doin a little work palm springs style.
here's an idea...
a magazine (heads up newell) needs to hire me to do a column where i fashion one moodboard in big money and then replicate it in real money.
and they pay me with money.
and then i spend that money on real cute lamps and shit.
and then a lion comes out and sings 'the circle of life'.
you would be way into that column wouldn't you?
my thoughts:
a cover we have already seen?
(love it though i do)
so does it matter?
if it hadn't been for the rehashed HB rooms in the pink section i'd have thought i was looking at country living.
though i loved this room:
but i hated the rest of this house.
i think it's weird when there is only 1 color (in this case red) throughout a house like it's a theme or something.
my brain does not understand this madness.
ruthie sommers's place is getting raves from all the blogger ladies.
myself included.
i love this room so much.
it made tiny hearts come out of my eyes.
those little bolsters are working me over.
BUT!
opposite of the aforementioned all red and white house,
this house's color spectrum was all over the place.
also i will be buying these for every lamp in my house:
what in the hell are your thoughts?
in the mail this morning...

Hey Jenny, Yes, it's me. Good luck with the audition. I think you've got a great chance/opportunity. The picture you shot for your portfolio looks really good. You've picked up on some photography tricks—like turn off the flash! It makes all the difference in how room photos look. I think your mood boards are also great to include...and of course samplings of MFAMB. Serious, I want to see you on this show! You'll add much needed spice.
pants=pooped.
thanks newell.
you are sparkley.
and another sneak peek:
t-minus 24 hours...
first:
i cannot thank you all enough for leaving comments in the last post.
my heart is full of brownie batter because of you.
now:
i have spent that last 2 days running around like crazy trying to spruce up my house.
apparently for this design star audition they need something called a..
portfolio?
so i have been adding, subtracting, borrowing, crying, worrying, freaking out, dreaming, and yes, of course..
farting.
i am nothing without my blowhole.
anyway...my little rental house has never looked prettier.
i spent a good portion of the day today trying to take pictures.
which was almost a complete wash due to the grayest of cloudy poopy days.
so i am back at it tomorrow.
this is all part of my
..portfoooliooo..
which will include my "work" (go ahead and giggle, i am)
here's a sneak peak of a spot the camera actually made love to ..
