Many of you ask me what my home looks like! I always respond "like Alice in Wonderland lives there!" And yes......it's all from Lula Mae with the exception of our furniture, my husband, all of our cats, and of course Lily our dog! The rest is from Lula. If we break it, it is adopted by me! I thought it would be fun to finally show you some pics! Thanks for looking, I hope you enjoy all of Lula's tchotchkes as much as I do!
Living Room
My favorite Print by Papaya!
Living Room
Wall of Papaya Giclees and of course Bethany Lowe from every Season! In our house it's always Christmas, Easter, Valentines and Halloween!
Living Room
Yes, that's right! Blue Q's Instant infant! Our cardboard child is now 4 years old and has not aged a bit! Nor do we loose any sleep or have to worry about a college fund! All he requires is a change of scenery now and then! I am embarrassed to say we have not agreed on a name! Any recommendations?
Living Room
My dear friends/customers Jana and David were shocked to find that we took our Christmas tree down each year at home, but keep them up at Lula year round. Jana explained that they leave there huge black tree up for every season and decorate it accordingly! "HOW INSPIRING" I thought! I give you our year round tree! The ornaments are mostly from Lula Mae, with the exception of some vintage angels from Grandma! Why not put the tree back up and just say no to days without celebration?
Dining Room
tchotchkes!!!!! From Bethany Lowe dolls to Snoop Dog! This bookshelf brings a smile to my face every time I pass by! It's not clutter, it's whimsy! The trick is to not spread them all over the house, but categorize them! Small objects, large, Halloween, etc!
The dining room
As many of you know, Colonel Cupcake took a bad fall last year at Lula. He no longer has a back, but he does have a happy home! I figured why not leave him out year round! Cupcakes are always welcome in our home even in the form of a giant nutcracker!
Kitchen
Im sure you recognize the prints, but have you met Latte Lucy? Created by Deborah Scotch! We have her for sale at Lula and I could not resist! I don't know how I would function without my coffee, Latte Lucy looks as though she feels the same way! I love that she has wings and is ready for the day! The canister set is also from Lula Mae!
Kitchen
Oh, Jennifer Conniff, why do you tempt me so! I adore these handmade creations! This is my collection so far. Although we did just receive a new shipment, so the wall may still continue to grow! They are in our kitchen on the way to the back door. I think they are so encouraging and a wonderful reminder of all things good when stepping out into the world!
Kitchen
Ephemera magnets continue to be our best seller! I am one of the purchasers! I would love nothing more then to sit down to lunch with these Seattle based masterminds! If you are ever in need of a good laugh, stop in during lunch and read the magnets on our wall! I swear your day will turn bright in an instant! WARNING: If you take life too seriously this may not make for an enjoyable lunch break!
Kitchen
Ladies, Ladies Ladies!!! To the left I give you complete organization and the key to saving $ at your grocery store. To the right I give you no more arguments with your significant other on the subject of To Do's. This checklist saves marriages! It also puts the role of nag right onto the paper pads shoulders! Life savers I tell you!
The Den
My husband and I used to burn through a candle from Lula in 3 days! That is until a little kitten by the name of Minnie Mae came in to our lives. (Minne Mae was named after Lula Mae's sister)
Minnie Mae with the same taste in candles as yours truly, and no fear in her heart, simply approached my Voluspa candle and smelled it......while it was lit! It was not a pretty picture when her little whiskers said bye bye! The whiskers have since grown back, but Minnie and I decided on a no burning policy in the house! I am still obsessed with candles so I have them on display in our home! Hilarious!
The Den
Cody Foster Soap Stone Antler Set! A beautiful addition to white walls! We are absolutely not hunters, they are just so whimsical!
The Guest/Mom's Room
We refer to this room fondly as "mom's room" because I am lucky enough to have my mom visit at least every three months, and we rarely have other guests!
I purchased these Tattoo Dolls for my husband when we moved into our new home! I am happy to say that we now carry them at Lula! They are designed by local artist Spitfire Girl! They are great as a decorative pillow or in a cute basket as seen here! They also look like my husband and I as most of you know! They are sharing a basket with two of my favorite BlaBla dolls!
The guest/mom's Room
Halloween is one of our favorite Holidays at the Christensen house! This is a Halloween shrine containing Bethany Lowe items from the last 6 years! They are all damaged, or as my hubby and I like to say "have personality"!
The Guest/Mom's room
Lego IPOD dock from Lula, a snow and graham post it note set, Frog tape dispenser, and of course more Halloween items. So much fun!
Thanks for visiting my home! I hope you enjoyed the partial tour! If you would like to email me any pictures of Lula Mae in your home please email me at lulamae@lulamae.com , I would love to see!
I LOVE YOUR DAILY BLOGS! I READ THEM TO MAKE ME SMILE EVERYDAY.
