Lilly’s Playhouse

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

img_18311I get this question every once in a while about Lilly’s playhouse. “Is there really a Lilly’s playhouse like the design you offer?”

Actually, there is.  It’s a dreamy escape for any little girl, but the tween Lilly is enjoying it more as a retreat from her parents, especially when friends come over.  “It’s a place to go that no one can hear us,” shared Lilly with me, with a giggle.

She has it fully equipped with electricity which lights up the inside with twinkle lights and the outside with Christmas lights, which Lilly feels should be kept up all year long.  It also keeps her refrigerator running so that she can serve cold drinks to her friends. (Don’t get any ideas here, it’s apple juice, I’m the one who fills it).

There’s an IPod for the ever necessary tunes to play a little Hannah Montana, High School Musical or other necessary sounds anyann_lillyshouse_text1 tween enjoys.

 The design of Lilly’s playhouse was originally just for Lilly, but I’ve found that lots of people like Lilly’s playhouse for notes.  We have sent some very creative moving announcements using this design as well as house warming parties and baby announcements like the one shown.

It’s the playhouse I would have dreamed of as a child. A place to go that’s quiet and my own.  Maybe I should consider using it while she’s at school!

Here’s a sneak peak at the inside!img_0262 Yes, there’s even wireless service…

Spring… here at least

Sunday, March 1st, 2009

Earlier this week, I spotted my first sign of spring.  It was a mini daffodil, just outside my window.  I know other bulbs are sure to follow with their springtime smiles. These bulbs were a gift to me, from a far away gardening friend.

Now that spring is so close, you can surely order some of our geranium fold over notes for corresponding with your friends. I don’t need to remind you how important keeping in touch with friends is… do I? Writing a note can take less than a minute and put a smile on the recipients face all day.  Don’t have anything to say, just start writing, you’ll be surprised what comes out of the pen.

There are some beautiful fabrics with flowers and thankfully, color seems to be making a comeback.  This is a lucious piece from Brunschwig & Fils that would be pretty on a sunroom chaise.
