The evening light came poring through our living room window so beautifully last night. Happy weekend.... |

There was. That perfect kind that seems to cast an almost undefinable glow upon everything and everyone within it. And it fell into my inbox on a particularly grey and gloomy day… sunshine medicine if you will. Photographer Catherine Mead single handedly managed to switch on my inspiration light switch with the moments she captured whilst attending the Jose Villa Workshop in Mexico. And for that I will be eternally grateful. The Claire Pettibone 2012 collection gowns are out-of-this-world , I want someone, anyone to wear a frock with just the faintest hint of a pale blue and then carry... |
We finally changed out the lighting. If you remember, there were florescent lights all throughout the place. I had looked into some lighting options but the ones that I did love were way over my budget and because the space is so big, I would've had to purchase a truck load of them. We decided to go with these ikea pendant lights and my dad came up with the idea to make our own chandelier type of fixture. The other thing we did was change up the floor color. We started out with a coffee bean epoxy paint but as we walked on it, footprints were marked all over the floors. So I made my 100th tri... |

One of my favorite styles of photography is light-filled giving off a kind of dream like feeling. The stunning images here are from Three Nails Photography via Pinterest. Uncovering real artistry like this to share with you all is truly a gift, beyond words, and as one pinner said about the second of these gems, 'This is so beautiful it should be illegal . . . ."... |
Don’t be afraid of color! If you opt to not have a splash of color added to your wedding day attire (i.e… bridesmaid dresses, bouquets, etc.), you can always consider adding color with lighting. Lighting is a beautiful option that can alter any venue into the wedding affair of your dreams. Side Note: I ran across the below pictures and was immediately reminded of the school yard days when we played the ever popular “Red Light Green Light” – where someone was the caller and after they yelled “Green Light” a whole group of people tried to run to the “safe zone” before the... |
I love my chosen wedding dress (now that I’ve stopped changing my mind every week about what corset style I want) and I wouldn’t change it for the world! But after seeing these photos from Wedinator, Geeky Gadgets and Techchee I’ve started wishing that my dress could light up… I wonder if I’d be able to sew fairy lights around the hem of my skirt? Hmmm…..... |
