The perfect nook

When I first moved into this house I was unsure of what to do with this little window space- it was tucked away from the living room but not really big enough to be its own room or dining area. And then it hit me a dual functioning space one where guests can sleep at night but during the day you can use and it is still aesthetically pleasing. 

There is something so comforting about settling in amidst white down and twinkley lights- that seems to make the rest of the world fade away. This is the perfect place to post up with a good book and a cup of coffee and escape for a few hours. 

And to make it even better this is possibly one of the quickest DIY's I've ever done- the longest part being the obtaining of the pallets.

"Cause I'm free as a bird now, and this bird you can not change"

This Monday Ali and I took a little Trek into the canyon in search of some light and possibly a field...both of which we found. Battling thorny flowers, lots of crawly insects and wind we found the most amazing tree and a slew of wildflowers.

I'm late Im late for a very important date!

 Monday was a hodge podge of activities... Ali, Emily and I put together a little tea party sans the tea in my front garden; sandwiches lemonade and the cutest cupcakes ever. Then we had some fun trying to capture a shot for Ali's design school portfolio. She needed a magazine cover that had went with the store she created, hence the myriad of outfits I wore on this lovely sunny day..




                                                     
Emily and her absolutely beautiful boy, Thomas.
