BEDROOM UPDATE

Just a brief update of the bedroom digs. Check it out. I like to keep a light, bright airy feel to the room. Perfect for relaxing in the afternoon and becomes beautifully moody by night. I realized I have all different types of metallics in my room, gold, chrome, and brass. I really think they all go together beautifully!

Thanks for reading, enjoy your independence day weekend!

HAMTRAMCK

Went on a little road trip to Detroit.  I have been spending time watching the youtube channel of adam the woo and realized he was in the punk band Guttermouth. I only live about two hours from Detroit and thought it would be a fun day tip to go out and see the show. It was literally the most fun I have ever had. Guttermouth was a riot. Before the show the boyfriend and I wandered around downtown Detroit, went to the casino ( a first for me). Ate at five guys (another first!). I can't forget to mention Hamtramck Disney Land; a backyard filled with folk art, curated by a Ukrainian man. It was really a site to see. Although this trip was done in a day it was an outstanding one. If you remember back to my list of 26 before 26, I had "visit Detroit" as one of my goals! I did it! With only one month to spare!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARLES

Happy birthday Charles Eames. He would have turned 107 today if he was still with us. Charles and Ray Eames are a huge influence on me and my life. Honestly, learning about Charles and Ray led me to my love for design and architecture. Not a day goes by where I don't think "What Would Charles and Ray Do" I often think of the video House: After Five Years of Living, all of the details and little accoutrements that the two of them put into their living space is purely superb.

I think often, we as a culture, stop paying attention to the details. I have been trying to find happiness is all of my little tasks and ventures. I am trying not to wish away my days anymore. If I am going to work I bring my camera or phone and take pictures along the way. I really think that if everyone slowed down just a little bit we would all really enjoy life a little more.

That is all for now.

L E L A N D

Took a trip a few weeks back with my guy and my family. It was a nice little trip to celebrate mothers day. We went to our favorite place, Leland. It is one of the most beautiful places. Leland was a huge part of my early life and will always be monumentally important to me. If you ever get a chance to drive north to Traverse City, make sure you make a stop in Leland.
