Being someone that sees art in nearly everything, any given day finds me taking from 1 to 100 photos. A few weeks ago, I captured the photo above and could not wait to develop it. I will be doing a matte border around it soon. I was actually so inspired by the image that I could not wait until it was complete.. I had to develop and frame it. STAT. Seriously. The print both inspires and soothes me. Having such a passion behind images you capture offers a religious experience time and time again. I'd really have no part of the walls in the loft visible, because the urge to see that which captured my attention, mind, and heart would be on full display. Narrowing it down to favorites is never ea

This week, Marci is back from enjoying her birthday week, and she's discussing fall foliage, as well as House of 303 merch.

So, guess what I did last Saturday? It has something to do with the decorations on the vanilla candle pictured here. Yep, that's right (even if you weren't trying to guess!) I took a pressed flower decorating course. Approximately every two months, members of the Denver Botanic Gardens receive a guide discussing upcoming art that will be featured in the garden, courses, and events. After taking up space on the kitchen table for about a month, I finally dedicated an afternoon to thumbing through the pages and marking the dates of events that were of interest to me on my calendar. I set this particular course date to notify me two days beforehand. I shrieked with delight because I'd forgotten

Well, well, well. The picture below features the closet of a busy girl that crams her clothes into the closet, a myriad of rainbow colored hangers, and outfits lost in the shuffle, aka not seen from season to season, as they've literally been lost in lack-of-organization. There's a vest in there that I did not wear at all last fall.. because I could never find it. Ohhh, look who got around to color coordinating the clothes! Two thumbs up, (if I do say so myself!) This neutral loving girl indeed has an overabundance of grey and black in the closet. Trust me, I'm not complaining. I spent this past Sunday afternoon color coordinating the closet, and removing about 30 pieces that I no longer wea

Having your own skincare line is wonderful. Being ahead of the trend, constant stock of your favorite items, and the joy of creating products that can increase ones self esteem and overall quality of life brings a sense of fulfillment that you would not believe. Over the years, I had to get to a point where I realized it was okay to still love some of the products that originally caught my eye as a 14 year old.. the products within the folded over Harpers Bazaar pages, the alluring containers that they were in, and the overall way that each product made me feel. For the last 10 years, I've made a stop to Sephora the month of my birthday to pick-up my awesome little gift, which this year is t

It's no secret.. I'm a foodie. Like so many of us, my life is crazy busy.. and even if I'm not going out to a restaurant to dine, I still love to have mouthwatering meals, preferably without using the whole day to make them. Lol. Shrimp has been the seafood of the moment around these parts. Seriously, I've been wanting it everyday for some reason, so I made a stop at the local market and bought a pound and a half of shrimp, and let my creative juices flow. Rock Salt Cracked Pepper Shrimp You'll Need: a pound and a half of shrimp (shell off) one half cup cracked pepper two tsp rock salt one half cup basil leaves one lemon half two tsp olive oil On a medium low setting, warm olive oil.

For the vlog this week, I spoke of going on the hunt for a new boutique. However, I've chosen to write about a favorite bookstore of mine and its meaning.. beyond the books, stationary, and beverages. I discovered City Stacks while on one of my morning strolls in the city about two years ago. A lover of an awesome read, I was beyond thrilled to find this new bookstore, and the staff.. so sweet, so knowledgeable, so personable. I fell in love instantly, and could not wait to bring my husband in to see my new favorite place. Since that morning, I've been in a number of times. Be it in search of a new book, just stopping by for a magazine and a beverage, or simply to say hello to the wonderful
