Ya'll seen this?

I am always shouting from the rooftops about re purposing things and trolling Craigslist like a...troll, but these people put me to shame. We have been here almost two months, and we just got the lawn mower out of the dining room! Damn. Via Decorno.



I am, however narrowing down a blue, I have decided to go with a lighter, but still sexy blue. The dark was too much of a commitment for me right now... I mean this past year I got married and bought a house, shit, dark paint was just too much for me. I am taking Ryan Korban's flat as an inspiration, blue walls, gray silk curtains, chrome, red, oriental rugs...this I can handle.

p.s This morning, after a few weeks of a avoiding the poop roll, and generally keeping out of trouble, Coco decided to dig up something dead, and you guessed it, roll around in it. All I am saying is thank gawd O was around...that dog.

Oh Cocó

Slang for poo in my Spanish family growing up was cocó....I suppose it is telling that I named my doggie Coco, yes this post is all about poo, it is a pooost.

Poo, why do dogs love it so? (I feel like I should have started a poem there) Coco, I have recently discovered, loves to find it in the back yard, and roll around in it, as she did yesterday. I will spare you the coat matting, hour long "bath" details...suffice to say it took all day for me to stop smelling phantom poo all over the place.



So this morning, sweet smelling, clean little coco runs outside, finds another pile (except I looked, and I didn't seeeee any, but I smelllled it on the ground) and rolls around in it like bank robbers roll around on their big pile of money on the bed, got me? She rejoiced in it, she made little moaning, tiny growling sounds as she scooted all over the grass on her back. Now, I am scared to let her go outside! BLERG, what to do???

Ok, who has poo rollers? How do you discourage this nastiness? Blerg.

Wren Wedding Dress

Oh, this dress is dreamy...I wanted to have a dress made for my own wedding (don't get me wrong, loved my dress...) but I pictured something like this. I love how summary it looks, and that nipped in waist, classic bride. And that bouquet! I love it, I used vintage milinary flowers, and now I can see my bouquet all the time, and remember my special day. I just love the idea of not using live flowers, so interesting. Don't you think? via {frolic} via Martha.

On an unrelated note, this weekend, O was showing some signs of hesitation about the blue bedroom, and I was beginning to reconsider, but then I got bold again, so today I am headed to get some paint!

Brain Mares

Arrg, both O and I had nightmares last night, and I have an ear infection, on both ears, seriously, how old am I??? Maybe when I get the bedroom all nice and blued-up, it will keep nightmares away, isn't blue supposed to do that? Does anyone know about this? I was told if you imagine blue, and keep your mind on that, it helps with bad dreams. I don't have them often enough to really have ever tried it.



Usually when I am in the middle of a bad dream, I get pissed off, and start having super powers and blowing all the bad people up with eye lasers and I can fly and stuff...you?? The problem with this is, when in real life, people piss me off, the first thing that comes to mind is "I am going to eye laser you!" but it doesn't work. So I will them to get violent diarrhea from the depths of my mind. It hasn't worked yet, that I know of...The power of silent suggestion is quite powerful, don't you think.

BLUEEEE

Oh right, here is another one! The perfect shade.....Naturally, from Kate Spade's guest room.

Fabulous Wedding

My very stylish real life and blog friend Leigh, of Found, now Home, sent me this fabulous wedding yesterday. It is soooo freaking cool, I wish I could be friends with them, and they had invited me to their wedding, but then maybe I would be jealous, since it is so cool.

one more...
