In session

How fun would this be for a meeting space? In my future...consultation meetings for fellow therapists will be here! I love the smarty-colorful-close feel of this space.

Smartypants

This is my new excuse to have a party.

Whether it be for a place setting, cheese labels, or other decor, I am in love with this idea.

I feel like these should be able to be DIY projects...they make blackboard paint...+ study place mat = result? hmmmm

OHEMGEE

I want, need, have to have these. What will it take?

Time for a change

Image - love it here

Although I love the golden-y color of the first photo, I think I'm ready for a real change. Not just a few low-lights or more ombre, but full-on rich brown. I've been blonde long enough and am restless for a change, and after seeing more and more brown hair I love, I need to do it and I need to do it now {hello instant gratification}

I don't want to go too dark since my eyebrows have gotten pretty bleached out this summer and look silly if I fill them in too much, but I have fallen in love with the colors below. {and yes I think that is the same girl is most of those photos but I WANT her hair}

S'more delights

Nothing says Summer like a campfire with s'mores. I've been dying to do just this but in our backyard fire pit. When it's no longer outdoor firepit season, I WILL be making these.

yum.

Hello, world

It's been official for a while, but I've definitely been swept up into the business of summer. Nannying full-time, searching for internships, living the dream, it's all a bit time consuming {in a new-ish and wonderful way, of course}

Some days I end up being distant from the 'sunshine + lollipops' girl I usually am and need to check out of the world for a bit for some restorative *me time*

After doing quite a bit of talking + thinking lately, I feel connected to this quote and want to strive to be and make the beautiful place for myself and for those around me.



For cooler weather

I am no where near ready to give up Summer yet, but I really love and want to wear this outfit. {and obviously I love her hair} Hear me, Mother Nature, I can and will wait till November.

Ready, set...awwwwwwww
