ORIGRAMI

I've totally been on the Instagram bandwagon for some time now and am totally obsessed with it... Maybe a little to much! I love the whole concept of it, the fact that it's mostly ad free, and the handiness of the app. I've taken over 2000 photos with Instagram so it's pretty near and dear to my heart. Recently I ran across this amazing little company called ORIGRAMI that prints your Instagram photos on an assortment of little cards, that come in a variety of designs, for an great price! Umm AMAZING!

When ordering I chose the "Retroprint" option they offered which came with 36 printed Instagram photos on my choice of design theme. For the theme I chose the basic polaroid look because I love the nostalgic feel they bring. The quality of the photos was excellent. They were very clear and the perfect little size for just about anything. My heart skipped a few beats when my package came in the mail... It was so nice to see my little insta's come to life! So many great memories are on my Instagram feed and I love that I can now look at those memories on something other than an electronic device. 

I decided to display my little Origrami's in our entry way in our home. It's a small little space that was lacking a little TLC and these little photo's defiantly brought it to life. I hung them using washi tape because I love the look of washi tape and it peels off very easily.... Therefore it doesn't leave any sticky residue or tears in your photos. 

A few other things I love about Origrami is that they offer FREE worldwide shipping, have an array of amazing designs to choose from, and their packaging is perfect. All photos come in this adorable little photo folder (shown above) that keeps your photos safe when you are not displaying them. They also released an app for iPhone so ordering photos is easier than ever!

Asher's New Room Tour...

I'm so thrilled to finally share with you Asher's bedroom in our new house here in California. This post has been a long time coming, but I wanted the room to be perfect before I shared it with you and I finally feel that it is. You may remember Asher's lumberjack inspired space in our previous home and if not you can view it HERE.

 Most of you know that my husband is active duty in the USMC so base housing is what we call home. With that being said I'm limited to the amount of things I can do with the space and although I would love to paint the room, I'd rather not have to deal with the hassle of painting it back once we move... And I do love the brightness white walls bring into a space... I still kept the lumberjack inspiration in Asher's new space, but added some modern touches and finds to make it feel a little more like a big boy room instead of a nursery. 

Here is the full tour of Asher's new bedroom and a list of everything that's in it! 

One of my favorite things in Asher's room is this vintage US map Asher's Grandpa passed down to him. It had been in our garage for quite some time and when we moved into this new house I had to have it displayed somewhere... And of course Asher's room was the perfect spot for it. 

I adore a good gallery wall and perfecting this one was probably the hardest part of the room. I had so many great little treasures to display and had a hard time putting this wall together. After countless rearranging I finally decided on a layout that I feel fits the space.

The cardboard bull is another favorite of mine in the room. I found it on eBay when I was pregnant with Asher and just knew it would be a perfect for a little boys room. 

I made those plus sign wall decals out of washi tape! Can you believe that?! You can see the DIY post HERE. 

I displayed Asher's first pair of Freshly Picked Moccs on his dresser. They are so precious and remind me everyday of how small he used to be. 

We bought this teepee for Asher for his first birthday and I had originally had it downstairs and decided to move it into his room. It's bright, colorful, and makes the space pop! We also added a modern rocking chair to the space that Asher can sit it. This chair is excellent quality for the price! 

And a big boy room wouldn't be complete without a growth chart! Asher loves his growth chart and we've been documenting his height every month since we received it.
