Things that Inspire me (Link Time)

This young house and its inhabitants are pretty impressive.
This young couple has not only remodeled their old little brick house into a stunning (see above pic) home but have managed to create a business by doing color consults for less than $50 and online design services (I imagine on the affordable side too) They show really simple but beautiful easy to re-create table settings and as if all that weren't enough have some killer housetours (like this gorgeous little white house)Now meet Meet Leslie

I don't know her in real life but she is a photographer a mom and an amazing semstress. The lovely aprons you see above can be purchased in her Etsy Shop for a song. The one I'm wearing in the previous post was made by me (because I wanted to make a slight change--and apparently these days I'm super cheap) But for the trouble they caused me--just buy one for less than 30 bucks. Leslie and her sisters make the cutest things (and kindly tell you what patterns they use) Check out their blog--it is seriously insane the dresses this girl has made.
Oh and bonus simplicy patterns are .99 cents at Joann's starting the 11th through the end of the month.

Also--I've gotta run so links to come but I also just discovered two other awesome blogs-- Angry chicken (all her tutorials and her awesome menus on one sheet thing) and LIttle birdie secrets which has a great tutorial for an ironing board that you roll up. ◦

Totally love that kitchen! Proves that you can have something really nice without a huge house.
