katie ridder + playing catch up


billing, taxes, emails and wedding planning are catching up to me today so i’m going to head out early this morning to catch up on some admin work and coding some interviews that will run later this week. sometimes being a small operation catches up to me all at once and i’ve got to take a second to re-group. so i apologize for the brief time-out but hope that yesterday’s day-of-peeks will keep your eye candy needs met until tomorrow when i’ll return with an extra full day of content and some great diy projects.


until tomorrow, i wanted to leave you with these beautiful wallpapers from katie ridder that i saw on katy elliott’s website. i’m feeling this huge pull towards pink these days and these feminine prints are definitely calling my name. click here for more information and to view katie’s full collection.

Grace!
No worries, take a well needed break! You are the most committed blogger I have ever come across. I never leave your page disappointed that you have no new material… You are an inspiration to us all. Congrats on getting married. Keep it light and always remember to have fun!

Great website! I’m so inspired. Thursday I’ll be paying a visit to the local thrift store… I need to find that sideboard that I can restore. Especially after seeing all your inspiring pictures. So happy I found you website! towe.

The joys of self employment – chin up, treat yourself when you’re done and I’m look forward to the next content shower. I couldn’t keep up the consistency of posting you do and I admire it greatly.

I’m all over the block printed vibe in these lovely wallpapers – I’m going to India on thursday and will hopefully see some in the flesh, fingers crossed.

I agree with Rebecca…I ALWAYS see something new on here, even when you “skip” a blog, which I haven’t seen so far…I am so envious of your job and wish I could be you for a week or even a day! So glad I asked you about the spray upholstry paint, am now going to make my existing color palette work with the gold sofa as it is.

Because of you I’m visiting Savannah for the House & Garden Tour this March. Just what I needed after a winter of shovelling — and rooms that need a shot of spring.
