Another Travel-Themed Nursery

ohdeedoh, which I wish I had found before our little one was born, has a tour of another amazing travel-themed nursery. I'm really happy with how our travel-themed nursery turned out, but I would have loved to see a few reference points like this one before we got started.

Downtown Austin West Elm and Etsy Event

I just found out about a little event crafty and mid-century design lovers might be interested in. West Elm, Etsy and abby try again are putting on We Heart Handmade Art, a one-day, pop-up event. And it looks like the lovely ladies of Spruce, a.k.a. the Spucettes, are going to be there as well.

Here are the details:

Mid-Century Austin Find: Vintage Gas Stove

It looks like this stove could use a little love and a lot of scrubbing, but it could be the highlight of any kitchen.

From the craigslist listing:

Beautiful 1950s white gas stove. We bought it for our kitchen, but it didn't work out for us. When I bought it, I was told it worked perfectly, but I never installed it. Very mid-century, very cute. It looks like a standard size that should fit in any kitchen.

Mid-Century Kitchen Remodel

You know how once you see something you start seeing it everywhere? That's how I feel about Stuart Sampley Design Studio.

I just got done writing about their A.D. Stenger Remodel when I see them in Apartment Therapy while I'm looking for mid-century kitchen inspiration for our eventual kitchen remodel. Check out the pics of their five-star rated kitchen remodel, in another A.D. Stenger home. (I wonder what they did with that Malm fireplace.)

The best part is they're in Austin, so when we get serious about our kitchen remodel we can actually use them, not just use their pictures for inspiration.

Mid-Century Kitchen Tile

We have big plans for our kitchen, which involves lots and lots of smaller pieces. Perhaps some of the smallest pieces are the backsplash tiles. I have a few favorites from modwalls:

The Hudson blend

And the Big Sur blend
