Lucy’s: high chair | boots Lucy Sun is now a one year old. One! I’m an extremely nostalgic person (almost obnoxiously so, to the point where I can pinpoint exact dates, years and times of a memory by hearing a few notes on the radio or catching the scent of a passerby), and last month, […]

6 Years Old + Ask Anything
6 years! That’s how long ago we bought the domain for Yellow Brick Home, thinking, I bet there are other people out there that love DIY, too. And a big glass of red wine. In 6 years, we’ve learned a lot about our personal style – what we love, what we don’t – and we’ve […]
Happy Birthday, Pet Shop! (And Something for You)
UPDATE: The response to our birthday celebration has been outstanding! So much so, that we’ve hit our earliest holiday sell-out to date for custom portraits (aka, the maximum number of paintings I can physically do before December 25th)! We have only a couple of openings left, after which, custom listings will become deactivated. To the […]
5 Years Old + Ask Anything
Our little corner of the web turns 5 this week! When we hit publish on our very first post five years ago, we couldn’t imagine where that may put us in the future; where would be in a year? two years? ten? Today, I’m writing about our blog birthday from our home studio – the […]
Today, We’re 3!
It’s been 3 years since we’ve started this blog (a word that Scott still can’t say; it makes him itchy), and it’s been an incredible ride. After sharing my first puppy painting – a birthday gift for Scott years ago – you’ve supported us. You’ve asked for your own custom art (by the hundreds), you’ve […]
31
I know Scott wanted a no fuss, no muss 31st birthday this year (we properly celebrated his 30th with a hoopla last year), but we still stole moments from the weekend to eat cake, sing and be merry. Before we spread our picnic blankets at the Ravinia Festival last night, we squeezed in a few […]
Three Cheers for 30 Years
Today marks a special day in history. Exactly 30 years ago, my beautiful, talented, hilarious wife was born on an Air Force base in the Florida panhandle. Since Kim and I met a little over 9 years ago, my life hasn’t been the same. I’ve been inspired by her creativity, motivated by her unending passion […]
The Week’s End
Aside from sneaking in the necessary few hours for football, we spent the weekend celebrating the 30th birthday of our amigo, Jill, who made the drive to Chicago from Cincinnati with her husband, Eric (and soon-to-be baby!), in tow. To toast the occasion, we had a small gathering of our closest friends and shared a […]
Wave Your Cake Flags
Over the weekend, we had a big ol’ blast celebrating my man’s thirty years in this world. Aww, my sweet, birthday man! We threw in a few surprises, dined al fresco, and as every good birthday party should, we celebrated with cake – and a lot of it. In addition to a yummy carrot cake […]
