I had so much fun styling this photoshoot with La Vida Creations photography and Taylored Occasions. We were even featured on Style Me Pretty on Monday! The wedding shoot had an Americana theme just in time for the Fourth of July. I can’t wait to work with this talented group again.
My favorite scene was the horse wall (top photo) the horses were used in lieu of a placecard table. We also had a ton of fun with desserts and the cute animals at The Condor’s Nest Ranch.
Look at how cute and bright these baubles are from Song & Dance. I could use one ring for every finger at my next cocktail party!
I found this old Anthropologie catalog on my desk yesterday when I was cleaning out some files. Stunning background with a beautiful dress… I think I kept it around for a reason.
Yesterday, I took a nice long photo walk after lunch. I took about sixty shots during my walk but this was the only one that I ended up liking. These palms look quite lonely in that big bright sky, but at least they have each other.
Happy Summer Solstice! I’ll leave you with these colorful photographs by Oliver Schwarzwald from his Colors project with Hugo Bruls.

I have been working day and night to prepare for the launch of my online shop at Poppytalk. The summer handmade market went live today and includes these handmade papier-mache balloons that I have been working on. Take a peek and check out all of the other amazing vendors at Poppytalk Handmade.

Vintage Collective has spent a great amount of time to scan their personal collection of vintage typography & calligraphy and load it up on flickr. This is my new favorite photostream for inspiration. I am especially loving these calligraphy feathers today!
Hey! Pinterest is having a little meetup in LA at Urbanic (only the best paper shop in the world). So, if you are a Pinterest fan like me, let’s go! You can RSVP right here.
If you haven’t yet jumped on the Pinterest bandwagon, shoot an email to hello [at] mintedcondition [dot] com and I will invite you to join in the fun.
P.S. Any San Diego peeps that want to head up, email me and maybe we can work out a few carpools (you know, save some gas, save the planet)!
Not only is it Friday, but it’s also National Doughnut Day. Rumor has it all of the major chains are giving out free doughnuts. Why are you still reading this? You should be on your way to the nearest Krispy Kreme or Dunkin Donuts!
