The Pattern Explosion Arrived May 17, 2012 No Comments

The Cole & Son wallpaper samples I mentioned last week have arrived and they are even better in person than I imagined. Of course, most of the ones I liked and ordered are black, white and grey, but they have tons of depth and texture to them. At this point, I don’t know if our [...]

Kitchen Dream May 14, 2012 2 Comments

The kitchen in our new home is like new, so it’s pretty low on the priority list for attention. But there is a small part of me that wants to tear the thing down, put up modern white cabinets, add open shelving, tile the back splash and trick it out. Dreaming big over here, that’s [...]

I have a soft spot for wallpaper. That is probably only because I have never installed wallpaper. My feelings may drastically change after that but, until then, I’m a fan.

Desk Needs March 13, 2012 1 Comment

The desk with no chairs got a temporary fix last week (hello folding chairs from the basement, you look classy) and now that we’re actually using the desk we found we are in need of lighting for it as well. Does it ever end? This flea market desk is such a diva. So now the [...]

That Rug. March 6, 2012 4 Comments

This IKEA Stockholm Rand rug has officially invaded my dreams. In between wedding nightmares (which are the WORST, I swear) this rug was dancing through my brain last night. I think that’s a sign that I must make it mine, no? Source: Design*Sponge, Livet Hemma, sfgirlbybay, design elements via Pinterest
