How cool are these painted stones by California artist, Marisa Redondo? They'd make such a perfect little gift.

::Project ReStyle // bohemian love fort::

I wanted to do something different this year for J. Instead of fighting the crowds at fancy restaurants, I knew I wanted to do something at home. Thanks to Justina of Compai Design Studio, I found this awesome fort idea a couple weeks ago and couldn't wait to build my own. And, it was perfect for Project ReStyle because I didn't spend a dime {except for wine & dinner} and used everyday items from my house.

Materials: 1 sheet, 2 curtains, 1 sarong, 2 scarfs, 1 bamboo pole, 1 blanket, vintage table runner, jute twine, 3 hooks, 10 metal clips, end table, hanging ceramic candle holder, crocheted snowflakes hung with clothes pins, every pillow I own, candles, wine + glasses, strand of feather butterflies, candelabra, vintage ottoman w/ random decorations, and pretty Lasater flowers in a vintage milk jug from J.

The whole project was so much fun. I was worried that it'd be a complete disaster-- something catching fire as the whole fort collapsed. However, all emergencies were avoided and it was the perfect setting for dinner, wine and missed episodes of Modern Family and The Office via Hulu.

And then we fell asleep...in the fort.

::because everyone needs one of these::

In lieu of heart-shaped boxes of chocolates, give a unique vintage gift-- because no one should be unprepared for February 14th.

What do you mean you don't have a Sexometer?

::the L word::

The blog world is filling up with pinks, reds, chocolates and lovey-doveyness. Though far from my favorite holiday, I have the perfect Valentine's Day idea up my sleeve for J (we'll see if the execution goes as nicely in real-life as it is in my head). However, in preparation, I thought I'd share my favorite vintage valentines.
