This past week Emma and I started working from my home two days a week. It's a nice change of pace and suki (our pug) loves it too! I took some quick snapshots of things I've been loving…. color, new watercolor sketches and making sun tea on my porch.
Today Jeremy ripped the carpet out of my soon-to-be closet. We are going to paint the wood floors white and I should be able to set it up by the end of this week! I'm so happy that our little house is becoming a home. XO, elsie

I do like those watercolour sketches – paintings or dresses? I agree working from home is quite the change of atmosphere – perfect for summer 🙂 I am curious about ‘sun tea’: a big drinker of black tea (well, I am English!) I have not really got into drinking my tea cold/iced. I do like the sound of sun tea though – it must be very refreshing on a hot day 🙂
Sweet! I love the watercolor sketches. So beautiful. Summertime sun tea is simply delightful, too!
I would buy those watercolor pieces. I love them. I need to take an art class, because I would love to create pieces similar to this. But alas! I am seriously challenged in this department. = I love admiring your work though.
wow, those watercolor sketches are so cute. Hope to see them in your next dress/clothes line 🙂
Your studio looks so fun! Love the watercolors, and sun tea is a summer must. <3
Oh I sure hope you are going to share tons of pictures of the setting up of and final product of that closet! I can’t wait. 🙂

I’ve been dying to paint our master bedroom hardwoods. The mister is adamantly against this. Do a post on your floors to help me convince him otherwise!!!!

Oh, so wonderful!! I want all of this stuff in my house! I hope to see some peeks of this wonderful closet…i’m sure it will be lovely since everything you do is just scrumptious anyway! 🙂

That’s so exciting. Newly wed, newly made up home. It’s a perfect summer for “new” 😀

I love white painted wood floors. It reminds me of cape cod. I’ve never been there but thats what comes to mind.
Will you be sharing pictures of the finished projects?!?
