Love Fort

With today being Valentine's Day it seems like there is a little virus going around and I am feeling very lovesick (in a good way- don't worry). You know that floaty, excited feeling... like kissing the person you love for the first time, or getting ready for a very romantic date? That's how I feel. Its lovely.

And as if I wasn't feeling dreamy enough already... I stumbled across this DIY for a Love Fort. I LOVE. LOVE, LOVE the idea of a Love Fort. A private little space for you and your "person" to just enjoy the magic of being in love. Where you can fantasize about your future, read poetry and kiss till you can't anymore. Sounds like heaven to me!

I can't wait to build my own love fort. Maybe with all of this fantastic weather an outdoor love fort is in order... I am thinking of forests at sunset and a picnic filled with cupcakes and little sandwiches. What do you think?

 Here are some pictures of a few other lovely love forts...

Ooh- a starlit evening in a stripey tent... how romantic! Via Erin Ever After.

What a dreamy space

A forest princess and her fort

What a sweet little 'teepee'

Have a love-filled day!

Sleepy Sundays

What a better way to end a perfect weekend than to spend the entire day in bed (or on the couch) surfing the internet, watching old series, drinking tea and eating cake.

And if you weren't feeling lazy enough already... these pictures of the most snooze-worthy beds will have you yawning and wanting to jump under the covers :)

There is something so fresh, serene and crisp about the combination of green, blue and white (source)

There's that green, blue and white again (source)

Soft blue walls, white linens, turned down sheets- perfection (source)

Imagine waking up to this view every morning (source)

How fantastic is this room? Inviting bed, freshly brewed coffee (we are tea people, but can definitely appreciate the smell of hot brewed coffee) and the basket bicycle of course! And how can we forget the gorgeous wooden floors? Love this!

On a side note: You need to check out A CUP OF JO- the blog of New York magazine writer, Joanna Goddard. She is obsessed with fashion, design, photography... and bicycles. So awesome. We approve! Have a look.

This room is dreamy- what we would call shabby-chic glam (is there such a thing)? The combination of the worn, vintage pieces, the brick wall, the fantastic chandelier and ladylike style- we love it! (source)

The perfect holiday hide away. Beach at sunset, oversized bed, sheer curtains flapping in the cool breeze. The only things that are missing are a hot cup of tea, pretty cupcakes and a good captivating book. (source)

Is there anywhere else in the world you would rather be than on a raft bed (complete with gorgeous linen, lamp and ladder) in a lake on a beautiful spring day? Bring cake, tea and a bag of books- or a bookbag- to pass the time! (source)

How clever are these- old drawers as extra storage. Genius! (source)

Is there a girl in the world who doesn't dream of a four-poster bed? (source)

Wall to wall books. Love! <3 (source)

And if you haven't had enough just yet- check out this princess and the pea inspired photoshoot here. Magical!

Happy dreaming!
