Friday Inspiration



Sorry I haven't posted much this week....I've been so busy with work and with the weather being so crazy, there have been lots of snow days for my little ones...
I designed this notebook paper fabric, and thought this saying was perfect for Valentine's day...Enjoy and live well....

Swedish Style

Good Monday morning everyone...I love these images, and if I could go back in time, I would have used some of these design inspirations in my own home...

The Swedish interior design team of Lars and Ursula Sjoberg really know how to create inviting rooms whether it's a arisocratic boudoir or a farmer's kitchen. Their distressed pale colors and light diffused rooms inspire designers to recreate these timeless interiors over and over again.

Hope everyone has a wonderful week....live well!

Simple Sunday Mornings

Happy Sunday...I have so much to do today, but like the bed in this picture, mine too was very difficult to get out of this morning. Only the longing for coffee and toast with a tiny sprinkling of cinnamon and sugar could pull me out from under the covers.
One thing that is truly divine....SUNSHINE!! After what seems like forever with thick, heavy, snow filled clouds, we have bright, mood-lifting sun this morning. I spent a few quiet, extra minutes looking out my kitchen window at the beauty of it all....live well...

Mismatched Finishes

Happy Friday everyone....I hope everyone has a very relaxing weekend. I loved the deliberately mismatched finishes on these pieces, somehow they all seem to work together beautifully and achieve that "not trying too hard" style. So inspiring....

live well!

Red Love







For the first day of February, I thought it fitting to do a post about the color of the moment....Nothing says glamour quite the same as a flowing red dress, or the charming way a red door welcomes you in.
I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday....live well
