almost every little girl (including me!) loved to play "house" growing up.I have no idea what my sister and I were thinking as kids,but we would go over to vanessa bridges house across the street to set up our "house".we'd drag out old sheets and clothespin them to the branches of her backyard pine tree's that created a little cove for us to build our "house".  we'd "borrow" flowers from neighbors to decorate around our house.  we even swept the floor and laid down a "rug" (okay, so it was a towel) to make it cozier!but we'd play over there for hours, just imagining what our real house would look like someday!

but I'm getting a little more comfortable with my own style.  kinda minimal, kinda modern, totally comfortable and just a smidge eclectic... and I've found a place that I simply LOVE!it is a most magnificent place online that I might just be getting a smidge too obsessed over...house wares...vintage decor...giant graphic design sticker wall art...kids clothes...unique one of a kind presents...vintage shoes...even techy stuff like web design, printables + custom fonts!yeah, etsy has my number. :)but I love that REAL people are either creating or refurbishing old stuff...cool stuff...one of a kind stuff!
