Recently I've had lots of reader requests for daily life photos. So, on Monday I toted my camera around for most of the day and took some random snapshots! It was lots of fun. Enjoy!
Driving to a lunch meeting with Emma and Rachel. Here's a little peek at a color story for an upcoming project we're planning.
We met up at Aviary and worked our details for our next project. Doesn't my sandwich look yummy? It's cheese and apricot preserves.
Emma's crepe. So pretty!
"Buy yourself flowers that make you gasp…." Love it!
On my coffee table at home. Love these. Oh, and in case you were curious, my store is closed on Mondays so this is my day to get a lot done at home and run errands.
Mail! I love it. These boxes were full of glasses and sunglasses we ordered for our local shop. I'm trying some on here.
Prepping photos for my blog (and eating watermelon). When at home I love blogging in bed… it's the best!
Pretty things. I've been on a cleaning and organizing kick this week. Nesting in our newlywed home!
OMG… Mr. Larson sanding the floors in my future closet room. He was covered in dust for most of the day. This was an all day project (actually all week… I just started moving in last night). It was so much work, but I'm thankful that my sweet husband spent so much time helping! I can't wait to share the finished room.
Making sun tea. It's the only thing I drink at home besides water. Peach, mint, raspberry… I love tea!
Well, thanks for peeking at my day. Next time I'll share a day when I'm at work because Emma wants to be a part of it too! Hope you are having a very lovely day, Elsie

So fun! I’d love to spend a day with you! 🙂
Ahaha! That picture of Jeremy is priceless.
This was lovely! Filled with color and delicious food.
XOXO
blogging in bed is the best, I totally agree! (just wish my bed was not in the basement, it would be tiny bit nicer :p )
Great post! I really enjoyed watching the pictures 🙂
What exactly is sun tea? Sounds interesting. 🙂
Your lifestyle is definitely one to be envied…food, friends, fun, and FOOD!!! You eat well, you live well…love this collection! Beautiful images!

What a fun post and how sweet of your hardworking husband!
This was such a great post! I loved looking at all of these cute photos! This is definitely the type of post I could look forward to every week. xo!
1. that owl pillow behind the crepe! omg.
2. a dusty mr. larson = lol.
3. i haven’t made sun tea in ages! how fun!
its all wonderful! I love that owl pillow too – cute!
I love to blog in bed, but instead of watermelon I snack on grapes.
is your nail color the new opi ‘mermaid tears’ — i’m wearing it right now OBSESSED
This was such a nice little break from my workday. Thanks for sharing! That photo of the “Sand Man” made me laugh!
Love them all but that photo of Mr. Larson is amazingly awesome. I can’t wait to see your closet. I know I’ll just die of jealousy. We live in an old house that has these funny closets in each room where the ceiling slopes down. They’d be great play spots for kids, and they’re huge, they’re just so low to the ground that you can’t get in them unless you’re on your knees. *sigh*
that looks like a really wonderful day!!

I just brought new glasses exactly like the ones you wearing, I must say they are super cool 🙂

Can’t wait to see your closet lady!

What lovely photos! Aw, I can’t wait to get married to my fiance and start nesting! Eek.
I love these everyday photos! The watermelon and crepe look so good!
I was also so excited to see your wedding featured today on the wedding blog “Style Me Pretty” 🙂
Your husband is awesome! I wonder if I can convince my husband to do the same to my studio…
adorable. i love when we get to see people’s ordinary/daily tasks–you can really get a feel of who they are!
That watermelon looks great! I have heard that refinishing wooden floors can be quite the task! It takes forever, but once you get it right, the results are soo worth it.

Cute! Looks like you had a lovely day!
You’ve inspired me to do a post about my friend’s and my little nightly adventure – thanks!
LOVE this!! You should make this a regular feature! Also – you should share some sun tea recipes or how to’s. I don’t know how and it looks yummy 🙂
All of your photos are really awesome but mostly…
Men covered in sawdust are HAWT.
Mmmm… that crepe looks delicious! And LOVE the vintage Seventeen mags. So fun! 🙂
Oh, my! That’s a very funny pic of Jeremy, hehe.
Have a fun day! 🙂
holy molly! i just realized your husband is one of my favorite musicians. I think the internet just got a lot smaller for me. lol
Lovin’ all the color! And your day looks like it was mighty nice! :>
Your photo posts are always so great 🙂 I’ve never made sun tea before, maybe I should give it a go.
so wonderful! and what a good husband…excited for you and your closet room! sounds dreamy already! 🙂 -Lo
emma should do her own too! :]
I miss these kind of posts too. Thanks Elsie!!! I could barely recognize Jeremy with his hair like that. I cant wait to see your new room.
Yum! My mom would ALWAYS make sun tea when I was little!
Emily @ http://aestheticallyemily.blogspot.com/
Jeremy looks EXACTLY like Adam Goldberg (love him, 2 Days in Paris) in that photo! What a beautiful day.
I loveee this! I really love being able to get a sneak peak into people’s lives. Your day looks absolutely lovely! I can’t wait to see a glimpse into your work day <3
omg emma’s hair is blonde again!
I’m a bed blogger too!!! We should start a club.
great life 🙂 yummy food!!! great post

get that boy a mask! seriously, he was probably kicking up some nasty particles/chemicals and we want Mr Larson to be around for a long time!!
We <3 this day in the life post and can't wait to see more! Blogging in bed is hands down the best. 🙂
How do you make sun tea?? I don’t drink anything at home other than water and herbal tea too, but I always make my teas hot and that’s no good on hot summer days. Your sun tea looks so yummy and refreshing 🙂
Oh, I love the Seventeen magazines. I have been able to collect some, and I actually remember that Twiggy cover from when I was “seventeen”! ( Guess that dates me back a bit!) Colleen Corby was my favorite model and she was on many of the covers.
Thank you for sharing your slices of life! Wishing you and Mr. L. all of the best things!
love those colors on that sneeky peek 🙂 also, love the nail color, what is it? thanks for sharing a bit of the everyday…it’s always fun to see.

Adorable photos! I have been on a huge watermelon kick this summer, so refreshing! Thanks for letting us have a little peak into your daily life 🙂
The picture of Mr. Larson is PRICELESS! 🙂 At least now you can see what he’ll look like when he goes gray! tehehe!
That first photo makes me want some watermelon 🙂 And your colour story leaves me intrigued for this project you speak of. Great post!

Lovely photos! Your day looks lovely, and full of the nicest kind of busy-ness.
Can I just say your blog honestly is such inspiration for me and my own blog. I love your use of simple photography in all your posts.
I have a hefty stack of old Seventeen magazines, from the early 70s. They are all cut/torn up and lots of images were used in collages.
Oh, I love these peeks into your day!! I hope you blog them more often. 🙂
3 things
1. Where did you get that adorable shirt?
2. What kind of cheese is with the apricot preserves?
3. Can you give specific detailed instructions on how to make your sun tea?
