Thanks mom...we heart you! (last minute moms day gifts...you're welcome procrastinators)





                      makes us cry every time...like every time.  if you didn't you are a robot

It truly is the bestest, hardest, raddest, funnest, cutest, toughest, sleepiest most smile enducing, heart bursting job in the universe (that's right, we said it...UNIVERSE)

Our moms went through so...SO much for us (we may be angels now but you should have seen us in high school ...and after...sorry moms!) so it makes perfect sense for there to be a day to remind us to remind them how much we love them and are thankful for all they do for us.


Now you are probably asking..."We super love our mamas...but what should we get for them that's different from the usual roses?"   We are so glad you asked!   Here are our fave pics for our fave mamas.

(PS You should never feel pressure to buy anything!   Moms like snuggles, kisses, picnics, sleeping, 50 Shades of Grey...well they DO... cookies, sleep, breaky in bed....see if you are creative its even better)

                                                       Our fave macarons in the cutest box from Bottega Louie

But for those of you who LOVE an excuse to buy something super cute for the ones you love...read on friends...read on....

Ok so obvi...every hard working, huge loving, tired mama needs to be pampered and feel as beautiful as she is...what better way then a trip to the one and only Dry Bar!  


Let her walk in with stingy hair and waltz out with bouncy waves or sleek sexy shine.   No one does it better.   Oh and lucky you last minute shopper...they do gift certs!   Done and done!


  Plus they will serve your mama tea, coffee or champers while she is getting gorge...hello!




From our fave FBF (fake boyfriend) Jonathan Adler is the cutest most user friendly paper weight on earth!   How freaking cute is this?!  Mom is going to suddenly become messy just so she has papers to put this on


Ok so there are FOR SURE at least 3 moms (we just happen to be 2 of them) who die...like seriously freak for pale pink peonies!
 This stunningly GORGE arrangement is from my ultimate favorite lux company ever ever ever!  The Alchemist...super hard to explain but once you get it...YOU GET IT!   Nothing comes close to this company... Surprise your lady love, baby mama, or mom with this peony arrangement and she will squeal in delight.


Feel like giving mom some sweets but would rather make her a goodie?   She will be so in heaven with these ridiculously yummy salted caramel chocolate chip bars...  oh yeah you might want to read that again... salted caramel chocolate chip bars.  These are from Two Peas And Their Pod...

Best part about making her goodies...you get to taste test them to make sure they are perfection!  You're welcome.   Recipe here



 Rather get your favorite chocoholic a lux chocolate instead?  Well we introduce you to the grand dame of salted chocolates, Valerie Confections.  Her salt and pepper dark chocolate boxes will have anyone squealing in delight...then hiding in closets so no ones steals her chocolates.


Hey dads?   Husbands??   This card will have your lady tryin to make a new bunny as soon as she reads it...yes...this is a good thing!



What super mom doesn't LOVE and amazing candle?  Better yet and amazing candle by the bath?
You can not go wrong..ever..with Jo Malone.  This Grapefruit is one of the best smelling candles on earth.  Its not at all what you expect.  Its perfection!

Thank you Jo Malone for making our houses smell divine!


 Loving these sweet and lemon-limey citrus gold drop earrings from a store we should own really,  Anthropologie.

These would be perfect with any outfit for yo mama...


So whether you send a card, flowers, bake a treat or give a present...just simply saying "I love you mom, Thank you for all you do and have always done" will be the gift she will cherish forever and ever...

Happy Mothers Day to all of you moms out there...thank you...we heart you!

Decor to Die for: Rock Steady


Nope, we are not talking about the legendary 1980's break dance crew... At least not this time. We are talking about minerals and crystals... Nope not talking about THOSE kind of crystals either...

We are talking about the AMAZING, breath taking and stunning minerals that are right down under our feet inside the earth!

If you haven't been to your local history museum and checked out the gems and minerals room, we suggest you high-tail it over there. Trust us, you will thank us as you wander for hours enraptured by the beauty that comes from our earth.

We have been so inspired by these gems that we want to deck out our whole house with them!


The only problem is... Big time gem and mineral collectors pay tip-top dollar for these beauties.


Pretty much around the price you would imagine if someone said... "Hey I really want a 5 pound diamond sitting on my coffee table." Yes, some of these rocks will cost you about that much.

