Welcome to Our Home: The Music Room

In our last house, we would often have to set up band practice in the middle of our living room or bedroom.  It was kind of a bummer considering we basically had instruments everywhere, and it made my house regularly feel like chaos.  Here in the Jefferson house, we finally have a music room!  Oh my, is it ever a God-send.  This space goes from lovely to looking like it exploded weekly, but it doesn't matter because it's all contained!  Chaos out of sight = Katie's brain works better

I'm so thankful to have this space!  I've worked hard over the last year to make our house feel cozy and this helps that so much!

Craft Night: Fabric Flowers

 
I don't know if you've picked up on a theme here, but craft night with my gals is one of my favorite nights of the week.  Last week, my talented friend, Lauren (check her Etsy shop-- gaaaahhh), taught us how to make these beautiful fabric flowers.  She's a florist by trade and an everything-else-creative by nature.  My new favorite night-time craft is to make these lovely flowers after my kiddos go to bed.  You've gotta have the art-release, right?

We had a much smaller crew than normal for our last craft night and it actually ended up being the perfect number.  (Which reminds me... I have a "Craft Night Tips" post coming soon!  I've learned tons over the last year.)  Anyway, Lauren brought some of the wine bottle candle holders she's been making for weddings, and I took a LOT of pictures (Johnny helped, too). When your dining room looks this cozy, how could you not?


It was SUCH a fun night and I'm so thankful for all of these talented ladies I get to call friends.  I'm in the process of making a bouquet for my entryway and I can't wait to share it with you all!  In the meantime, what kinds of crafts would you like to see here on this old blog?  I've been making more creatures (building my stock for a proper update), but what other types of projects are you interested in reading about?  I have a whole list and I'm trying to decide what to tackle first!  xo.

Etsy Love

It's been quite a while since my last Etsy Love post!  I've recently been re-bitten by the vintage bug, and I've found myself on Etsy quite a bit more these days.  Here are some of my current favorites!

This vintage dress from The Kissing Tree is so similar to the yellow one I just thrifted.  It's so classy and airy!

How darling is this porcelain ring from Misako Mimoko?  I wouldn't be able to take it out of the packaging!

These prints from Depeapa are so perfectly sweet and simple!  They would look great in so many parts of my house! 

This necklace from Opal and Gold would work with almost anything!  I'm in love!

I need to add this Nasty Woman patch from Sweet and Lovely to my denim jacket.  Pronto!

What are some of your favorite Etsy shops right now?  I'm especially in the market for art for my bedroom and pretty vintage finds!  Have a wonderful weekend, friends!
