Things haven’t quite slowed down yet— but I had to share this quote.

Sprinkles Bar
Speaking of these fun, colorful, goodies— how cool is this always ready sundae center? Who needs alcohol when chocolate sauce, carmel and a bevy of toppings is always on hand? Not to mention the awesome styling of the whole area makes my heart flutter. If I went to a house with this, I may never leave… {via Amy at Eat Drink Chic}
Spring Transitions
March is a wonderfully tricky month that is somewhere between winter and spring, and the length of the transition varies from year to year. So I am loving these slightly muted takes on bright color combinations to ease into the warmer and (hopefully!) sunnier months to come.

Things That Go Together
These fun photos by Emily Blincoe called This & That remind me of my awesome bridal shower. My bridesmaids were creative and way ahead of the curve. Not that I doubted. 
Paper Book Centerpieces
Wouldn’t these be awesome on a small table for book club or a library themed wedding or a fairy tale birthday party? It would be hard to cut up a book, but the results are amazing. {via Geek Tyrant}
Urban Bright
I love these colorful and girly manhole covers from Japan. It’s a perfect mix of hard and soft, sweet and tough. Strong metal and bright colors create a perfect modern look. These are amazing inspiration for me. I love rooms decorated with these same elements. If this were a party theme, it would be my favorite one. Urban bright, maybe?

I really love gold {no news there}. Think I can talk my hubby into this flatware??

My Signature Color
Remember Steel Magnolia‘s Shelby attest that blush and bashful are her colors? Well, that is how I feel about green. I started my love affair with emerald jewelry {my grandmother gave me an emerald necklace for my 18th birthday that I still have} and grew to love most colors on the green spectrum. Kate Spade and CB2 are some of my favorite brands, because of their amazing use of my favorite color. Sure, I love turquoise and purple, and many other jewels tones– but my heart always belongs to green. I’m so excited that emerald is the color of the year. I can’t wait to see the inspirations, parties, and products to come!

A Get Well Kit
We are taking a little break from the holidays today, with a little TLC– for others.
Do you know a ton of people who are sick or getting sick? I do. I don’t know if it’s the change in weather, or all the running around and socializing we do this time of year, but it seems like people are dropping like flies. So I loved this idea from Creature Comforts of putting together a little get-well-soon care package.
This simple but thoughtful collection would warm anyones heart– and throat. You can find a downloadable printable on her site for a lemon and honey mixture, but feel free to include any little goodies that you think would help the recipient. Some tea, an airplane sized whiskey, orange juice, nose spray, a magazine or dvd, a fuzzy bear to cuddle– I’m sure anything would be appreciated.
Remember to take care of yourself this holiday season!
