nate berkus, you would be so proud...


i had a dilemma involving the whole 
"guest-bedroom-slash-nursery" conundrum.
had to fit it all in one room and still feel 
like it wasn't too much of a baby room or a guest space.

i think we did it.

member how i was going to make a quilt?
well i did.
{though my mom had to help me get it quilted... 
being that i was having a baby and all...}


i love the prints, they turned out so stellar.
thanks angie, for the "i am a child of God" print.


and as much as i love this finished space,
i still can't wait to do real things in a real house...
sigh.

i HEART conference


watching conference was inspiring {as always}
but when cc came home from priesthood meeting 
with a great quote from pres. monson's talk, 
i just wanted to make something. 
get it out of my system, if you will.

"choose your love, 
love your choice."

i listened to his great talk and notice's that a handful of others talked about love too.
it is fun when a different phase of life causes you to hear new things...
we heard a lot about marriage and love, but a lot about being parents.
it made for a happy day at the clifford house.
you can listen to all of the talks here.

so, in honor of my future bedroom redo,
and a current trend that i happen to enjoy,

gray + yellow subway art for our love room.


and i love it.

hurry future,
we need a house!

dear future,

i was recently introduced to my new favorite thing,
maybe in the whole world...
pinterest...

i have been busy putting together ideas and organizing my lists of ideas and things i want to do and make... oh if i had this so long ago!!!

cc always talks about all the things he would make if we were in a house... {being that he is toolman taylor and needs only the space to use the 100 tools he owns...}

i have wanted to redo our bedroom in these colors for.ev.er. but i didn't think he would like it {slash} we can't quite do it until we are in a real house...

i showed him this foto of the most perfect room idea and he said, "i can totally make that!" yes.

yes you can... {devious voice}

so now i can't stop dreaming of all things i want to to do in my house someday...
{hopefully this year.... but probably not...} 

i will have to keep you posted on the fun things i find until i am able to act on my homey impulses. for now, check out my pin boards if you want- cause its the new addicting thing to do...
