Happy weekend, friends! 2014 has already been a whirlwind of crazy schedules and big projects — and this week included wrapping up some old ones and embarking on a few new. We completed the final shoot for my book (!!!) which was bittersweet, since I’ve loved every minute of this project but know that finishing it will feel like the greatest accomplishment. Thanks for all your sweet and encouraging words over these last 10 months, and for sharing my excitement for the book’s release in the fall. It’s meant the world to me and of course, we’ll be sharing a few sneak peeks here as the publish date approaches. Speaking of peeks, be on the lookout for a few of our new studio space later this week — wood floors are down, lighting is in-progress, and it’s all coming together really beautifully. Now I’m just impatient to move in and start decorating! (here’s what I’m envisioning, by the way.) What are all of you up to this weekend? Hope it involves a cozy brunch, and if it’s freezing where you are, curling up with a good movie and a cup of tea. Don’t forget the Globes tomorrow, and enjoy my favorite links from the week!

These cut + fold paper stars would make the cutest little party decorations.

Nothing prettier than a Napa Valley wedding.

I was the lucky recipient of one of these cuties (thanks, Joy!) Such a sweet favor idea!

This dinner party would be a perfect Valentine’s gathering.

I’ve been wanting to use miso in my cooking more often, and this soup looks like the perfect way to do it.
