I love the instant old world charm a typewriter brings to any room. The subtle gesture toward days gone by creates a an at once romantic and wistful vibe, an ideal quality for any room. I dream of having the perfect home office–a heavy dark wooden desk, a couple of simple mason jars filled with pens and pencils, a stack of books, a small vase filled with zinnias, and, of course, a vintage typewriter. However, I can’t ever seem to find the right one, and instead have amassed a variety of typewriter-related items–a typewriter frame, typewriter jewelry, typewriter stationery, the list goes on. . . I doubt I will quench my thirst for typewriter paraphernalia until I find that perfect one!

I love the look of masses of mismatched frames all crammed together on one wall. It works best, I think, when the interiors of the frames vaguely match one another, like the collection of framed embroidery below. After visiting the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin–which has the most beautiful maroon room stuffed from top to bottom with a huge array of portraits–I was inspired to create a similar wall, jam-packed with amateur portraits. I’m building my collection now, hunting in antique stores, flea markets and street fairs, and will be sure to eventually post the final result!

For some reason, this summer seems to be a particularly huge season of weddings for me. The few I’ve been to so far have all been magnificent, and I know the rest will be just as moving. But with all these weddings, I can’t help but think about the next step: the babies to come! I found myself browsing through our baby shower invitations, and I was suddenly inspired by our Little White Bird invitation. I love the subtle colors and details, and realized a bird-themed baby shower could quite possibly be the cutest party ever. So, without further ado, here is the inspiration board I have come up with!
