crushing on: jersey ice cream company

webRiverhead-Dining-5

i stumbled on this amazing duo recently and am obsessed! i love how they came up with their name and i love every single thing they do. great story, great branding and amazing talent.

a little bit about them:

“Jersey Ice Cream Co was founded in the summer of 2010. Two kids in love found an old embossing stamp at a flea market, dreamed up a design empire, and then set to work trying to create it. Today Tara Mangini and Percy Bright spend their time moving house to house, job to job, leaving beautiful homes in their wake. They believe in craftsmanship, timelessness, and leaving things better than they found them. They do not make ice cream, but will happily have some if you’re offering.”

and here’s some of their work:

things in my shopping cart

i know i’m not the only one who always has a bunch of tabs of ‘shopping carts’ from favorite sites, just sitting there waiting to bite the bullet. i thought it’d be fun to talk about some of the good things i’m desperately wanting.

41StnD-yI9L._SX425_

eames style chair– such versatile chairs (and they come in a million colors!) think; a closet catchall chair, dining room chairs, desk chair, etc)

14953533

gold flatware– yes.

50330419

crosby collection swing arm sconce– i love these a lot. i can’t believe the price although i’m eager to see the quality. now to find a place for them….

 

k2-_08e54741-15b4-4609-a7ed-357f4a7b6bc6.v1

lexmold molded plastic rocker– theres this really cool old house down the street from us that i’m in love with (i’m dying to go inside because i have a feeling they have it decorated amazing!) and on their front porch they have two hermès orange planters with lettuce planted in them and then off to the side, one of these rockers. i love it! the juxtaposition of the mod and a national register historic house, is just too much for me to handle!

minnen-ext-bed-frame-with-slatted-bed-base-black__0367058_PE549636_S4

minnen bed frame– how sweet is this toddler bed??

big-sur-pfeiffer-sp

(off topic but) air/hotel reservations are also sitting in my virtual cart. we’re planning a trip to california (santa barbara/ monterey/ big sur/ san francisco/ napa) in a few months and would love some recommendations!

mother’s day gifts

happy (almost) mother’s day! my ideal day would be to sleep in, breakfast in bed and then, if the weather is nice, go to some vineyards. do y’all have any fun traditions?

a few ideas for all the moms in your life! spoil them- they deserve it!

114723_A2_Uma_Sound_Lantern

a lantern and a speaker in one!

STB071_papayahib

i love pretty much everything by marysia but this one might be my favorite.

flower delivery and/or subscription from the bouqs.

2P_032216_4_20-_207462_20-_20Card_splash_feature

blue apron meal/s- we use them about once a month and it is the best. we’ve loved all the meals and it’s so easy and convenient, even for someone like me who doesn’t love to cook.

cuyana-leather-laptop-sleeve-in-blushi’m a huge fan of cuyana. loving this laptop sleeve!

IMG_9908_1024x1024.JPG

loving this terrafirma tray from open door shop (a charleston favorite).

these books look really good.

il_570xN.850380741_e3w3

how cute is this? the notebook inspired vintage travel poster. i just purchased this from (couldn’t resist) windowshopgal‘s etsy store. there are more from other movies/shows too-love! (realllly into this breaking bad one too.)

what you should be buying at: furbish studio

another new series (!)- what you should be buying at _____. i’ll be spotlighting stores that i love and the amazing stuff they have.

first up- furbish studio. jamie meares, of the oh-so popular blog, i suwanee, is such an inspiration and has an amazing eye. such a great mix of home accessories, gifts, even bags and jewelry. i have yet to visit the raleigh brick and mortar but this is a site i check weekly to see what new goodies they have and trust me, they have so much good stuff.

check out some of my favorites.

Laguna_I_Secondary

this cult classic is back in stock and is so versatile- living room/ playroom storage, a bright pop of color in the bathroom or even a planter.

Pink_Otomi_Runner_2_-_3

i’m such a sucker for an otomi textile. another versatile purchase- table runner, a cool wall hanging (how cute would it look in a little girl’s room??), even at the end of the bed.

Ibiza_Lumbar_Blue_-090-fin

love this simple pillow.

 

Landscape_Ginger_Jar_medium

such a pretty southern staple.

 

Screen_Shot_2015-11-23_at_4.43.44_PM

about to scoop this up for the front porch (ps-i finally painted the headboard ceiling haint blue and let me tell ya, it looks GOOD 🙂 also, i wanted to be as historically correct as i could so i referred to the “historic colors of charleston” color chart by sherwin williams and picked piazza blue.)

Pool_Bar_Print_1

i’m such a fan of local artists and this one just so happens to be from my ol’ stompin’ grounds. love this one from dorothy shain.

SO good, right?

bathroom: before & after + accessories

bath

 

our mini bathroom update (paint and tile) was finished right before thanksgiving and i never shared- sorry about that! although they were just small changes, it really did a lot for the space. ultimately, we’d like to gut/ rearrange it but for now, its good to go! now i’m just looking for small accessories (ie new knobs, some hooks, hand towels) to finish off the look.
