This blog entry is especially for my friends from far and near who have met or heard me talk about my awesome brother John and my (now official!) sister-in-law Stephanie. They got married this past weekend, and being two insanely stylish suckers I knew that there was going to be eye candy for fashion & design. It looked absolutely beautiful and all their own style. Congratulations John, Steph and the coolest of nephews ever, mister Alvin J. WE LOVE YOU ALL!!

How cool is this nursery? Spotted in Susanna Salk’s Room for Children book.
It looks functional, as well as beautiful. I love the mix of pictures on the wall, as well as the bright gender-neutral colors.
So the other day I was talking to my friend Jen about her birthday, and what was on her birthday wish list. Jen ashamedly said that on top of her list was a butter dish, and how it officially made her sound like her mother (i.e. OLD).
Well… All I want for my birthday (it’s September, but I can start wishing now, right?) is a couple of filing cabinets !!!
Our paperwork is currently in manila folders in an old suitcase. And it’s visible to anyone who comes to our apartment. It’s horrible. But I looked and most filing cabinets out there look like they’re from a tired old DMV last furnished sometime in the ’80s. But look! I found these! Bisley make cute, colorful filing cabinets that I would be very happy to have visible in my living room. Now I just have to choose a color…
Can one fall in love with a curtain panel? It’s quite possible I have fallen in love with this one.

I was checking out Reichel B’s Copy Cat Chic blog for interior design ideas when I came across the post about her nursery… it’s peacock themed, and I LOVE IT. It seems to have been inspired by this lovely lamp:
Here is a side table we’re thinking of getting for the living room. It’s from Industry>West, who have built upon the classic Tolix industrial aesthetic by making industrial furniture crafted from reclaimed woods, distressed fabrics and metals.

A few lovely things I’m lusting after at Jonathan Adler… bring on the bright spring colors!
Re-nest just posted an excellent Best of Etsy 2011 list. Stuck at home on this foggy NY morning, I managed to find a beautiful Flamingo print from unitedthread, a very talented painter from Salem who I think I’ll be buying more from in the future. Can’t wait for it to arrive!
