. . . sleep in a little today, do you? I didn’t think so. See you tomorrow. 🙂 random images saved over the years. 1 & 4 are taken w/my iphone/latest Architectural Digest. Some via Pinterest. Last image is our very own bed in our master bedroom …please let me know if one …
Last weekend upon researching my newly acquired Peter Karpf Oto chair, I stumbled upon VandM.com and have been sort of obsessed with the site ever since. There are infinite listings for ridiculously cool and unique vintage and modern furniture, design, & decor. Here are some of my favorites …and these are just from the frist …
I gave you sneak peek at the elements here and including my Easy DIY Tablecloth …and even then I had no idea how they’d all come together {though I did know I wanted to cover the skull that belongs to the antler}. That’s much how I work. I have ideas …I grab handfuls of items …
See the finished look: MY THANKSGIVING TABLETOP DECOR ~ IKAT & ANTLERS While at the bargain yardage shop before Halloween, looking for the perfectly creepy grandma lace for my ghostly haunted mansion tabletop, I found this ultra fall-looking creamy off-white jacquard fabric I thought would make a great Thanksgiving tablecloth. Though the edges are unfinished, …
While I’m still in the throes of Thanksgiving planning and trying to put the finishing touches on our dining room, Christmas/Holiday decorating is in the back of my mind on a daily basis. Usually I have a pretty good idea of the color scheme I want to go with but this year I …
Hanging in our old dining room, on either side of the window. What You’ll Need… * Two pre-stretched and pre-treated canvases{I used 20″ x 16″}* Words via computer/printer {you can use my templates here}* Scissors & Double Sided Tape{I found the dispenser double stick was better}* Spray paint color of your choice {I used black}. …
I’ve been pondering the idea of double benches in our dining room but fear it will have too much of a picnic table feel. Though when I look at these gorgeous dining rooms, they say anything but “it’s picnic time”. * * * * * * * My eye is used to seeing a dining …
Do you remember the black feather wreath I hung on the front door as part of our Halloween decor? {click here for a refresher} …well the other day as I was pondering light fixtures for our dining room {we have a boring, boob-like, ceiling fixture} I randomly held the feather wreath around the base of …
While we’re not big drinkers, we do happen to have quite a large collection of barware & drink paraphernalia. With no extra storage space in the kitchen, I used these shelves I was going to give to Goodwill to create a mini side bar in our dining room & display all our booze. Here’s how …
I’ve finally finished our Rock n’ Roll Video Game Room and I just love it. The catalyst {besides our upcoming Halloween party} was the hanging of the Union Jack Flag print {from Z Gallerie} last week on the wall where originally stood only two golden stumps. …and a bunch of fake plastic instruments {that you …
The room we’ve dedicated as our “Guest Bedroom” also happens house our “library” and “DVD collection” and while it’s the second largest bedroom in the house, it often ends up being “the space where everything I have no other place for” ends up. It’s wallpapered in a red/coral/white sort of wavy stripes on two …
In or around 2008 when I had more free time and could read every single blog I came across on the internet, I found Sweet Paul, a mostly decor & food & fantastic photography blog and fell in love. But when I became depressed about living in the same dark condo for far too many …
The husband and I would really love to have Victorian portraits painted of our dogs that we can frame in hideously gaudy ornate gold frames and hang side by side. Obviously we think it’s hilarious and years down the line, a way to remember our dogs and smile. Etsy shop Hot Digital Dog offers …
You may remember a tweetphoto if you follow me on twitter of the mirror I originally bought for above our mantel but when I got home realized it was a far better fit as a pair in the master bedroom {also mentioned here} and since this was the only one available instore, I wondered where …
I really really REALLY am in love with these little 9×9 3-d textured wall sculptures from Etsy shop Element Clay Studio. While they’re not all inspired by items found under the sea …they look like it to me and would be a perfect addition to our brick & blue beach bathroom and/or our master bedroom. …
