Hellobee

I’ve always loved that Sofia Coppola looked at Marie Antoinette through a modern lens when she was making her eye candy filled film in 2006. For a while I’ve been thinking it would be fun to do a nursery inspired by the infamous queen with the same approach. The result? A feminine room with ornate [...]

Hello, everyone! Sorry it’s been a while – it’s taken me two weeks longer to be “hands free” than I imagined. Our little lady is quite a snuggler, and only likes to sleep being held, meaning limited blogging time for Momma. We’ve finally been able to make the Baby Bjorn work for her and it’s [...]
