Fusion Brands

As you probably know, Jeff loves to cook and he is always looking for cool kitchen gadgets. While browsing through one of his cooking magazines, he found Fusion Brands. They make the coolest kitchen gadgets ever! Right now we are loving the food pod, the ice orb, and the poach pod. All their products look great and we can't wait to try more of them.

Wallpaper

I love to read design blogs and one thing I've noticed lately is that wallpaper is everywhere. Yep, that's right, it's making a comeback. I wasn't sure about it at first, but it's definitely growing on me and I love how artistic it is. I found some great prints from The Collective Wallpaper, I just can't believe how expensive a roll of wallpaper can get, I guess it's a version of art. Anthropologie also has their own line of wallpaper, check that out here.

As I was doing some research for this post, I found some great pictures on Houzz, here are some of my favorites.

Designer Jessica Helgerson

I've noticed designer Jessica Helgerson from some of the design blogs I read and I LOVE her style. Not only is she a great interior designer, she is from Portland! Yay Portland! She has been named as one of the top 25 young designers in America by House Beautiful magazine. Jessica also did some design work for the restaurant Andina, which one of our favorite places to eat here in Portland. Here is Jessica's website, make sure you click on her portfolio to see all the amazing projects she has done. Here are a few of my favorite pictures.
