A Better Way to Find Art

Print Society, a better way to find art.

The Graduate

'The Graduate' is one of my all-time favorite films, and this particular scene is SO aesthetically up my alley. I want to use this as the inspiration for an entire room some day. The black and white striped awnings, the vintage "bar" sign, the lush green back-drop that almost looks jungle-esque.


Director Mike Nichols sets up each shot as if it were a painting, creating a composition that exquisitely propels the story forward.


Little known fact: The famous legs in the movie poster belong to Linda Gray, aka. SUE ELLEN from "Dallas".

My Etsy video!

I was honored when Etsy asked if I wanted to do a Halloween episode with them. We had a bloody blast making this for you, so I hope you enjoy our Dexter-inspired 3D blood spatter video! If you do, please comment and spread the Etsy love around.

Corinne and I shot this entire episodes ourselves, as we do with all of our episodes. Be sure to watch the 2nd half, and hopefully you'll see why we are especially proud of this one.

DIY Mirrored Back Splash

In this episode of Decor It Yourself, I take our dark and dingy sink area and give the back splash a face-life. Again, bringing a new technique into the mix by cutting mirror and tiling it with mastic. Us ladies can do it all! Oh, and a vintage Ghostbusters tee always helps.
