Feathering the nest...

I've been feathering a lot lately...

Not sure if it's the excitement of the wedding
having our own place
or the simple fact that I love to shop

Regardless...

I could not resist this beautiful bedding

It was on sale...

Does that count for something?

I also scored some pretty scchhwweet wedding shoes tonight at T.J's

for a mere $40

They are soooo FUN!!!

I would show you pic but they are peep toes

which means well manicured toe nails

which mine are NOT

actually they could use a good pedi

Maybe tomorrow :)

2010 is going to be a big year here at EmersynLane.

We'll be doing lots of Celebrating...

A wedding
A graduation
Possibly a move
A new job for Mr. R

Lots of things to look forward to.

Speaking of a move...

Apparently Mr. R does NOT necessarily appreciate my love for all things vintage

Recently when he was having a conversation with his Grandma about how I would be decorating our home he replied....

"she likes old sh*t"

Thanks Babe!!


Slightly off topic, my mom and I made a trip to Bloomsbury loft and the antique mall in Powell.

I came home with a gorgeous six pane window

It was even pink and chippy... just perfect!

My last trip there resulted in an antique door with an awesome ceramic knob

I told Mr. R not to worry...



I was building our home one piece at a time :)

A Grand Gathering

I've been doing a lot of browsing lately

Getting InSpIrED

I'm loving the feminine details in these pictures

Thanks to the lovely Meg Sutton

Lola B's

The dearest Kasey is hosting a Giveaway my friends...
Such a sweet gal she is
and so generous too!!
You don't want to miss this one.

Go drop your name in the bucket!

Fresh Balsam

It starting to feel like Christmas around here.

It even smells like it too.

When you don't have the space for a real tree, you improvise.

A little artificial foliage and this wonderful candle do the trick.

If you're like me and you love the smell of fresh pine...

this is exactly what the doctor ordered.

They're 2 for $20 right now at Bath and Body.

Funky

I'm in a funk.
I can't find the right words to say
I'm not feeling in the least bit creative
I don't feel on top of my game
I'm emotional
I've got a lot going on
I've got a lot on my mind
I'm sad
I'm happy
I'm tired
I'm overwhelmed
I've got a TON of decisions to make
I just need to clear my mind
get some extra sleep
and take-care of myself
I'll be back rejuvenated after a weekend of shopping with the girls
Until we meet again <3>
