As someone who has been renovating her 1963 Ranch for the past year, this awesome website is kind of invaluable. SceneCaster allows you to create rooms and spaces so you can see them visually before you paint, demolish or make some other super expensive decision.
Its still in beta, but I can already tell this is gonna be a major addiction!

Afterthought: Are you planning a big re-do somewhere in your house?
I really can’t remember when I’ve had so much fun at a movie. Honestly, its been years. I also can’t remember seeing a movie that is more ridiculous, over-the-top, and silly. I LOVED Mama Mia! I’m not a movie reviewer, so all I can say is for some serious summer fun get a group together and see Mama Mia! You will laugh outloud and leave the theatre smiling from ear to ear. Plus, you can marvel at how incredibly fabulous Meryl Streep really is - and be amazed at the hutzpah of Pierce Bronsen and his terrible but laughable singing voice.
If you loved Grease or any other bright and shiny musical, you’re gonna love love love Mama Mia! Don’t take my word for it - read the New York Times review.
In the meantime go get your ABBA on,

Hopefully you’ve already been recycling your toilet paper and paper towel rolls, but did ya ever think to reuse them? Me neither until I saw this great idea from our friends at Apartment Therapy that uses a glammed up toilet paper roll as an extension cord holder.
Can we say cute and totally smart? Plus, this is an easy craft project even I can’t mess up!

Now I know I am trying to stave off flip flops this summer - but who could resist these puppies?
Made as a promotional tool for everyone’s favorite donut, Krispy Kreme (UK), these flops are made from real grass and are the first “living” flip flops! From the PR firm’s website:
Today sees the launch of the first (living) pair of grass flip flops - courtesy of client Krispy Kreme. Each shoe has over 5,000 blades of grass and, if regularly tended to and watered, can last for over four months. We’re giving them away to stressed out commuters so they can relax in their own mini-park. Bit of fun.
Kind of an odd pairing, but I love it!!
Love,
Tracey
Our very own Jenny Little (Community Manager at Delight.com) recently designed a notebook for Barnes & Noble, and we’re in love with it!
In collaboration with Savannah College of Art & Design (Jenny’s alma mater) Barnes & Noble has teamed up with the best and brightest of this amazing school’s graduates and collaborated on a bunch of really great desk accessories. Our favorite of course is Jenny’s Viking Ship ($9.95). The pattern flows over into the inside of the cover, and the flexi-bound notebook comes with 160 lined pages and an elastic band for easy carrying.
Happy writing!
Tracey
