my new obsession: Pinterest


Are you the kind of person who keeps saving your favorite blog and website photos to individual little folders on your desktop? Then, 6 months down the road, you don't remember where you saved it from, then begin an endless search to find it's home? Well, Pinterest has come to your rescue. Not only can you save and organize all of your favorite photos : from decorating, food, quotes, paper inspirations, entertaining, etc, but you can see what others are posting and share in their interest! Today was a day of the ultimate Monday blues and I needed some major inspiration - this definitely did the trick! Just click here to follow me and then follow anyone that suites your interest - the photos will start flowing in like a status feed on facebook. It's candy to the create eye! Here's a screen capture of my current loveliness... 

New emma j design Brand: Pediatric Dentistry of Savannah

I've had the pleasure of working with Cara DeLeon and her fabulous concept for a pediatric dentistry practice here in Savannah. Not only is she uber talented but such a motivation in watching dreams come to life! Her practice is now accepting new patients to schedule an appointment for your little ones today! Cara wanted to go with a pirate theme for the practice so we accepted the pirate ship with ric rac waves. The interior of the office even has these ric rac stripes on the walls - so adorable! Check out her branding board below along with her new website I designed: www.pediatricdentistryofsavannah.com.

this week's favorites : home decor

Moving into our new home has inspired me to explore new home decor finds. Here are a few things I've had my eye on - some I might implement, some I love - just because.

loving anything painted/faux bamboo - really coveting this for our dining room.

Might have to purchase this for the guest bedroom and pair with sky blue and lime green.
But then again, I love this to from my favorite person, kate spade.


we have two bathrooms with existing wallpaper - not really my style so thinking about this or this for the powder room:

 

this is on it's way for the livingroom

this in on it's way for my office


my hubby can vouch that we don't need more china so this is just because I love it:
