April Around The Web

April 30, 2020

After spending the entire month of April WFH and social distancing I’ve started to settle into a routine. Work has been busy and Spring has arrived in my yard and mostly I’m feeling grateful to be healthy, have a job, and have a home to spend this time in. Of course I miss seeing my friends and family in person but I had plenty of time to find some inspiration around the web this month!

Letters Are Lovely | April Around The Web

Atlantic // Pacific’s bright and cozy home tour caught my eye this month!
I still haven’t broke out our only puzzle but I’m considering buying one from this roundup
Several of my friends are about to have babies in the next few weeks and I love this idea to watch them grow!
Some beautiful Mother’s Day flowers!
An interesting read for these unprecedented times.

April Showers Bring May Flowers

March Around The Web

March 31, 2020

Hello, everyone! I hope you are well, what a strange and sad month March turned out to be! We were lucky to safely make it back from Costa Rica and shortly after that Kansas City went into social distancing full swing. I don’t know what April will bring but I do know that I’m thinking of everyone affected by Covid-19, especially New York City. And as a wife of a doctor I’m really proud of all the amazing health care workers. I especially loved seeing rainbows in Brooklyn as shared by Joanna of Cup of Jo – the three story rainbow window display by Linsey Laidlaw and her kids takes the cake!

Not only is Hallmark giving away 2 million cards to help us all stay connected, but you can download free coloring pages over on Think.Make.Share.!
Being home so much I’m in the mood to DIY! Not sure I have all the materials but I would love to make my own scrunchies.
Another quarantine activity on my list: a flower drawing challenge!
I’m also hoping to start reading more. Loved this book roundup and Carly’s friends’ favorite picks!
If you are feeling up to some Spring cleaning this is a great list (only if you are like me and cleaning usually helps me relax!)
You know I adore pasta, so therefore this guide
One thing I’m really missing is visiting Family Tree Nursery with friends. Might have to start propagating my plants, which might require these beautiful vessels!
And if I get really bored I might get around to cleaning my brass.
Pura Vida, Friends

November Around The Web

November 29, 2019

November has come to a close and I’m super grateful for another Thanksgiving spent celebrating with family and friends. This month was filled with new workouts (a bootcamp class and rock climbing), lots of actual work, Fiesta Friendsgiving and Girlfriendsgiving, the last of #My5Days spent drawing at Family Tree Nursery, and some holiday shopping. This month around the web I found lots of place setting inspo, how amazing would it be to use costume jewelry like this idea from A Fabulous Fete??

September Around The Web

September 30, 2019

September had lots of highlights including several trips to Fairway Creamery, a very extended work happy hour, a KU Football game, Hallmarket, and a bit of normal life in between. Work this month was also a bit of everything with some exciting projects for Christmas and Halloween plus a DIY that should be shared on Think.Make.Share soon! Here are some of my favorite finds around the web:
