Oh so sunken.

We think that these sunken-in living rooms, also known as "conversation pits"

need to make a comeback, and soon!

Eero Saarinen designed this one.

All you need is a fireplace and a shag carpet.

Teen pit.

We love the pops of yellow in this one!

5 lamps in a row above this carpeted pit.

Pill-shaped lamps.

The trick is in the pillows.

Dreamy circular pit.

We've got baggage.

I have a habit of packing for a trip approximately 2 weeks ahead of time, and even though I am taking a backpack on my honeymoon, it got me thinking about dream luggage.

Our mobile vintage shop - Olive the trailer!

Meet Olive!

She is our 1956 Cardinal, and we bought her last spring!

Keep an eye out on this section to see sneak peaks as we tear her apart and then bring her back to life, as our mobile vintage shop! She will be stocked full of vintage clothes, housewares and other knick knacks and will be open for business by early summer. She's already gutted and ready for a face-lift, we will have more pictures and details in the coming weeks! We are so excited to put our ideas into motion, (literally!) and hope that you will follow along in the journey!

Parisian honeymoon.

As Erin prepares for her honeymoon in a few weeks, it got me thinking back to mine. My husband, Emery, and I got married just over a year and a half ago, and we went on an amazing three week honeymoon in Europe! Neither of us had been before, so we decided to travel to a few different countries: France, Spain, Italy and Malta. We had the best time and took about a million photos, here is a little preview of a few! More to come later..

Love, Stef
