I am a firm believer that the front door is the eye to your house (or something like that). It is an easy way to make a statement, and really set the tone for the rest of the house.
When I started putting my house together, I was very conscious of how I arranged my entry way and I waited to do the door VERY last. Literally everything in my house was painted and (mostly) put away before we even began to discuss the front door because I was so excited to make a statement with it.
Here are a few of the doors that I have found that I am OBSESSED with!
What do you think of the front door?
Have you painted yours a fun color, or would you? If so, what?

10 OF MY (RECENT) FAVORITE ETSY PRINT FINDS
I troll around Etsy quite frequently. Whether it is intentionally- or I am lead there from Pinterest or another part of the interweb. If you have not already been exposed to Etsy, consider this your wake up call and GO NOW!!!
I have so many different lists and favorites on there, and I am surprised that Hank (my mailman- yes, we are on a first name basis with each other) does not deliver more packages to my house than he already does.
Anyways, since am on there so often, I have found some pretty awesome prints- and decided I needed to pass them on!
Enjoy and have a great weekend!

MODCLOTH ROUND UP
OK everyone, you know how the story goes, you're doing a bit of (light?) online shopping, checking out that same dress you've already looked at a million times, and then after your lusting is over, you move on with your day. Only to find that Google seems to think it's necessary to remind you around EVERY TURN about that dress you're dying for.
My particular least favorite is scrolling through my Facebook news feed, getting that oh-so-familiar pop-up: "Look what you found!" Thanks, Modcloth. I know. I'm the one who found it. I've found it ten times already, but I can't afford it yet. Or I feel like my wardrobe isn't ready. Or I'm not sure it'll be my style and I need to read 50 more reviews or wait until someone else in my size buys it and reviews it!!!

But I definitely don't need a reminder on every site that Google posts ads on, just following me around the internet!
ANYWAY, because of this very thing just happening to me in my FB newsfeed, I'm going to share some things I've been "haunting" over at Modcloth. They'll make it into my closet someday. I swear... So enjoy, and maybe you can have the same problem as I do
First, for WORK:

INSTAGRAM EYE CANDY!
Since last time when I posted about a few of the Instagrammers that we like was a success, and people seemed to respond pretty well... I felt like maybe I should start to make it a new thing... Thoughts?
I know I am always looking for new and interesting things to feast my eyes upon. From featuring things like our 'Artists Watch' feature to posting on our Pinterest to our very own Instagram account- it might be pretty evident that we are pretty visual people...
Anyways... here are a few more Instagram accounts that we have been feasting our eyes upon lately, and can't get enough of.
1: Britt Bass: A very talented young artist- her Instagram is filled with her work and her inspiration.

FALL COLORS AROUND THE HOUSE
Everyone loves fall colors. They're bright, but warm, and help to usher in that horrible cold winter with it's bleak blues and whites. I know there is still a tiny bit of summer left, but I wanted to share some of the fall colored inspiration that has been sparking my interest these days. I'm into everything ranging from clothes, to home furniture, to more temporary seasonal pieces. I like things that remind me of fall often, but can also look great year round.
These adorable vases I found on Etsy would go perfectly on a dining room or breakfast table, and could be mixed and matched to fit a variety of seasons.
I love a piece like this that can really create a focal point in a room, but not overwhelm because it's a relatively simple and small table. It's also bright red, so I pretty much love it. Thanks overstock.com.
A bit more themed than some other items on this list, these jars are somewhat subtle but a fun Halloween decoration.
This duvet set is in a nice fall hue, but would still look great through summer as well. And the design would definitely be helpful for people like me who don't always get their bed made right away. It'll hide wrinkles well :)
Everyone loves a colored Kitchen Aid, and I'm no exception. This color is more unique than some, without being too bold or clashing with most kitchen designs.

Modcloth never fails to deliver in the comfy department, and this sweater/sweatshirt fits right in. Sometimes they have some pretty cheesy names for their pieces, but the airport cardigan is most aptly named. I can totally imagine being extremely comfortable in a plane, particularly in fall and winter in this item.
