DIY Nursery Letters

February 22, 2016September 26, 2013

DIY Nursery Letters created by April Erhard of April Golightly

We received a sample of Lullaby Paint for review purposes only. All opinions are our own.

I wanted my daughter’s bedroom to have a customized feel, but did not want to spend a fortune buying letters. I have seen them cost from $10 to $60 a piece. Making them custom from the craft store is much cheaper. Since Camilla’s name is so long, there was no way I was going to spend even $10 a piece. I spent less than $2 per letter for this DIY project, and I have craft supplies left over to do other projects.

Girl Nursery Decor: Gray and Pink

February 22, 2016September 25, 2013

The Baby’s Room is finally done! It has been a long time coming since Camilla is just over 2 months old. My inspiration started with the pink and gray bunny sheet from Crate & Barrel’s The Land of Nod. I then ordered paint baby safe paint from Lullaby Paints in Cotton Candy and Slate for the Chalkboard Wall.

Outfit for Brunch at First Watch

November 27, 2018September 24, 2013

First Watch is an amazing breakfast spot that I frequent. I recently tried their new fall menu and wrote a review about it on my new food blog, Palm to Park. The Floridan French Toast is my favorite! It is a sourdough French toast with wheat germ and powdered cinnamon sugar, covered with fresh banana, kiwi and berries. Doesn’t that sound amazing?! Brunch is one of my favorite meals, and I adore dressing up for it. The best part of brunch is getting to wear a day time dress. Day time dresses are truly my first loves in fashion. When I first came to Miami, I had no idea what to wear to clubs. I actually wore a Sunday Brunch dress to a hot club on Lincoln Road. The dress was made of a white textured fabric. I wore it with a light pink snake belt and matching pink sandals. It was a very Lilly Pulitzer look. My good friend from law school never lets me forget about my Sunday Brunch Club outfit and brings it up often. His wife is probably reading this and knows exactly what I am talking about. I love them both even though they poke fun at me more often than not. 😉

MANIcure MonDAY! Nuance Salma Hayek Red

February 22, 2016September 23, 2013

Fall is around the corner and I am loving this Rococo Red nail polish from Nuance Salma Hayek. The color reminds me of the amazing red lips that were all over the runway this fall. Nuance Salma Hayek is only sold at CVS stores. The pictures with yellow background is where I painted 2 coats. The color of the polish is much deeper than the bottle. With one coat the color is lighter than in the bottle. Great price at $5.99 per bottle. I like both color so I cannot complain!
