Lovely gray home decor

Metropolitan Home

Gray is chic for weddings and looks sophisticated in homes, too. I'm definitely on board with this trend.

Out of the ashes


A gorgeous new online mag from folks at the former (sigh) Domino...
Check out Lonny.
Beautiful interiors, beautiful design ideas. Very exciting!

Sophisticated Gray

I find myself really drawn to gray in wedding details these days. Sophisticated, not too girly, and looks great with purples and greens.

Missed Connections

Love, love, love these illustrations by Sophie Blackall inspired by the "Missed Connections" posts on Craigslist. They're so perfect, sometimes poetic, sometimes sad, sometimes hopeful. You can buy prints, too!

Ciao, Roma

Sorry for the radio silence—I've been away on honeymoon in Rome! I brought you back something, though...couldn't help but collect images of signs, letters, and typography everywhere we walked.


More wedding and home goodies to come as I get settled again back home.

Green wedding

image: Carrie Patterson

Oh, I love it. Set your bridesmaids free to choose dresses in a wide color family! (It may be helpful to them if you give them guidelines on length / level of formality, and it may actually mean more lengthy discussions than if you just picked something, but it's so cute!)

These earrings would be pretty on the bride or the bridesmaids.

Before planning a wedding, I could not imagine why what all the complicated placecard arrangements and holders were necessary. And then I got married somewhere windy, and wanted everything alphabetized and arranged ahead of time. Love these little succulents and moss!

An array of pashminas make a nice gift for your guests in case it gets cold.

And a little something sweet.

A touch of sun indoors


image: Martha Stewart

Yesterday, I posted some fresh yellow wedding ideas. But after the big day, what about bringing sunny citrus tones into the home? It doesn't have to be much—even just a set of towels or a few curtains in a white room can do it!


Or, brighten things up a little more by filling in the back wall of your bookshelf.

Woodland Wedding


Sticking with the woodland theme...here are some more rustic goodies for fall weddings. I'm kind of in love with the wooden cake stand above.


Into the Woods

They're not cheap, but man are these teak bathtubs gorgeous. They're handmade by a boat builder in Scotland and sold by The Water Monopoly in London. I wonder if I could convince my landlord to install one?

While we're talking about lovely things made from trees, let's drool a little over this kitchen from Sunset Magazine. The cupboards are unfinished wood. Love it.

A Modern, Sunny Celebration


I love these bright, fresh colors for a wedding. How fun are the non-matching bridesmaids dresses above? Incorporating bright colors into a wedding sets a happy, celebratory mood.

Melon, orange, and yellow work together beautifully to brighten the day. These single-color arrangements are sweet and modern.

Top the day off with this square wedding cake. Love the geometric designs!

If It Rains on Your Wedding Day...


At least you can get some cute shots like these.

And huddle close under the umbrella!

Outfitting your wedding party with a few good looking umbrellas is a great idea, too! Maybe being prepared will even scare the rain away.
