Shake it off, Love is in the air!!

Shake it off!

Just when you're "getting down and out" about all of this snow, 

Valentine's day is the perfect excuse to spruce up your home and "shake off" those winter blues! 

We've rounded up a few cute ideas full of  romance and spontaneity, just for you! 

Parisian Pillows

La Carte, Knot Garden, and Lumiere pillows from Eastern Accents add the perfect touch of paris romance. Throw together these perfect pillows with some wine and fairy lights, and you've got yourself the perfect date night in paris. 

Kitchen Whimsy 

Fishs Eddy is by far my favorite place to find dish ware! These dishtowels have adorable ric rac ribbon edging, reminiscent of tiny doll clothes. The Heart cutting board would be a perfect platter to display your favorite cheeses, while the Admit One Tray holds your drink of choice. Pop in Roman Holiday or Love Actually, and you've got yourself a great night!! 

 My Funny Valentine 

These coasters from Etsy shop Bright Beam Goods are too funny!! Be a modern day John Cusack and present your love with these Misheard 80's song lyrics. 

Happy Valentine's Day from Lisa Davenport Designs!! 

Mad about Mad Men

So, I've been down for the count this past week with the flu. Laying on the sofa bored out of my skull, I opened up Netflix for some mindless entertainment. Having caught a few episodes of Mad Men in the past, I decided to start from the beginning.




Being a designer, I instantly fell in love with the authentic set design. The way that Don Draper lounged across a mid-century modern sofa, swirling his scotch, set my heart aflutter. Of course, I was more focused on the sofa.

These sofas, chairs, coffee tables, and lamps gave me flashbacks to my childhood, making me almost as giddy as a child riding on daddy's lap "driving" the car.

Here are some of my top picks from furniture designer Dorothy Knoll.

As much as I love Man Men and the enviroment that the designers created, I wouldn't want to be subjected to those gender roles!
