There is something about the act of tossing confetti into the air and watching it fall aimlessly to the ground below. This lovely image from one of my favorite blogs, Inspired By This, inspires me to decorate a floor with confetti made from endless color, size and material options!

I love everything about coconut so when I came across these coconut doughnuts on one of my favorite blogs Cannelle et Vanille, I knew they were much too scrumptious to keep to myself. Such a sophisticated version of the coconut gems I loved as a child!

If your mama was Betsy Burnham, your room would be this cool too. The technicolor palette and kooky accessories are masterfully tamed with soulful antiques and global influence. It’s youthful and feminine without being predictable or saccharine. Well done!
