Blue Cheese.

If you love blue cheese as much as our family does then you might understand my excitement when I saw that Trader Joe's is carrying St. Agur this month!  Super stinky and creamy - YUM!  Blue cheese and crackers was always one of our dad's favorite treats when we were kids and we are still always discussing which one is the best.  This is my favorite variety and is normally $21.99/lb at Whole Foods - but at Trader Joe's it is only $10.99/lb.  So if you have a Trader Joe's in your area check it out - it's only going to be there for the month!

Busts.

I love the sense of humor in these busts - they aren't so serious when they have multiple uses.

What a fun way to charge your phone!

These vases are super cute - they look great with succulents.

Great candles!

My sister Al has this great broken bust in her office and every time I go in there she has something fun hanging on her - like this necklace I made for Al at Christmas.

Or one of her hats - I love it - she's got character!

A Bit of Fall.

The fall weather has me loving all of the golden leaves on the ground, the rich colors of worn in leather, aged patinas on old metal trinkets, the warm glow of a lamp at dusk, bookshelves full of old favorites, road trips - I love this time of year!  How about you?

Banquette Seating.

While looking thru the latest Coastal Living this dining room stopped me in my tracks.

I love the the picture wall and the orange striped banquettes.  This would be so cute in a home kitchen and it got me thinking of other banquette seating that I like.

Those black tiles and windows - so gorgeous!

Blue houses and Rainy Days.

I just love this blue house - I'd like to lounge around in the yard and use the building next door as my studio!  Wouldn't that be great!

We've been having some rainy days lately and I kind of like it.  A rainy day always inspires me to be creative and get wrapped up in a project.  Starting with an awesome cup of coffee!

More blues that are inspiring me.

A Very Cool Bike.

I love this Danish designed Triobike!

What a great way to tool around town with your babes in tow!

It's a bike and a stroller!

Beautiful Bags and Dresses.

I love these gorgeous bags from IOMOI.

My favorite thing about them is that they are monogrammable!  I love a good monogram.

Super cute striped dresses caught my eye too!

Classic stripes always make me happy!

Running horses too - love it - would be so cute with a pair of Frye Boots for the fall!
