Happy Friday 2/25/22

Happy Friday! How was your week? We did a little salvage shopping in Seattle this week and goodness, digging for used, one-of-a-kind treasures is my jam! Surfing through the re-use stores really sparks my creativity and we ended up with a pretty good haul this trip. We found vintage fir pocket doors, new (old) claw feet for our tub, antique door hardware, and a beautiful (and incredibly inexpensive!) remnant of Carrara marble. Eeek! Can’t wait to get them installed in our bathroom!

Some fun links from the week…

Life’s a party, not a race. I’m having feelings about turning the big 4-0 next week, and this piece was just what I needed! (cupofjo)

This London townhouse is so dang charming! Can we talk about those fabric pendants over the kitchen island?! (domino)

I ordered these sandals for a last-minute spring break vacay (this lady needs some sunshine!). They’re slip-ons and oh so comfy! Also recommend this long dress if you’re in the market. (evereve affiliate)

Need help coping with anxiety? This 5-year-old’s advice is spot on. “You gotta walk big. You gotta mean it. Like Dolly on a dinosaur. Because you got it.” (nytimes)

Blown away by this before-and-after! (@kinandkasa)

There I almost am. An interesting peek into identical twins. (For the record, as an identical twin myself, I feel so much of this deeply but not degree of envy.) (yalereview)

I ordered a scissor-extension mirror for our bathroom this week…one of these!

These moody-hued kitchens will have you rethinking white cabinets. Heidi Caillier is the queen of kitchens! (Federicmagazine)

I’m so tempted to get this brass mirror for the boys room. Harry Potter is a big deal around here! (potterybarn affiliate)

Just finished this book and really enjoyed it. It was a page-turner and a joy. (amazon affiliate, indiebound)

Hope you have a good one!
