for the love of industrial

I used to think industrial furniture was too.. "cold" for my taste, but it's grown on me! Especially pieces mixed with dark wood. I would never do a whole room industrial style, but there are a few pieces I really love! (Hence the ladder in the previous post!)  ;)

I've been drooling over this website for days! I really like the feel of these east-coast homes.

Ok, obviously these last 2 aren't east coast, they are Montana (I believe.)

This looks like the house from Something's Gotta Give! Anyone? Check out the rest here.

I could sit in a room like this all. day. Drinking coffee & tea, naturally.

holy crapola.

I don't even want to know how much that oven and stove cost. But it is gorgeous!

wow.

boys rooms!

Little boys' rooms can be so sweet and handsome-it doesn't all have to be about powder blue or super-hero's. ;) I love really mature-looking rooms, for boys, with masculine colors. If we had had a little boy instead of a girl, my husband and I were going to do a more mature room with dark colors and a hunting theme- we really wanted to buy that plush moose head!

I freaking L.O.V.E. those windows. No, really. I've been annoying husband for months about them!

me: "They're called lattice windows, babe! You know, the diamond shaped ones? I wanna do those on the house one day! Don't you love them?!"

husband: "uh-huh"

He's a doll. Let's me rattle on about design and decor and just smiles, like a trooper. ;)

kiss me, I'm Irish

I am, actually. ;) I love St. Patrick's day! So does my wife-for-life, Elise. We'll have our fair shares of green beers tonight with our hubs'. (Yup, that's plural. Pronounced "hub-zez." Duh.) I digress.. along with the rest of blog-land, here is some green inspriation for your bhaile. (that's "home" in Gaelic. I know, I'm on a roll!)

love

I know. I know.

I'm obsessed with kitchens. If I had it my way, the kitchen would be the biggest and most expensive room in the house (and should, of course, be the prettiest.)  ;)

Never said I didn't love a dark kitchen! :) This one is gorgeous.
