print love

we have finally gotten around to hanging a few things on the walls of our little nest. just in time to renew our one year lease, i might add.

side note: i've been asked a few times if we plan to buy a house here in florida, because well, houses are extremely affordable in this neck of the woods. but our answer remains: we don't know. first will come marriage, then we'll think about a house with a baby in the baby carriage. and maybe not even in that order!

back to the walls. i've combined a few DIY pieces, with a few prints i've collected over the years. i've taken pictures and posted those on instagram because i am obsessed with instagram. i've received quite a few questions about where i bought this or that. so here it goes:



chicago bean via: etsy


i'm so happy print - via etsy



(without the terrible shadow)

portrait by anna rifle bond



 french fried potatoes - thrift store in chicago


state prints - chicago's renegade craft fair
(but the designers have a website now - here!) 

a&p via hobby lobby (and spray painted gold) 

a million congratulations

i would do absolutely anything to still live in chicago.  so patricio, polly, and i could walk a few short blocks, with a bottle of champagne in my longchamp, and celebrate spring break style because....

JOHN AND BECKY ARE GETTING MARRIED! 

a million congratulations really are in order for our most favorite neighbors and our dear dear friends, because this perfect pair is making it a forever kind of thing.

we love you guys, and are over the moon happy. 
xoxo.
