Cutey …and Patootie….that is what I will call them. Better known as Layla and Kevin Palmer from the super-blog The Lettered Cottage. They are like peanut-butter and jelly….toast and jam….jolly ranchers and roller rinks…(ok, is that just me…from 7th grade…I digress…) Layla and Kevin have been blogging for several years. Their post are infused with style, comfort and ease….I adore the home that they have put together. But the best part is that they are such lovely people. Truly…some of the kindest, sweetest and funniest bloggers I have met. I chatted briefly with them at the Haven conference. They were speaking about styling photographs and using your DSLR to the best of it’s ability. They have styled pictures for several of my favorites…The Nest, Better Homes and Flea Market Style…and also write for HGTV.com…I’m telling you..talent!
