Happy Friday everyone! After a big week of recap posts, I’m ready for a nice and relaxing weekend – or as relaxing as possible with an active toddler around the house. This weekend we’re hoping to take Sophie to pick strawberries for the very first time! She has been very interested in the tiny potted plants in our back yard, so an entire field of strawberries should be a big hit. I’ll be back to share the last few recaps from this year’s National Stationery Show next week, but in the meantime…

This bridal shower from Brittany might be the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen

Loving every detail in this home tour

Calligraphy lettering with watercolors

A birthday countdown calendar – such a fun idea!

Three kinds of advertising

I love the idea of turning photos into large scale prints
