Pretty in Chartreuse




Believe it or not, I got the inspiration for this color while on a camping trip this past weekend when someone took out curry spiced hummus dip, strange no? But true.
I paired it up with some pink knobs and is ready to be shipped to someone's lovely home. This beauty can be found in my Etsy store.

Pink Marvel




And here is my newest pink marvel. Where most would paint it white I opted out for the bright fuchsia pink. Unfortunately my camera can not catch the depth of the color, but I guarantee that it is absolutely out of this world. Drawers are lined with leftover wallpaper so not all of them are the same. A piece like this can definitely live with a touch of quirkiness on the inside. It is now available on my Etsy store page.

Newest Poppy




And finally, here it is, the piece I started working on a few weeks ago is finished. It was a bit of a roller-coster ride to get it done, but in the end it all worked out. It is now available for purchase in my Etsy store. If the rain stops I am hoping to be able to finish another piece today and I am super excited about this one.

Where the wild things are



...judging by the pictures, right in my back yard.
I went on a search for my next project and this thing popped right into my life. I just couldn't leave it behind and now I have to figure out what to do with it. It may start appearing as a prop in my furniture shots. Stay tuned and check for yourselves.

Vendor Call


It is official now, me and my Poppies are now official part of Freedom Clothing Collective. The transition happened late last month and by now I am fully on board pulling my share of weight to bring the store to the next level.
As a part of this initiative Freedom Clothing Collective would like to open their doors to home decor and are looking for all sorts of useful items you would use to embellish your home, such as ceramics, candles, shower curtains, rugs, tea towels, bowls, quilts, etc. Keep in mind, these items not only need to be aesthetically pleasing but we urge that they be eco friendly in nature and either made or reworked locally. If you're interested in presenting FCC with your home creations please contact me at jelena@poppyseedliving.com and let's get that ball rolling.
