Rainbow

Here is the rainbow tree I made that came from an ugly country style coat rack. It will now be a colorful addition to my Reggio Inspired Classroom, perhaps to hang documentation or family pictures from.

Studio redo

In my ongoing quest to stay organized and on top of all my teaching gigs, this week I got another Expedit bookcase to organize my most used books and resources for classes. I'm pretty happy with the results. It should provide a much smoother transition back to work in the Fall!

Rearranging

Just bought this piece of furniture at the resale shop at the end of my street to replace the cabinet that went up to my bathroom. Thrilled with the results in all rooms and added storage!

Just have to paint the bathroom cabinet, probably red.

Flower Power

I just can't quit the flower power habit!

Chet is ready for Spring!

Freshening up

I usually love to rearrange furniture but for some reason in my current house, things seem to be where they are supposed to be, leaving less room for creativity. Instead I'm just switching up all my pillows. Liking that the living room feels a little more whimsical with these pillows.

Had the ultimate in fun last night attending an 80's prom. There is NOTHING I'd rather do than spend the night dancing to 80's music. One of the best parts is that miraculously, I was able to wear the same dress that I wore in 1983. Same dress and even better, SAME DATE!

Inspiration

I am hoping that since I got a new camera, I will be a bit more inspired for blogging. I can tell already that it takes WAY better photos. Here are a few things around the house that I'm loving.

Buffy & Mrs Beasley

I was a huge fan of the show Family affair. I wanted a Mrs. Beasley doll so badly. This photo is so darling!

Gorgeous!

Springtime in Washington D.C

Our recent trip to D.C was a nice break from the blah weather we continue to have in Boston. Here are some of the things that really perked us up.

We loved the Pink Betsey Johnson dress, just not the price tag!

Mother like Daughter

The collage my daughter made for her friend. Clearly it's in the genes!
