Doors - what do they mean to you?

“The doors we open and close each day decide the lives we live.”
- Flora Whittemore

We were on the front page of Etsy

I love the bright color we were in the midst of. The big bold block decal is one of my favorites. It can be done in 3 colors like I've shown it, or it can be done in a single color to create an accent wall.

We've joined the $4.00 club

My husband recently read an article in a financial magazine about the $4.00 club. I'm sure you all remember when gas prices hit $4.00 or more/gallon. Well ,we all made it through those days, driving less maybe but we made it. Now that gas has dropped back to the $2.00/gallon range....we've joined the $4.00 club. All that means is when we gas up, we calculate what we would have spent at the pump if gas was still $4.00/gallon and we put the difference into savings.

Working on a few items for a custom request

I went ahead and loaded these here after having some trouble uploading to Etsy. Not sure why I lost the color during the upload but the original images were in pink and black...they lose a bit of impact with the purple and grey.

2009 color pallet

We'll be adding a few new colors as the seasons change . What colors do you see yourself adding to you home decor this spring and summer?

customer photo

I love to see how our decals get used once they get in the hands of our customers. This photo came from a customer in Norway who order the bare tree and birds set. I love how she worked the extra bird in on the far wall. Thanks to Karianne for sharing.

Sweetheart Necklace

Another fun Etsy find. I love the designs put together by Aster Sadler. If you want to check out more of her work you'll find her at Etsy.

Lunch Sacks that are TOO cute

Shopping around I came across these super cute reusable lunch sacks at http://www.artandphilanthropy.etsy.com. Who wouldn't want to take a lunch to work or school with reusable bags like these? They make such a fun fashionable way to brown bag that lunch. If you get a chance stop by her store and check out her other designs.

We are working in the design studio again

I just listed our new ballerina decal on etsy tonight. We're just getting started in the design studio again and hope to get new decals listed all week long. Keep checking back to see the new additions to the circlelinestudio collection.

With all the gloom and doom in the news each day

I was inspired to create a new decal that reminds us of how fortunate we are in life. We take so much in life for granted that every once in a while we all need a reminder of what we have and how lucky we truly are. I designed this decal as a reminder of how fortunate we are. I have an incredible husband, 3 great kids and a beautiful home. We are truly blessed. I hope that this decal fits with many of you as well.

Looking around for something new

Looking around for something new and fun. I've been on a tote bag hunt lately and there are so many great designs out there. It's fun to see the variety but so hard to pick just one. If you've got a favorite designer I'd love to hear about it.
