I don't have words adequate to describe how much I love these tiny dresses from Etsy shop all the numbers. Pretty sure that top one is going to haunt me for days and weeks to come.

Mantle Style
The top project on my list right now is decorating the mantle. I love the idea of a collection of items grouped together on the mantle. Here are some of my favorites:
I will certainly be using this idea come summer when all my roses are blooming. (The stipulation being that I don't kill them in the meantime).
I really, really love the fresh clean look of assorted clear jars and the colorful blooms.
Three amaryllis together look so lovely with the rest of the tone on tone decor.

Put Some Spring in your Bling
I'm back, and a little delirious, as evidenced by that awesomely cheesy post title. I'm so sorry for running out on you last week. But now I'm back and re-energized, thanks to a really, really great girls weekend in the City with some of the closest friends I've ever had. We haven't seen each other for a year and a half. So as you can imagine there was plenty to catch up on and more laughter than I thought humanly possible.
Despite the rain, it's starting to look like spring is around the corner--thanks to the surprise daffodils blooming in my yard and the gorgeous new spring collections popping up in stores. Here are a few new jewelry items I've been preoccupied with lately. Hope you had a good weekend!
Clockwise from top left: cara couture bracelet, banana republic earrings, juicy couture ring, lauren bracelet, kate spade earrings.

Charlotte's Room: Shopping Guide
Thank you for all the nice things you said about Charlotte's room. I had such a great time putting it together, and I'm looking forward to doing the rest of the house. :) I actually had a lot of questions about where I get everything, etc. so I thought I'd just share all my sources here.
- Furniture: Bassett Baby
- Bedding: PB Kids
- Tree Decal: Byrdie Graphics
- Stuffed Turtle: PB Kids
- Stuffed Giraffe: Target
- Tissue Poms: Party Poms
- Bird Mobile: I made it with this pattern using Amy Butler fabric.
- Clock: Twelve Timbers
- Bicycle Print: Hillarie Tasche
- Flapper Prints: Flapperdoodle
I think that about covers everything that wasn't made by me or my family members. I've got a few more projects lined up for this room, so I'll keep you updated on my progress. But next up: I'm taking on the mantle in the family room. Keeping my fingers crossed that it turns out well.
Have a great weekend. Hope it's filled with lots of love.

Cookie Break
If you recall, one of my New Year's resolutions was to try a new recipe every week. I believe we're roughly six weeks into the year and I'm still going strong. Only one of those recipes has ended in complete disaster; and that's simply because I was feeling a little overconfident in my culinary prowess and got a little fancy with the recipe. :) Barring that one mishap, everything else has only been OK...until now. My first utterly share-worthy cooking adventure of the year: Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies III from allrecipes. Really, really good.
***And for those lucky members of my Treat of the Month Club: guard your mailboxes...you're not going to want to share these with the kids. :)

Have you seen this?
I'm dying over this paintable beadboard wallpaper from Land of Nod. Brilliant.
Now the big dilemma is what color to paint it.
