Twiggy and Lou ♥ this room

We've seen this room over and over on Pinterest and different blogs. But it's the first time that I see the entire room and I went like: really??? No!!.. Not only the wooden structure on top of the bed is incredibly well made but all the accents here and there were so well chosen and carefully coordinated. I figured that maybe you haven't seen the entire greatness of this space and you should. So today, this room is featured here on Twiggy and Lou. All pictures were taken from the awesome icioula blog.
Thanks for reading!

Before we say goodbye...Our girls room

The clock is ticking and we cannot wait for a change. Is it going to be a change in the decor or a change of location? Maybe both...Shhh... On time I will share with you what the future holds ;) As for now what I would like to do is keep in mind the precious years that my daughters have spent in this room and to remember, I am writing this post and sharing a few pictures.

The 4 seasons puzzle blocks by Noble Toy Co.

It's raining and the trees look even more green. If we were not in Brooklyn I will think that we are somewhere in Pennsylvania. Days like this, inspiration comes from within and so far from the trees that surround us. I was browsing for wooden toys when I fell on these 4 seasons puzzle blocks made by Noble Toy Co. a company based in Chicago. I can tell that they were made by dreamers like me. People who care about earth and who use their childhood memories to create their toys. Now, I let you fall in love with them too...

When the little people grow

I haven't written in so long, I apologize. Life is very very busy and time flies, it's been very difficult to keep posting and producing pieces at the same time. But today is Mother's Day and I was inspired by this pretty room. Have a great day!

Summer necklaces by Twiggy and Lou

Summer is on its way and we feel it a little more everyday. When I started to design this jewelry collection, only a few colors and designs were on my mind. Today the possibilities are endless and the fun keeps growing. On a client request, here are a couple new designs and some others that you already know. Find them in my Etsy shop.

Twiggy and Lou final logo and handmade business cards

When I created Twiggy and Lou, my vision of the brand was limited to my first creations and I had no clear idea about what its image should be. So I opted for a clean and simple logo but nothing that represented me. Now that Twiggy and Lou became a real brand, it is important that my logo reflects my work. Let me tell you that it was not an easy thing but with the help of the right graphic designer and a lot of back and forth, I am now very happy with the final logo design. I wanted something very simple and delicate with a modern feel and it's what I got! Thank you to Robin Freni from Freni Design for working with me on the project. Robin is based in California but doesn't let the miles come in between good communication and execution. I am really pleased with the whole experience and will work with her again as well as recommend her to other business owner out there. She is the real deal :) To check out her work click here.
Once the logo was done, I ordered some custom stamps because I wanted to make my own business cards. Call me crazy but I love handmade things!! Here is a step by step to creating my own cards.
