creative painting

First of all, the colors in this space are totally me. And then there's the awesome paint treatment at the ceiling. If I had high ceilings, I would totally try this "unfinished" look. Such a great idea!

book display

I love the idea of shelving that allows for outward-facing book covers. It's an art wall combined with storage - ingenious and totally stylish, don't you think?

Cozy.

Perfect for fall, yes? This makes me want to redecorate the entire house....

I think I need this rug.

I don't collect peacock motifs, but this is really pretty... via here...

Sharp and Graphic

This is a child's bedroom, but I kind of want it for myself (with a bigger bed though, of course!) Love the clean, graphic palette and carefully-chosen toys and accessories. So modern, but it still has tons of charm!

Signs of Fall

We're taking a break from our regularly scheduled (i.e. bright and colorful) programming for some warm and earthy interiors with hints and glints of gold. See, it was about 75 degrees today in Philadelphia, and after all the hot and muggy weather we've been having it really felt like the first day of fall. And fall weather calls for fall colors, right? Well, at least for a moment. Tomorrow, I promise I'll be back with the joyously-hued images you have come to expect from me...

Pretty in Pink, Vol 2

I have lots of rosy-hued rooms for you to enjoy today... in my opinion the perfect amount of cheeriness for a sunny Monday morning!

Vintage-Inspired Room & Invitations

This is like a "room-to-wedding invitation" post!  I love the mix of vintage pieces with black and Mid-Century elements in the space above. It segues perfectly into these ridiculously gorgeous French flea market-themed invites by Bird & Banner....

Light Stripes

Simple, graphic, and very pretty... via Living Etc....

Kitchen Love

If only it had carrera marble counter tops.... otherwise, I love the tile backsplash, the glossy cabinets, natural floors, and bold shots of color...

Fresh White Spaces

Such bright and clean dining areas, via Living Etc... 

Light and Bright

Such a happy home! I can't resist the splashes of pink and all the floral touches, especially the living room rug...
