Canopy of Streamers

Love the canopy of streamers at this wedding, in fact the whole wedding was darn right adorable. You can see the rest here on Once Wed. Event design by Ashley Meaders.

Inspiration 7.27

Lake houses conjure up a lot of bad images for design-lovers -- plasticky attempts at a log-cabin feel, wall-mounted talking fish and "memorabilia walls" from the T.G.I. Friday's school of decorating.

I really hate seeing hokey-"fishing widow" decor in a lake house because it seems like such a wasted opportunity to go for a more quiet, sophisticated look where the view provides all the wow factor you need. Simple furniture, a muted palette, candlelight...

I promise you won't miss Big Mouth Billy Bass...

Confetti System Pinatas

I never thought I'd feature pinatas on my blog, but here we are. I think these pinatas from design duo Confetti System are too cute. In fact, I kind of think they are too cute to break! Outside of celebrations, I could definitely see them in a kid or teen's room. (And yes, they are for sale on the website)