Seriously worth every cent is you have it to spend... Because they are raw out of the earth treasures.. One of a kind, rare finds.

But, we are not looking to have anything the same price as a 4 door car on our coffee tables. So, we have found an array of beautiful more affordable options. (Some are still Coo-Coo high end)

Like these stunning, get-the-fuck-out-of-town pieces from high end decorative objects designer Eduardo Garza.

Eduardo takes natures beauty and then steps it up a bit with solid gold bases, we love them because they still look organic and real... Just super fancy-pants.

Speaking of fancy-pants... Our girlfriend Kelly Wearstler the queen of the tableaux makes these insane boxes for her home line from Bergdorf Goodman.

Encrusted with raw cut minerals and gems... We went crazy over these when we first saw them in fact, we are still crazy for them.
They just make any table top prettier.

We found this solid yellow quartz lamp a year ago.... We just can't find where it comes from! And it is killing us because it is so beautiful and would make our living room perfect!!! So if you know, give us a holler.

Both the TWH gals fell hard for this crystal tea light holder... Yummy!

Moving on from Fancy Pants city into the real world, you can go on all these crazy hippie crystal sites and find really pretty stuff.
Like this super pretty amethyst sphere. Available at (No kidding) Dragon Art Work.

These blue agate book ends... So pretty!

How about this insanely insane amethyst bowl?

So amazing in your dining room!

And we found this really cool crystal light at

Even the less new-agey stores are getting into the mineral act, Anthropologie has some very pretty tea light holders and coasters made from crystal, agate and Miss Me's fave, amethyst.

We are so in heartsville with these gems and minerals... We can't wait to learn more and someday have a big giant chunk of yummy sitting on our table!

Just another reason to love our Mama Earth and treat her kindly!

Decor to die for: Throw down....



Throws or handy little snuggly blankets that keep you cozy and look pretty are being put to good use in our houses this week... What about yours?

Here are are favorite small blankets to cuddle under while that rain beats down outside!

Starting, in no particular order, with our fake boyfriend Jonathan "J'adorable" Adler and his Nixon throw. Clean, graphic and cozy.. Just the way we like it in our nests.

Some thing about this beautiful Fireside throw by Matteo was calling our names... Something about it was so warm and familiar, it reminds us of something we can't quite put our finger on...

Wait.... GOT IT!

It's a total Spicoli style "drug rug" poncho made into a very luxe and classy affair! We love it! No wonder it was screaming our names.. It must have remembered us from High School.

Don't know how many times we gotta tell you, we heart, heart, heart P.B.T! Yes, it's true, we also heart P.Y.T, (Rest In Peace M.J)



But we are talking about your nest, so when we say P.B.T it can only mean one thing... Pottery Barn Teen- Our go to spot for affordable preppy cuteness.
Like these PomPom throws. I'll take mine in white, thanks.

Do we even have to say it? Faux fur thows??? Scrumptious! In white or deep brown? So very sexy.
The grown up Pottery Barn has these beauties... But hurry they are almost gone.

Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, even though we love you and bow down to your interior know-how... We are super jealous of your flawless skin, your casual elegance and to top it all off your genuine sweetness. Now you go and do this?
Grrr... WHY!?

Psss.... Miss Me's birthday is ONLY 5 months away... Anyone want to get me one of these amazing K.W for Serffa throws? Anyone? Honey? Anyone?

O.K, Moving on.


There... Are.... No.... Words....

Looks like a super innocent, sweet little lavender throw right? No way guys...
It's the Mother F*ing CRACKEN!

Ohhhh, Ohhhh Thomas Paul, You KILL... You just KILL!

We heart the tattoo style art on this Basotho Throw. Not to mention the always winning color combo of peach, turquoise and black.

Uh-Oh... Miss t.w.h, Don't look now, but I think I found your birthday present!
Kitten lovers of the world unite under this fleece throw with a precious little kitten face on it.
Awwww, Snuggles! It started off as a joke but the longer I look, the more I love this little guy... Maybe I better order two...

Stay home... Snuggle up with your sweetie and a good movie...
(If you have not seen "Away We Go" yet, you need to NOW... Really, NOW!)
