Instant Replay: April 2013

May 1, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

Went mod. Admired the first signs of spring. Enjoyed a clear day after weeks of rain. Spent an afternoon at local watering holes. Finally found the perfect pair of pointy black flats. Scooped up a pair of floral shorts. Went to Milwaukee for an overnight getaway. Visited the Milwaukee Brewing Company. Giggled my way through Mindy Kaling’s book. Adored a surprise bouquet of daisies from Dave. Wore this necklace a lot. Pulled out a few springtime accessories. 

I’d love to keep in touch with you on Instagram! You can find me at @bedknobsandbaubles.

Reminder! Win a pair of bangle bracelets from Sequin!

Day Trip: Milwaukee

August 4, 2012 by jessica Leave a Comment

We’re headed to Central Wisconsin today for a wedding, but I’ll leave you with snapshots from last weekend’s day trip to Milwaukee. After purchasing this dress and this painting, we enjoyed Milwaukee’s brewing history. We toured the Milwaukee Brewing Co. (the best $7 I ever spent and a Grover sighting) and celebrated our heritage at the German Fest. Prost!

At Home

Most of the time I leave a consignment store with dirty hands and dust-covered trinkets that weren’t worth the trouble, but every now and then there’s a hidden gem.

On Saturday, a friend recommended that we stop at Legacies in Milwaukee. The store looks small from the outside, but it manages to pack items in every nook of the building – and 70% of it is beautiful. I moved aside a cherub-adorned print (part of the questionable 30%) and discovered this beauty behind it. It’s four feet of nautical perfection. It’s the piece. I wasn’t exactly sure where it’d be displayed (and I still don’t), but it wasn’t staying at Legacies.

And that’s when I realized just how small my car really is. We tried to slide the painting through the trunk, tried to angle it, even considered tying it to the roof, but there was no way the painting was going to fit in my Honda Civic … not with the large, gaudy frame anyway. I freed the canvas and tossed the frame in a dumpster. Classy.

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!
