Isadora is not for the average bride. She’s dark & mysterious and would be perfect for an abandoned warehouse wedding. a beautifully textured exposed brick wall, dimly lit big open room with dozens of candles slowly melting and flickering with the movement of your guests. Rich earthly greens and black feathers provide an accent to an otherwise stark table-scape.
sound dreamy to you? then “Isadora” may be a perfect fit to your wedding! check out my etsy listing to find out how to purchase, or e-mail marissa@moonandhoney.com.
Every home needs art! Lately I have been on the hunt for affordable portraiture work to hang in various rooms of our red brick victorian. (I love a nice painted portrait!) I hadn’t had much luck at the various antique stores, so I opted to try my hand at painting my own. See above for an acrylic portrait I did based off a photo by Joelle Blomberg of Figment Art Photography. I will also start to offer custom portrait orders, so feel free to e-mail me (marissa@moonandhoney.com) if you’re interested in a price quote or just go to my etsy page and follow the instructions!

An old friend recently announced her pregnancy and for fun I decided to create an inspiration board. The Medick’s don’t plan on finding out the sex of their little one so have chosen to stick with a neutral palette. Kati mentioned “gray and geometric” as her theme, but I threw a little on trend gold which makes the room a little more chic and softened the hard lines with a hand lettered print and curvaceous lighting!
Are you expecting a little one? Feel free to send me an e-mail (marissa@moonandhoney.com) with your color scheme and theme and maybe I’ll put an inspiration board together for you?!

Fran found this chair on the curb and saw potential — and I absolutely love what she did with it! With just a few simple steps she completely transformed this dumpy thing into something chic and beautiful!
“This was a pretty easy project especially coming from someone like me, I am a sucker for simple. The chair had quite a bit of rust so I sanded most of the spots down with sandpaper, got white spray paint with primer in it (and also something that will keep the rust away.) Put two coats on of white, waited half hour or so then taped off a third of the way down and coated on the metallic gold (which is amazing!)”
Do you have a similar project to Fran’s? I would love to feature it! Or try this at your home and send me your before & afters! marissa@moonandhoney.com
