Dream on!

This kitchen has been popping up in blogland for a while now and it is my total dream kitchen.  I found it over at High Gloss Blue.  I would die for an all white home but that will never happen.  I would have to pay a little trip to rehab for being OCD cause I was cleaning too much...and we don't want that to happen.

Baby Room Crush

I friend of mine just found out she is having a girl in a couple of months and when I came across this image  of a nursery for a little girl I immediately thought of her.  This proves elegance works in any room...even a nursery.  It is decorated so simple yet so detailed at the same time.  I love the rug, for me, not the nursery!  I believe keeping colors and themes simple make an easy transition from Infant to Toddler to Tween.  Oh that mirror is pretty amazing too!

Mirror, mirror on the wall...

So my bestie L.H.S posted a comment on the post Tub Time about the mirror and how she loved it and was looking for something similar but not so fancy and potentially from the art deco era.  I did a little searching to give her some ideas of where to find similar mirrors for her and her husband's adorable home in KY.

I highly recommend paying a visit, when you are looking for inspiration for anything vintage, to 1st Dibs.  This is a great auction site of all things vintage--clothing, jewelry and decor.  It is really high-end in terms of cost but I enjoy going there to look for inspiration.

Here are a few options I found for her on 1st Dibs to get inspired by--take note I didn't include the cost.  These are a little more simple in the details and I think it is a pretty common mirror on the mass-production market.

My next step in this process of finding the perfect mirror for L.H.S. will be to find it for her for a very reasonable price.  I'll keep you posted of my search for an art deco mirror for her home.

The next image is from Crate and Barrel...I actually have this mirror and would love to get at least 2 more to hang all together and make a statement.  My mother always says objects in 3's always look best.  I will show you pictures when I have my collection complete.  Oh, love the wall color...it reminds me of my magenta chair.

Let me know if you've come across similar mirrors.  Have a great day!

Monday Flowers!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

I found these beautiful images of tulips in At Home Arkansas.

I'm Crazy about this Table and Chairs...

I really wanted to include this image last week in the post about the crush I have on this table but I couldn't remember where I found it.  I love that they combined the traditional chair, mirror and chandiler with a very modern table.  This proves you can mix elegant traditional peices with very modern peices in your home.  What is the deal with all these ornate mirrors lately?  This would go perfectly in my all white dream home.

I found this image at From the Right Bank...check out her blog, it's really cute!

Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend!

Marshmallows are the New Cupcakes

The new trendy dessert to hit the streets is the Marshmallow. Not just any Marshmallow but a gourmet one, of course.  They come in all different flavors and shapes. And I've just recently started seeing them on every menu around the city.  Better yet, they are usually gluten free.  Indulge next time you see these little treats and you'll thank me.

Chandelier Crush

I would love to have this in my blue room!  It almost reminds me of Milk Glass but black of course.

Flowers of the Week

GOOP

If you aren't getting GOOP, the e-newsletter by Gwyneth Paltrow, then you're missing out!  I look forward to it every Thursday when this little bunch of goopness arrives in my in-box.  She breaks her topic of the week into six categories: Make, Go, Get, Do, BE and See.  Last weeks Goop, See, showcased her loft in Nashville.  She worked with Annette Joseph from Atlanta.  They transformed the loft in 10 days to this amazing beauty. Check it out!
