Project Backsplash


Yesterday while attempting to waist valuable time I happened upon a fun website called Apartment Therapy, where I found a posting for a woman named Zazazu who is relying on the world to complete the backsplash in her newly revamped kitchen. This ambitious idea comes with a plea to anyone who has an extra tile or two to send it to Zazazu and once she has accumulated enough to cover the empty space between her counter top and upper cabinets Project Backsplash will be installed.

SO do it! and do it now! Because I am eager to see the end result of this project! I'm a little emotionally torn with this DIY. It could go either way. Hopefully for Zazazu the end result is a beautiful mish mash of creativity donated from all over the world but there is an obscenely good chance that this eclectic backsplash could go horribly wrong and look nothing short of vomitous. There is a very dark part of me that is hoping for the later of the two choices. I secretly do love a complete design catastrophe.

Have a tile?

Deceivingly Innocent


For anyone of you whom may have been here before, it's obviously no secret that I love to shop on etsy.com. There are just so many fantastically wonderful things hiding away, waiting for my lustful eyes to find them and take them home with me. I recently found a shop called La Drama Queen of which I have not been able to stop obsessing over since. If I were not very pregnant at this exact moment there would be next to nothing holding me back from buying everything that Tanie Marie, the designer, has to offer. At present my most lusted after design is the Absinthe one piece bathing suit. Quite simply put it's pure sex in an deceivingly innocent package. I must have it.
