#baubleoftheday

May 14, 2014 by jessica Leave a Comment

If there’s one thing I adore more than my own jewelry collection, it’s seeing your gems on Instagram—and I’d love to share them on the blog! Tag your jewelry photos with #baubleoftheday and @bedknobsandbaubles​ (so I can find it later) and I’ll post a roundup showcasing a selection of your beautiful baubles. I’d love to do it weekly, but we’ll shoot for monthly until this catches on!

It’s pretty obvious that I’m anxious for warm weather, considering my Instagram is overrun with flowers and nautical stripes. What can I say? I know what I like. Here are a few of my favorite March moments:

  • Adding a pair of trendy pearl earrings to my collection
  • Purchasing a bouquet of tulips, my favorite flower
  • Wearing this Gerard Yosca necklace with just about everything
  • Springing for a gorgeous vintage cocktail ring
  • Working on an upcoming April collaboration with Gerard Yosca—there’s even a giveaway in it for you
  • Splurging on a pair of Tory Burch shoes that match almost everything in my closet…
  • …and loving how they look with this Emma McKinstry necklace
  • Swooning over a surprise gift from Meghna Designs
  • Arranging a vase full of daffodils

Mini Moments

March 3, 2014 by jessica Leave a Comment

It’s depressing to go through my photos and realize that we barely left the house in February, but it’s even more of a downer knowing that we were shut-ins in January too. Until it’s warm enough to leave the house, here’s another month of at-home highlights:

  • Making the most of a sick day in banana-print pjs
  • Purchased two pairs of printed flats for spring: stripes and banana leaves
  • Kept the cat company
  • Dressed up in a lovey-dovey print
  • Picked out a new lipstick
  • Wore mint and black
  • Added a pair of botanical-print shorts to my wardrobe after The Great Closet Cleanout
  • Splurged on a classic black satchel with a portion of my tax return (the rest is earmarked for our European vacation)
  • Celebrated Valentine’s Day in the best possible way: beer, pizza, and the prettiest bouquet of flowers

I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bat I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bathroom and thinking how lucky we are that we were able to do this! It wasn’t always easy to navigate the stressful moments, but the end result is worth it. I feel like I’m at a luxury hotel every time I shower! (And it sure beats showering with the spiders in our [basically unfinished] basement bathroom. It was like camping in our own home for the past six weeks — and I very much hate camping!)

More photos to come!

My NCAA bracket was busted within the first few ho My NCAA bracket was busted within the first few hours of the tournament, but there's a much more fun one to take part in: a bagel bracket with @bantambagels -- and you can win a month's supply of the winning flavor! There will be a daily matchup on their Instagram stories each Thursday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday now through April 5. Each vote in the daily face off is a chance to be one of five grand prize winners! My vote goes to Everybody's Favorite, an everything bagel stuffed with veggie cream cheese.

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye ... to So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye ... to this bathroom. Demolition on our upstairs main bathroom starts today! I love old houses and #OldHouseThings, but this bathroom's prior renovation clearly isn't part of the original home -- nor was it done well. A leak from the bathtub into our kitchen on Easter 2020 kicked off our plans for the renovation and it's finally coming to fruition two years later. The prior damage wasn't caused by leaking pipes (although we just replaced all of the old galvanized pipes with PVC plumbing to futureproof the house); it was from water pooling on the edge of the tub after a shower and then spilling over the side onto the floor. As we discovered, the tub isn't level (nor is the toilet) which caused water to flow over. I'm sure we'll discover plenty of other water damage as our contractor's team starts pulling everything out and I'm so excited for the peace of mind that will come from getting everything in tip top shape. 

Today is also the day that fixtures will be installed in the half bath! There's a short punch list of small things yet to do in that space, but the finished product is right around the corner!
