Details, Details

Custom work is my favorite. I love it when a bride knows what she wants and this bride definitely did. Natalie was great to work with and it was fun working to create her vision for each piece for her wedding.

To start with, she had these Save the Dates that featured one of their engagement photos. Such a great way to announce your day.

In lieu of the traditional program, Natalie opted for fans. The doodled wedding party on one side of the fan is so unique! On the flip side, the events for the evening.



Natalie took photos from their big day and turned them into her thank you notes. These were a flat card that had this on one side and the other was blank for the written note. What a great idea?


All are creative ideas that could be used for your special occasion. Even if these are not exactly what you have in mind, maybe they will spark an idea or your own.

Fun Day at the Zoo

Yesterday was an absolutely beautiful day here in Alabama, so we decided to take full advantage of the day and spend it outdoors. Although I have lived in Birmingham for over 4 years, I had never been to the zoo...so we went! We had a lot of fun and I got some cool shots of some of the creatures living inside.

My Latest Creative Project

In the past weeks (or months) the biggest creative project in my life has been the nursery of our soon-to-be baby girl. As of yesterday, I'm considering it done! It has been so much fun getting it all together, but it has also been a ton of work. Here are some photos of where our little angel will rest her head.

Here's her crib. The art on the wall is a decal from a fellow Etsy artist, Chuck E. Byrd. The design went perfect with the look I was going for in the room.



We got the valance to go with the bedding set. I am not one for "matchy matchy" rooms so I was unsure as to whether or not I would use it. After adding it on top of the curtains...I still wasn't sold. Well, after adding the sassy fringe and hot pink fuzzy balls to the base of it, I was definite that this was a perfect touch to the room. My very artistic, jack of all trades mother graciously added this touch for me!


The butterflies might be my favorite detail! The air vent in the room is close to them so they just lightly flutter around in the corner. I love them.


A painting to add some orange to the room. Painted by yours truly.


Hopefully as our little girl grows she will like her room as much as we do!

Any Occasion Stationery

These cards are modern, fun and great for any occasion! All can be found in my Etsy Shop. They can be purchased as an individual set or a mix pack with a few of each color.

April Showers Bring May Flowers Part 2

I've been extremely busy in the past few weeks and have been neglecting my blog! Although, during this time, my flowers have continued to grow and bloom and make my garden more beautiful each day. How can you not love this time of year?
