Wall Flowers and Lollypop Trees

It was brought to my attention after the post on the short one’s room, that I have not provided a post on the smallest one’s room. She arrived 20 days early with a pop and a surprise so we had to finish up after she was here. It is pretty cute and so I am happy to share. I love the deer art on the wall by Larkspur Studio’s there is also a fabu piece on the upper shelf by Fort Guerin. The couch is a re-covered vintage piece and the rug is from IKEA it is called LUSY BLOM.

It started as Mid-Century Mod . . .

So the day started out with baking of cupcake and cookie “blanks” to build the sugar fun. We decided it would be a mid-century modern house of a Hollywood producer with a dog named Princess. We were thinking 60’s party scene with cocktails, a turn-table, records and so on. Once the cutting of the shapes and the frosting began the look kind of quickly turned a bit more Flintstones. We had a lot of fun though! What a great holiday baking day!

Hotel Wow

I was at the Renaissance Hotel in Glendale, AZ on Friday for a convention. I was totally excited by the colors at this joint. So many pretty orange goodies everywhere. The carpets were my favorite with a sort of modern twist on Art Deco. Plus this girl can’t resist all things orange and pink – makes me happy. My next post will be about the event at the Renaissance – patterned papers galore – yum! Stay tuned. For now enjoy these pics of the hotel.
