Valentine Gift Guide

February 6, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

I’ve been struggling with finding the perfect gift for Dave this year. (Between Christmas and his December birthday, I’ve exhausted all of my ideas!) Here are a few options to get you started if you’re still on the hunt for the perfect present (or just looking to treat yourself).

For Her

  • Dainty underpinnings in the prettiest shade of pink
  • A ring that’s lovely on its own or stacked with others
  • Dessert plates
  • A playful frock
  • Ladylike earrings
  • A quirky trinket box (preferably with gems inside)
  • Pastel flats
  • A bright card case

For Him

  • Rugged weekender (and overnight plans)
  • Sunglasses in a classic shape, but with an unexpected detail (the arms of these are tipped in orange)
  • An unexpected tie bar, like an anchor or the Chrysler Building
  • A belt perfect for weekends
  • An elegant slim wallet
  • Cologne in his favorite scent (or just one with great packaging)
  • Playful pocket squares

We spent the weekend in snowy central Wisconsin at Dave’s parents’ cabin. As much as I enjoy cozy evenings by the fire, I’m anxious for warm weather and the chance to wear my new shoes.

Bauble of the Week

February 3, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

I try not to post too many baubles that are beyond my budget, but this Kenneth Jay Lane necklace is too pretty to ignore. Besides, it would dress up even the simplest white tee making the cost-per-wear [almost] justifiable.

Instant Replay: January 2013

February 1, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

Toasted the new year with a quiet night at home. Started reading The Casual Vacancy. Enjoyed one day of springlike weather before the mercury dropped. Couldn’t resist conversation hearts. Wore a pair of amethyst earrings from Wendy Mink Jewelry. Brought out the brass pineapples. Adored a new pair of Stella Valle earrings and Estee Lauder nail polish. Upgraded our dresser drawers with new brass pulls. Purchased lobster-print pajama pants.

Wore a pink tourmaline bracelet from Julie Vos. Perked up my wardrobe with this orange necklace. Evaluated my spring wardrobe. Rewarded a successful Costco trip with a beer. Helped a friend pick out paint colors. Scored a copy of Things We Love. Wore that blue nail polish everyday since purchasing it. Dined out for Madison Restaurant Week. And, of course, snuggled with the cutest cat ever.

 I’d love to keep in touch with you on Instagram @bedknobsandbaubles.

Currently Coveting

January 31, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

Right now, I’m coveting:

  • The announcement that Milly is collaborating with Banana Republic this spring
  • Bright green onyx earrings
  • The sweetest set of pencils
  • Laser cut details on this clutch
  • Springtime stripes on a Tucker skirt
  • A monogrammed succulent planter
  • A ring that commemorates the day Dave and I met: 2/2 (it might just be Valentine fever that’s making me sentimental)

Snapshots from our recent trip to Philadelphia. Snapshots from our recent trip to Philadelphia. 

Everyone we met in Philly apologized for their gruff nature, despite no one actually living up to that stereotype. 😂
There’s nothing like having a vacation coming up There’s nothing like having a vacation coming up to motivate you to tackle a list of chores and deep clean the house.
It’s so nice to be home after a whirlwind week. It’s so nice to be home after a whirlwind week. We flew out to Philadelphia last Friday for a few days of exploring. It was our first time in the City of Brotherly Love and we loved every minute of it from the architecture to the restaurants, and most of all: the welcoming and friendly people. After that, we had one night at home before a flight to Denver to celebrate my cousin’s wedding. We got back to Madison late last night and have spent the day puttering around the house, getting caught up on laundry, grocery shopping, harvesting the season’s first tomatoes from the garden, and admiring just how much the hydrangeas have grown in the course of a week.
I always get a kick out of comparing views of our I always get a kick out of comparing views of our home today to the photos I took during our home inspection. (Swipe to see our main bedroom then!) While I knew the house had potential, it was hard to look past some of the owner’s “design” choices. Though, it looks like the room was destined to have a warm-toned quilt. 😂

P.S. @schoolhouse just released new colors of their popular Stillwater Floral Quilt!

And, for those interested, I’ve linked my bedroom items here: https://liketk.it/5iC8R

Back in December, we booked @therobeychicago for a Back in December, we booked @therobeychicago for a couple nights in the summer and our long awaited anticipation of lounging by the rooftop pool was finally fulfilled last weekend. It also inadvertently became the weekend I made Dave eat a cheeseburger every day, between @redhotranchchicago, @eatmottst, and @smallcheval. There are worst ways to spend a weekend.

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together.
