Wouldn’t you love to walk into a bathroom reminiscent of an old apothecary every morning? I know I would, and I think I need to make it happen when we renovate our little bath. Those labels alone get me every time. Although, I must admit, the toothbrushes are not going to happen, I’m much too spoiled by the modern crazy cleaning power of our Sonicare.

This little art project is definitely happening! The only question is where to display it, the vanity would be a natural choice but it would be terribly romantic in the bedroom, no?

You can take a girl out of the psychology class, but you’ll never take the psychology class out of the girl! I’m feeling a love of all things inkblot lately, I suppose the sight of them makes me nostalgic for my student days spent deciphering body language tapes, trying to decide which people in my life totally had the psychiatric disorder du jour, and telling Freud jokes (“…when you say one thing, but mean your mother!” ba-dum-dum)
And speaking of inkblots, the first time I was shown a fake blot (only actual patients and licensed shrinks ever see the real set, very top secret those) I was diagnosed with “watching too many Disney films“. Which I did not, but that blot absolutely looked like Fievel Mousekewitz!

A few things I have my eye on this month! I’ve already acquired the Audrey 100 book and I haven’t been able to stop staring at the gorgeous photos. (Audrey never disappoints does she?) The bubblegum paperweight on the other hand is probably a bit unattainable but that doesn’t stop me from imagining it on my desk in my daydreams.

It’s obvious that I just need to move into one of Aerin Lauder’s homes since I fall madly in love with all of them. (I can only imagine she would be one fantastic, not to mention stylish, housemate.) This room in particular makes me weak in the knees. A fireplace, a wall of leather bound books, and a table with a little sunken bar. Can you imagine a more perfect room for cozy cocktail parties, or long romantic evenings? Everything about it just screams old Holywood glamour. I honestly can’t stop thinking about how to make this happen in my own home.
