Skating in BK

Greenpoint Ice Skating Rink

Our unseasonably warm, 60 degree weather is back just in time for the first weekend of ice skating at the McCarren Park Pool located on the Greenpoint-Williamsburg border. If you don’t have skates, don’t worry. You can rent them for $5. The rink is open 11am-10pm every day of the week through January. All of […]

My gorgeous cousin is getting hitched this coming year and I couldn’t be happier! She and her fiance live in beautiful Christchurch, New Zealand (he’s a native kiwi) and it’s been such fun to be getting wedding planning updates from afar! This past week, she sent me a link to the amazing Juliette Hogan‘s website.  […]

At Home…

I am a sucker for dumplings.  Any kind of dumpling really, from perogies to shumai, I’m into it.  Recently, I decided it was time to try my hand at making some myself ,and boy, am I glad I did.  Not only were they relatively easy to make- there’s nothing like a freshly made dumpling to […]

Color Inspiration

Color can  inspire pretty much anything we do, create, and how we live our lives on a daily basis. When we sit down with a client for the first time, one of the first questions we always ask is what color palettes are you most drawn to. Whether they answer vibrant hues, neutrals, romantic colors, […]

Crushing On…

LEIF

Tis the season for online shopping or at least that is what the commercial world is leading us to believe right now.  Something about how there is less time between Thanksgiving and Christmas than usual. Who knows?! All I know are the holidays are upon us whether we like it or not. Above is a […]

Southern Weddings Magazine

This past Spring we headed down to Savannah with Jen Huang Photography and the ladies of Southern Weddings Magazine to shoot a bridal shower luncheon. It was an insanely beautiful setting and we’re excited to see it in print. Here is a preview of the magazine on stands now. Snag yourself a copy, it’s a really […]

DIY Interior Painting

Poppies & Posies Interiors

You may remember me ranting on about my latest obsession with the color teal. The good news is you won’t have to listen to me gabbing about how I’d love to be adventurous enough to paint the interior of our apartment with this bold color anymore. After about 50 hours (of 2-3 people painting), 7 […]

Winterize

Winter Accessories

Winter is creeping up on us in the Northeast a little each day. I’ve picked a few of my favorite remedies and essentials for the dropping temps. My biggest go to is a cozy scarf. You can never have too many scarves! {cozy socks from free people, chevron scarf & leather gloves from Toast, circle […]

I don’t know too much about art, but always wished that I knew more. I’ve been on the hunt for affordable art lately to fill the walls of our apartment. It’s something I’ve wanted to start collecting for a long time now, but always hold back in fear that I’ll commit to the wrong pieces. […]

Wedding Dresses

I wish I could claim I found this on my own, but I didn’t. My good friend, Bryn of Paperfinger, blogged about it a little bit ago and I am totally enamored with both the photography and the dresses themselves.  I have no idea if I could ever even pretend to afford one of these […]

On a boat…

PJB_houseboatforanthology1

I think Pia Jane Bijkerk is one incredibly talented lady.  Her styling, books, and kitchen adventures having me swooning. Perhaps most inspiring, is her lovely little houseboat in Amsterdam.  The ‘petit batuea vert’ was featured a few years back in Anthology Magazine.  I still look back at this spread when I want to dream a […]
