Weekend Links {6th Edition}

And the links for the week are. . .









































Happy Weekend


I seriously can't believe that Memorial day is just around the corner. We will be vacationing south for the holiday in Hilton Head, South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia for a few days. I am trying to convince the hubby to also make a short stop to Charleston on our way back. I love Charleston and it could possibly be my favorite city in the states. Changing gears, have I told you my fascination with white. If you look at my closet, you will see about a quarter of it is composed of white tees and blouses. I could totally see myself wearing this all-white ensemble for cocktails in Sea Pines in Hilton Head. The only problem is that I don't have white heels and these wedges would be a fun alternative.

The Summer Tote {High / Low}

This morning I was catching up on some of my favorite blogs when I came upon this picture. I immediately thought the tote in the picture was the one recently spotted at Target. To my surprise, it wasn't, but don't they look so similar?

An e-Design Project Completed

It feels so good to have completed my first e-Design project. My client needed help in her family room. She was having problems decorating the space because of the ackward layout of the room. Based on her requests and needs, here's how her family room design looks.




Around Here

It's been a busy spring! Projects, both indoors and outdoors, have taken our time. Here are a few things happening around here.

My new favorite spot in the house. I love all the natural light. It would be the perfect
spot to read a book if only there were more hours in the day.

Elderflower Mojitos

I found my new summer cocktail! These are so simple to make and require just four ingredients. They are refreshing, and perfect for a summer night or after a full day of gardening. I can't wait to entertain in our patio with a pitcher of these.

Keep on reading to get the recipe.

Monday Must-Haves

Happy Monday! As I shared with you yesterday via instagram, the hubby gifted me a certificate to J.Crew for Mother's day. And he knows that I always have some things on my wish list from one of my favorite stores.


Mom Knows Best

When I saw this post by Hanna, I loved the concept behind it. My Mom wasn't big on quotes, but I do remember her telling me over and over again that you can never be overdressed or overeducated. So in an effort to continue my goal of being a better mom, here are some things I believe in that I want to pass on to my two kiddos.
