Remember the white ceramic deer I stole from our apartment’s attic before we moved? The little guys I drag out each Christmas, even though they’re of dubious taste?
Apparently I was on to something. If you liked them (and you may be in the minority on that), you can now buy your own! Lucky you.
Available at Pottery Barn and Ballard Designs.
She’s the Prince. And that costume too waaaaaay too long to make!
I think she looks pretty cute, even if you aren’t familiar with the Katamari games. Of course, if you’re confused you can visit the official Katamari website (fair warning: there is music), or consult the all-knowing Wikipedia. And then there’s always YouTube (na na na na na na na na na, Katamari Damacy).
Happy Halloween!
Brandon and I finally finished decorating the house for Christmas. We were thinking about getting a real tree again (last year’s was so pretty), or maybe a big white fake tree, but we ended up using the little silver tree that we already had. It’s cute, just a little too small.
Our white ceramic deer made an appearance again on the buffet, this time surrounded by silver ornament garland (picked up on sale at Pottery Barn).
We don’t have a fireplace, so we hang our stockings on the built-in buffet.
And again, because we are lacking a fireplace mantle, I decided to decorate the TV stand.
There are those twee little reindeer again.
The paillettes that were in our old apartment are back out on display.
And I couldn’t let the sequin balls go without use another year, so I put them on my desk. They’re a little ridiculous, but they make me smile.
Tis the season!
Jules warned me that my taste would change. Whimsy, sweetness, and cutesy… it will all be irresistible to me now that I’m with child.
Is this proof? Would I have seen these pre-pregnancy and thought “meh, too twee”? Especially since I couldn’t get them to stand up and instead placed them in tiny little chairs? I don’t know, but I sure do love them.
