Girl power is in the house.

A post that's short and sweet. In honor of girl's night tonight, some super girly gear to celebrate the occassion and offer ideas for making your space fit for a night of gossip and gab. Whatever your style, try to incorporate at least one thing that reminds you of your female besties and favorite feminine characteristics.

Bang, bang you're home.

After my co-worker saw the zoo and farm themed stuffed animals my friend, Jen, and I had made for our friends' babies, my co-worker asked about making some cowboys and indians - the theme for her sister's baby shower she is hosting in April. I have to admit, I was planning on skipping out on a posting but royally screwed up the indian and decided I needed a break. I do think however, that cowboys and indians is the most adorable baby shower theme. I love the whimsical, playful and contrasting nature of the theme and was inspired to check out to see how grown ups could incorporate a little bit of the familiars. Here's what I came up with.*

*As always, I never condone "themed" rooms. Elements that hint at an overall idea can be sporadically placed throughout a room to add a sense of cohesion and balance.

Other ideas to incorporate that little bit of playfulness into a room include hanging a bright, silk bandana on a hook, adding a horseshoe to a bookshelf or finding some great artwork to use as an accent on a shelf or on a mantle.
