Double Dip A.Okay

This fun, colorful, (and germ free) appetizer is a great way to start off your next summertime

DINNER PARTY!

Simply pre-cut your favorite veggies

 and right before the guests arrive, plop a dollop of ranch in the bottom of individual dixie cups.

That way, everyone can double dip as much as they want sans the messy cleanup!

Mimosa Bar

This summer when you're having a Dinner Party (or breakfast party.. hehe..)

 try whipping together a fun cocktail display!

A little bottle of fizzy never hurt anyone ;)

Plus, summertime is the perfect excuse to play around with fresh fruit and bright colors!

I came across Amanda Nisbet's designs on pinterest and fell in love! I adore her use of color, texture and overall quirkiness!

Artist Showcase

Artist Stuart Haygarth installed picture-frame offcuts in stripes on either side of a marble staircase at the Victoria & Albert Museum this past September.

It may be old news to some, but I love the playfulness of the color!

Wouldn't this be epic in an office building or even in a home? Imagine looking at this on your way to get on the subway!!... You just cant help but be cheery...
