Kitchen Accessory

The kitchen remodel is coming along pretty well. I've been working on getting the cabinet doors put on and tidying up the rest of the kitchen. When washing dishes I noticed that there was no real convenient place to put the sponge, so I did me some etsy shopping. Here are the two I like the most. This first one is by Extrudergirl. I really like the color of the glaze. It looks like it would match our ceramic serving pieces. Also the price is rather great at $12.
This second one is equally great. The pear is such a beautiful color and would add real character to the kitchen. Only set back is the price is a bit more than the first option. This lovely handmade pear is $38. Made by sarasgallery.

Bath Design with a Natural Twist

I really like the simple details of this shower curtain from Anthropologie. Unfortunately I could never justify spending $118 on it. Instead, I will attempt to make one of my own.
Since designing our house renovation, I've realized I really like to have natural materials as often as possible. We have grey slate in the master bath, linen style fabric for the shower curtain and small window curtain, and I have big plans to have natural reed wallpaper in the hallway. Keeping with that theme, I think these buttons from etsy would be so perfect for my shower curtain. I think my husband would like to attempt to make some for us, but if that doesn't go well I will most likely be ordering some of these.

Perfect PostCard Calendar

I am totally enamored with this DIY journal project from Design*Sponge. You keep the calendar going for several years. Each day writing a little tidbit about what happened that day. And as the years go by, you'll be able to think back on what was going on that day 1,2,3,4 and so on years ago.
You can find the tutorial here.
