In case you haven’t clicked on over yet, do it! What are you waiting for? Loved domino, love Deborah Needleman. Someone give this woman a magazine, please! I think she epitomizes easy style. I find her really inspiring. I love that she created a team out of not just fabulous people, but good people.
Thanks to Daily Imprint. Glad I’ve found you!
From Schumacher: Shockwave in platinum and jet. It’s dramatic, big scale, silk velvet. Where would you use it?
Not sure my pasty-pale self can pull it off.
How fabulous is this desk from Jonathan Adler? The new Bond Collection. Yummy-glam.
I can’t decide if this is interesting glam, or fug. Definitely one where free shipping and returns would come in handy.
Very simple, but it’s got nice lines. I’d use different shades. If you were looking for fun and color, perhaps these?
Or get a tailored look with these.
All from Stray Dog Designs.
Continuing back to Overstock, something for your Valentine.
Just kidding. Please don’t buy that for anyone over the age of ten. I take that back. Don’t buy that for anyone.
You’ve GOT to go check out A Lovely Being for more images of the super fabulous Caroline Scheeler’s home. It’s one of my very favorites. Chic, comfortable, a little edge here and there while being uber family friendly. It’s what I dream for in design. And it’s full of grey. Can’t beat it. I am still shocked, in a very, very pleased way, that this is the creative direction that Country Living chose to go. Such a happy surprise.
House Beautiful
I think I’d need a cozier couch, but I love the lofty, breezy, rusticness.
First off, I can’t believe I left you for almost two weeks with that crappy last post, and the ugly artwork above the copper tub. Yeesh. Sorry. Here are some things I enjoy looking at in my own home.
Snuggling with Magnolia (technically this is no longer my home, but my parents').
Let’s talk about how much I love my job and why I’m good at it. Let’s also keep in mind that I am highly medicated at the moment. I got sick while on vacation and can’t seem to shake it. I almost cannot hear out of my left ear–check that either ear. No worries though. I’m headed to the doc in the morning. Thanks for your concern.
This is how I like to decorate for Christmas--don't judge my temporary "renters' beige" paint.
I am good at my job 1) because I like people. 2) Because I like stuff (sometimes more than I like people). 3) I obsess over the details so you don’t have to. For example, I scour design blogs and magazines. I ask a thousand times if a curtain color is correct. 4) I like so many different styles of design it’s kind of ridiculous. 5) I respect that my projects are my clients’ homes, not mine, and they have to live in them–and love them. 6) I am hyper critical. Now, if you ask my mother, this isn’t the best quality to have. But in the midst of an interior design project, it’s perfection. (Woah woah, I didn’t say I was perfection. Just that my hypercritical nature is an asset to my clients.) 7)I have more photos of interiors saved in iPhoto than I do of friends and family, or myself. Which is why I didn’t have a lot to choose from for these shots you’re seeing now.
A random selection from my personal collection. One is armless. Oops.
On the docket for 2010: Take more photos of friends, family, and projects!
From Circa by Phyllis Morris (though the first time I read that I thought it said Phillip Morris. They probably don’t make glamorous beds though).
