Look Linger Love

I’ve had an interest in learning how to knit thanks to my Granny (she makes me such pretty blankets). But I haven’t felt a hurry to learn. I mean, I don’t need to knit until I’m a Granny, right? Well after seeing The Knit Kids’ shop I’m a little more motivated to get on that hobby.

And with leather shoulder patches – kickass.

Well we’re about a week and a half out from our move in date. Excited doesn’t even describe it. Though I am dreading the whole move aspect of it, we’re going to love our new home and neighborhood. I’ve been snapping pics the past few weeks. More progress has happened since a lot of these but still want to share!

Our bath. I die. So happy with how this is turning out. Many have asked. This tile is from … Home Depot! Special order, but Home Depot.

Someone is super excited about her pink bathroom vanity. I am too, I admit it.

And Lilly has a pink room too :) Color is Pink Chablis.

Hard to tell, but that there is cascading marble. It’s sexy.

And a little pot filler action.

We’ve had such an awesome building experience. Our architect Heather Wilson (aka THE living with kids beautifully expert) and our incredible builder Bart Beasley (he just gets it, is on time and on budget, always calls me Ma’am, and whom Lilly affectionally calls “Bart the Builder” with a sing song voice) were a freaking dream team. Dream team. Couldn’t have been happier.

It’s not only shiny new products that get me excited. It’s their branding, packaging, and full on identity design that gets me going too. And Charleston just so happens to be home of one of the very best of the best design companies in the country. Stitch Design Co. comes to life every day in what I consider to be one funky and cool space on Canon street. And I dropped by last week to chat with the ladies behind the award winning team.

Remember how I mentioned that it’s face melting hot here in Charleston right now? Well the skies have been gracing us with rain which has given us some cooler evenings. Yeehaw. I snapped this while walking downtown a couple of nights ago. Even our sidewalks are gorgeous. Just saying.

Like I said over on Camila’s blog, I’m not so much an effortless style kind of girl. By this I mean that I put a lot of thought into my spaces and wardrobe. But everyone has a few pieces they can mindlessly throw on that make them feel like the cat’s meow. Here’s one of mine.

Do you know how freaking happy I would be to see some LLL readers represent in there??! If you think you can compete, go check it out.

I know my posts have felt random lately (at least to me). I’m feeling rather scattered. More on that later perhaps. Maybe summer brain. But happy weekend, Everyone! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I plan to. I promise I’ll get a house update for you next week! I know I’m late on that.
