Library at home..

 

I love a library at home, we have a great space for one in our family room.  I cannot wait to create some built-in bookcases and fill them with great stories and design books.

Do you have a library space in your home?

public- New York City Wedding...

 

Public is a super cool restaurant designed by Avroko.  They are the bomb!

This is the first I have ever seen about a wedding at one of their creations. Super cute and stylish no?

Looks amazing!  I always love a good different take on a wedding.

Check out their whole design concept for the restaurant in Best Ugly.

Recycled bed design... the pallet bed frame

I am loving this recycled bed frame made from palletts.  Great for the starving college student who would more than likely toss their furnishings after school anyway.  Fun, simple and totally in style.

Vintage doors and windows

I love love vintage doors.  I cannot wait until someday when I can build my own home and include some vintage architectural elements... but for now I will just dream about it.

Green design: Vintage and worn books on display

Using vintage books and natural accents is a great way to give a book case some texture and interest. Mixing used and worn books with your regular novels and books adds that decorative element that you sometimes would not get from those books alone. Turn your books with the spines to the back to help them coordinate and you are all set. Come by and check out our distressed books to add to your book collection!

Green design: Reusing Vintage chairs

I was so excited to see that other designers feel the same way that I do. Sometimes you just cannot beat reusing a piece, giving it a new life, and getting something a little bit more unique. While emailing with Doug at Tracery Interiors about a project that they had just completed, which has a wonderful guest suite in all greige, I noticed the chairs in the photos. In this particular home Doug used a few sets of chairs that were reupholstered and refinished in some cases, to create a very unique and inviting look. Please visit their blog for additional information.

Green Design: Recycled and hand blown pendant lights

I am loving this trend towards hand blown pendant lights with vintage style bulbs. These pieces are amazing and work well hung individually, in pairs and in a grouping with multiple heights.

Terrarium love.. Bringing the outside in

I just love these little darlings! They are such a great way to bring that little bit of green in without all the remembering to water worries. A great book to show you how is The New Terrarium which I posted about a while back. Give it a try and see how you do.
