Featured Friday: Jenna Sue

Today I am featuring the home of Jenna Sue. She is a graphic designer and her work hangs all throughout her house. Here is what she said she loves most about her home: 

"What I love most about my home is the sense of accomplishment I feel from transforming empty spaces into rooms I love. We knew nothing about home improvement when we moved in and I'm so glad we've gained new skills and experiences we can take with us to our next home." 

Enjoy!

Spring Living Room

I'm in the mood for a pretty feminine and spring Living Room today. How about you? 

sofa | butterfly art | gold pillows | striped pillows | coffee table | rug | chair | bookshelf | Brass Floor Lamp| brass animals | succulents | picture frame | floral vase | green box |  Penguin Classics  | artificial flowers | rhino | glass balls

The inspiration comes from this vintage butterfly scarf. This scarf is 41" which would make it an incredible art statement in any room.

I also adore the soft floral pattern on this world market chair. 

I LOVE this pillow by Goods By Grinn. I may have a slight gold obsession. 

I love pretty floral prints and lots of pink in my rooms. But how many of you could get your husbands on board with a room like this?

My Review of the Quinny Moodd

Strollers never looked this good. 

I was recently approached about doing a review for the Quinny Moodd stroller and I jumped at the chance. Although we have two kids I find that I am constantly using my single stroller. Jett is old enough to want to walk most places and single strollers are so much easier to cart around. 

The Quinny Moodd is a dream. Like literally it's the stroller of my dreams. 

We all know that the white aesthetic has taken hold of all facets of design, and doesn’t look to be going away anytime soon. In fact, the hottest color for spring may not even be a color at all! The trend is even sweeping baby gear—earlier this year high-end car seat and stroller providers Quinny and Maxi-Cosi launched the White Collection, the first juvenile products available of their kind. 

I feel like my baby Jane looks extra cute in this stroller. 

It's also extremely easy to assemble, (ask my husband) and way easy to use. 

It flips easily from front to back facing and even lays flat for naps. 

It also comes with car seat adaptors that are super easy to insert. It also has hydraulics that make it easy to unfold. I kind of feel like it's a stroller from the future. 

The handle bar extends smoothly with a simple push of the center button. 

Mothers do yourself a favor this Mother's day and get yourself this amazing stroller.

Last Week's Links

If you follow me on instagram (@kirstenkrason) you have a good idea of what I was up to last week. The best news from last week is that we finally started decorating our new playroom.  We built a lot of the furniture and painted a chalkboard wall!! It's so pretty and black I almost hate to start drawing on it! 

Here are some of the other links I was loving last week. 

1 | I love this mini house tour of my friend Bri's home. Such great style. 

2 | Need help arranging pillows on your sectional? Look no further than here...

3 | Easy peasy mother's day craft for kids. 

4 | This idea is so adorable and I can't wait to try it with my kids this summer. 

5 | I love this rocket party so much I might throw one for my own birthday this year. 

6 | The happiest spring scarf. 

7 | If you don't read the painted arrow you should. Amazing blogger who comes up with beautiful free printables all the time! 

8 | This shopping cart would be such a hit at my house. I'm debating on getting it for my playroom. 

9 | This swim cover up is to-die-for. 

10 | Why not stencil some cool chalkboard designs on your walls? 

11 | These should be your new measuring cups for summer!

Simple DIY Mother’s Day Planter Gift

I have another great printable and DIY idea for you Mom today from Sarah. She has come up with the most adorable planter idea for Mother's day. The printable can easily wrap around your planter and really personalize your gift! 

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Mother’s Day is just a couple weeks away and like many of us, I want to show my mom

how much I appreciate her. If you’ve already given your mom flowers, bath products,

and chocolate in Mother’s Days past, here’s a new idea—gift your mom a potted plant in

a festive, up-cycled container!

All you need to do is download and print out the label of your choice then follow these

simple steps:

Supplies:

• Small house plant (I choose this succulent because they require virtually no upkeep

and do great indoors)

• Metal tin (I used a metal tin that a cookie mix came in, you can also use any type of

metal can or you can purchase a similar metal tin)

• Drill and large bit or a hammer and nail

• Handful of large rocks, used for drainage

• Potting soil

• Printable Mother’s Day labels (download below)

• Printer

• Scissors or paper cutter

• Double-stick tape

1. Gather all the above supplies.

2. Drill a hole in the bottom of the tin to allow for drainage. If you don’t have a drill, you

can also use a large nail and a hammer to punch a hole.

3. Place some large rocks in the bottom of the tin.

4. Add the potting soil to the tin. Remove the plant of the container it came in and place

it in the tin. Add some more potting soil around the plant.

5. Print out the label of your choice and use scissors or a paper cutter to cut it out. If

necessary, trim it to fit the metal tin. Use double-stick tape to adhere the label to the

metal tin. Now you’re ready to give it to mom!
