Sanctuary Design Studio

I have been virtual shopping again, this time for furniture. My champagne taste is so out of line with my box o' wine budget (don't partake in the beer).

I would like to waltz into  Horchow, pay cash for my living room sofa but I'm clutching my pearls at that price.

Enter Sanctuary Design Studio...




Stunning custom furniture at reasonable prices...just what the doctor ordered.

They can make almost any piece of furniture you desire. My heart is set on the tufted sofa from Horchow's and instead of that crazy price of $3,200, I could pay around $700.00 and get it make to my size specs. How great is that!?!? 

Maybe I can get one of these made too,


for my dressing room.

First Comes Love, Then Comes Marriage, Then...

Nope, there's no bun in the oven but there is ALOT of preggo friends and family around me these days. So naturally, my attention (slightly) has gone to all things baby. There's so much out there that wasn't around when I had my daughter.

I remember my first sonogram and how excited I was to know the sex of my unborn baby. I waited patiently as the sonographer tried as she might to give me a determination. But alas, it was not to be as the baby kept it's legs closed. I know now, that she was such a little lady, even back in utero.

Fast forward to yesterday... I saw a commerical for a product called IntelliGender. This at-home gender perdiction test can be picked up at your local Target and it can (supposedly) tell you the sex of your baby at 10 weeks! Really? Wow!



Isn't that interesting?

Here's the commercial:


I think it's a cute novelty and I would probably try it. Of course, still having a sonogram at 20 weeks or so.

What's your take on this advance in science? Has anyone tried it? Would you try it?

Bakerella, Ella, Ella, Eh!

Congrats to Bakerella on her new book, "Cake Pops". What an outstanding achievement, from blogger to book author!!


I remember when I was planning my wedding, I had planned to make these but ummm, that didn't happen. I thought they were so cute and totally customizable. I was ambitiously thinking I could come up with a Pucci inspired Cake Pop. Too much work, too little time.

So, while I didn't get to make them for my wedding, maybe I can make them for the upcoming baby showers I will be hosting.


This video clip shows how simple it is to make them and now I'm totally stoked and will try my hand at making them this weekend. *off to find lollipop sticks and candy coating disc-y things*

Who Says You Can't Wear White After Labor Day?


I love these looks and they are totally on my radar for rockin'.

RHONY

I have never watched an episode of Real Housewives of New York but chile, if it's as funny as this cartoon, I may have to tune in.



Watchers of RHONY, what say you? Is it accurate... a little?
