Look Linger Love

I’ve been cheating on ya’ll with another site. And while I’d love to keep all the juicy bits & bobs that I get over there to myself, I’m all about sharing the love (that is what this ol’ blog is all about anyway).

So with sharing in mind, I’m excited to introduce to you, Charleston Grit.

Okay, so we’ve all seen my current master closet. Well in the new house I want to switch up the style. I’ve done the custom built in look and it’s really pretty, but I’m definitely leaning toward a more eclectic look this time around. Here are a few of the closets that I’m using as inspiration…

Sliding ladder…

And glass cased goodies…

I just love all of these rain shoes. Think outside of the norm, don’t cha know??

As many of you know I turned 30 last month. My birthday party was so awesome and I’m really thankful to Josh for working so hard on it (like 40 trips up and down the stairs and making a ton of lavender simple syrup). It was at my friend Sally Benedict’s studio and the space was incredible for a party.

We tried to keep things pretty easy and just had some appetizers passed around (like Callie’s biscuits). And we set up the bar right on one of the tables Sally uses for her paint supplies. I thought it looked awesome. Here’s the only picture I have of it.

I’ve been rounding up prizes for Lilly and Fletcher’s Easter baskets. Fletcher (4 months old now!) is pretty much just getting pajamas and a book, but it’s fun to get more creative with older kids’ baskets. Here are some Easter bunny goodies that I think would make any kid (and parent) happy to find.

And I recently took the kids on a little picnic. I saw this adorable idea to fill plastic eggs with your child’s favorite snacks and I just knew Lilly would love it. It would be fun to incorporate an egg hunt with this idea too, but I didn’t have the resources to pull that off as it was just me and the kids at a park.
