What Stef's been up to lately.

Spring is here and the snow is almost completely melted, and I couldn't be happier! I am already feeling more motivated and inspired to tackle projects that I have been putting off for months! I've already knocked a few things off of my to-do list and can't wait to get started on the rest. Here is a little peek at what I've been up to over the last couple weeks:

I had my family down to our place for Easter dinner this year which consisted of a lot of seafood, a lot of wine, and a lot of good conversation. We were lucky that it was even nice enough for us to have a quick dip in the hot tub in my backyard afterwards! Mmm... evening hot tubs in the chilly weather really are the best.

I've mentioned this before but my little bro, Dan, is getting married this summer! He has been on the hunt for a wedding venue with his fiance, Stacey, and Erin and I offered up our studio space as a possible ceremony location. They immediately fell in love with the space, but unfortunately I don't think it will be quite big enough to accommodate all of their guests. It would definitely be a pretty awesome spot for other wedding related activities though. (I totally wish we had this space when I was planning my wedding!)

I bought this print at Urban Outfitters like a million years ago, but it's still one of my favorites. I have been doing a bit of re-organizing and more spring cleaning in my house over the last little while and have been finding new homes for some of my favorite pieces.

My dryer broke a few weeks ago and when it did it also managed to destroy all of my bedding too. I know that sounds super upsetting, but really it just gave me the perfect excuse to buy new sheets! (Yay!) I am really liking how this yellow and white striped set is brightening up my bedroom just in time for spring.

I feel like I've been pretty M.I.A. in my kitchen for the past several months, but lately I have been trying to make up for that. I've been enjoying trying out new recipes as well as making some old favorites.

What about you guys? What have you been up to lately?
XO, Stef

  1. I love the stand holding your record player! If it's not vintage... where can I buy one?

  11. I look at the picture of the records and go 'nooo, not the wine on the records! The stains!' lol.
    That seems pretty dangerous. :) I do love your pyrex collection of bowls though. Very pretty.
