mint

We've taken turns at my house being sick, for the last 3 weeks, and I was the last to catch it. I don't blog all the time anyway so I definitely haven't felt like it lately, but since my poor little blog has been neglected, I figured I needed to do somethin'! Random, but lately I've been obsessed with this color (thanks Elise)...

Essie's Mint Candy Apple

more mint love..

(anthro knobs & pulls are always beautiful but read [& believe!] the reviews.. we've gotten some that were just not well made)

suzanne kasler

I just stumbled across her and her work yesterday and spent more time than I'd like to admit looking at everything. She's an incredible interior designer and has some freaking amazzzing products. I about died over all the gorgeous furniture.. and then died again when I saw the little "contact for pricing" link on everything. Boooo. ("contact for pricing" always = way the freak out of my budget) Frickety frack. Oh, well, a girl can still dream, yeah?   ;)

this little beaute is the piece I'm obsessed with. isn't she preeeetty??

this little miss is another favorite. she and her twin would have a happy home in my living room

and again :) I love suzanne's liberal use of the quatrefoil

that bed is so genius. the gorgeous wall behind it doesn't hurt either.

foxy finds

There's something charming about them, right? Not the real ones... the fake, cute, whimsical ones.

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!)  ;)

new living room, new ideas!

So, we just moved into a new house and we love, love, love it! We have so much more space and storage. I've been wanting to re-do our living room forevvver and lately I've been thinking of white/off-white with blue accents... [with a slip-covered couch 'cause, let's get real, I have a 2 year-old... ;)  ]

1. sofa - z gallerie
2. ladder - abc home
3. matching chairs - neiman marcus
4. mirror - serena and lily
5. drum chandelier - uttermost
6. rug - dash and albert
7. garden seat - horchow
8. union jack pillows - laura ashley
9. chevron pillow - 3BM

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.
