still have a couple yards left of this awesome vintage Schumacher. The dark color background is a deep plum. yummy.

2. Speaking of fabrics, I love this horizontal striped black and white slubby linen available from Calico Corners. For a subtler approach to my curtains. Price is $36.99/yd.

3. Also, this upholstery grade gray and creamy white ikat is phenomenal. I don’t know who makes it. There’s a random roll at one of my fabric haunts. Let me know if you want me to pick you up some. Price is $22/yard.

5. Paloma’s kitchen round up was awesome. I think I gasped when I saw this one for the first time. Ohmygoodness. That island.

6. My latest household product obsession: Mrs. Meyers dryer sheets in Baby Blossom scent. The smell is sooooo good that I actually like doing laundry now… most days.

7. Next, I think this stool at Home Goods would be genius reupholstered in black or charcoal linen. The legs are my favorite part.

8. In fact, they sort of remind me of these awesome pepper mills from IKEA.

9. And finally, a little family update: Life is good, my friends. As much as I love all of you, nothing makes me happier than being a mom to these lovely little lassies.

Grace is my partner in decorating crime and she also loves preschool. Claire turned three on the 16th and cries every day when I drop off Grace at school.

Evie turned three months old yesterday. And you better believe she weighs 17 pounds.

She totally would have polished off Claire’s birthday cake if she wasn’t stuck in the Bumbo.

That’s all. peace out.

  1. I just got a sewing machine the other day, so all your posts are giving me ideas! Your girls are absolutely adorable, especially Evie. Those cheeks, that expression, those chubby little hands! If you're ever in Seattle and need a babysitter, I'll volunteer!

  2. Such cute girls! You are a blessed lady! One thing I know about China… Look for pieces stamped "Made in Occupied Japan". This refers to the period when WWII ended to about 1952. Some of these pieces can be pretty valuable! But regardless of value, if you like it–get it!

  3. I became a stalker of your blog recently – and am trying to get caught up on your old posts… your girls are precious!

  4. So happy to have found you! The fabrics really inspire me to get something going in my breakfast nook. And I love everything about that little stool from HomeGoods – legs and fabric. Which store do you shop?

    Love those lassies! They're adorable.

  5. I have to leave a comment on these three adorable baby girls. Oh my goodness. Too cute for words and little one with those cheeks Oh how I wish I could hold her. My babies had those cheeks. So I know how soft and kissable they can be. I will check out the dryer sheets. I use cling free in powder fresh but they are almost impossible to find anymore. Have a wonderful weekend!! Kathysue

  6. cute kids…and the baby..WOW! She is to cute. I love cubby babies. Some women get offended by that, but sorry…I love my babies with some meat to kiss on. Both of mine were over 8 pounds and I am only
    5'1

  7. Wow Jenny your girls are so gorgeous!! I can't believe how big G looks, and that hair?! I am dying over E and her chubbiness…chubby babies are the best and she wears it well. :)

  8. I covered a Duncan Phyfe sofa in that vintage Schumacher fabric about thirty years ago. ( It wasn't
    vintage then). It was spectacular, and I hated to see it go when I went for a more traditional Federal look….Thanks for the memories!
