We met really briefly at the white party! The whole conference was fantastic and energizing. I think so many of us are toiling away in solitude, so it's nice to actually meet people who are doing the same thing and get it.

For a business office, I think it looks great!

I first fell in love with this combination when I saw Kate Spade packaging. Loved it so much it was half of my wedding colors..

I did this last weekend. Finally boxed up all of my texts like "Immodest Acts: The Life of a Lesbian Nun in Renaissance Italy." Goodwill is about to get a decent gender studies collection.

Umbrellas of Cherbourg is what immediately pops in my head too. Really saturated rooms.

Ever since honeymooning in Palm Springs, I am positively obsessed with California design influences. Nothing but good vibes from this board.

The only thing I use the tape for is as a splatter guard on baseboards when rolling.
If you make a mistake doing it by hand, you can wipe paint off with a rag. Or, if it's on glass, a razor will scrape off the dry paint. So much faster than taping an entire room.
I painted for a company during my summers from college, so I guess I'm semi pro at this..

former english major here: I purged a lot of it. There are some I can't part with - potential for rereading, great notes in the margins, etc - but there are others that will forever lurk at the bottom of the bookcase.

if you get over the sentimentality associated with books, you realize it's just more crap you have to dust.

I don't understand why everyone cries for originality in designs. Everything has been done before. Everything.

And H&M doesn't "create trends." Pick up any fashion magazine and you can plainly see what they're riffing. If you're trying to purchase anything on trend at a low price point, you're getting something inspired by a designer item. There's no escaping that fact, so just deal.

Gosh we're practically neighbors.
