Panda from Britt McMaster on Vimeo. Now, to take a very brief break from all this Morgan Crossing madness, I present this video of our Boston Terrier, Panda, at 10 weeks.

This is the main bathroom. It’s painted a gorgeous color called “Beluga” which I bought with relatively little consideration (for me) at Home Depot. I love it. If I had a white bathroom, I would definitely consider painting it this color. Here it is before: I had looked for the perfect, vintage mirror to replace [...]

More info here.] The day before the competition was over, my mom was over helping and opened the door to the basically empty second bedroom and said, “So… what’s going on in here?” She [...]

[I am participating in this competition, in which I was given $12,000 to furnish a two bedroom suite within one month. More info here.] It’s not a room, or a nook really. I’m going with “dining area”. This is pretty simple, painted in the same color as the living, um, area. I had wanted to [...]

We now have these three etched bottles sitting on the shelf in our shower, and these three only: “soap” – pure liquid castile soap, also used for shaving, “soda” – baking soda water used instead of shampoo, and “rinse” – watered-down apple cider vinegar used on hair once or twice a week to get rid [...]

If the complete decimation of the candy (subsequently followed by crazed dancing, and the inevitable sugar crash) is any indication, the candy buffet at my brother’s wedding was a success. There was a lot of dashing around the morning of because we had planned to gather supplies the day before, but hadn’t anticipated all of [...]

Just wanted to share this great tutorial that I used to make these tiny baby shoes for Piper. The easy-to-follow tutorial took me about one hour from start to finish and was generously provided by Joanna of Stardust Shoes. I want to make more, maybe with some cuter fabric. I used really soft white leather [...]
