Rewinding to a Few Missed Highlights

While I was off in Colorado avoiding my digital life, a few exciting things occurred that I wanted to circle back to and share. First, our study was featured on Apartment Therapy! Someone spotted the room on the house tour at La Dolce Vita and I saw two mentions - one here and the other here - both focusing on the magazine display.

The ironic thing is that I consider this to be one of the least finished rooms in the house. In fact, it's a little embarrassing to see pics of its current state on a site as huge as Apartment Therapy. The desk situation is temporary and I still haven't properly dressed the walls. I originally intended to hang another line of magazines above the row that's already up, and I think I still like the idea. I could go on and on about what I'd like to accomplish in there, but alas, I'm in the space ALL of the time, so I forget that it should be higher up on my to-do list. In any case, it was great to see it featured!

Secondly, I did a "10 Things I Can't Live Without" guest post over at LDV. I tried to keep it breezy and not get into the heavy, super meaningful stuff. It was a little hard to come up with list items at first, and then it quickly got out of control when I started rattling off mundane, stranded-on-a-desert-island types of items like toilet paper and all of my fav foods (SO pathetic, I know). Besides paraphrasing the fat girl rant, I narrowed down my exhaustive list by choosing things that photograph well, like these little goons :)

In other Knight Moves news, one of my blog crushes, Jen of Made by Girl, gave my turquoise HomeGoods lamps a shout-out. She had the same lamps (from TJ Maxx) and painted them black...they look amazing, go check them out!

Finally, I was invited to participate in Hello Splendor's first Blog Crawl! I'm pumped to be involved...my post is scheduled for 9/30, but be sure to check out everyone else's posts in the meantime too. It's a fantastic roster of bloggers and I'm honored to be included...thanks Beth :)
