Client installs and a fab collab!


Look who's collaborating to bring us this fabulousness...




Thibaut and Oomph. Yep. In all its resort collection goodness:)
 
You can read more about it on Oomph's blog and Quintessence.
 
More Resort collection from Thibaut - soooo fresh!
 
 
 
Love this lantern from oomph!

 
So I've been a busy gal lately...
 

Look at this deliciousness of a dining room client install happening today.






I die.

Meanwhile on the other side of town ...
 a kitchen install is in progress.



This was our inspiration


Will share more deets and and pics later.


Working with a fab new photog named Andrew Lam. Super cool guy and beyond talented.

See my problem is unless my finished designs are photographed perfectly in just the right light I really don't like to publish ... now Andrew is going to help me that hang up!! Check that off the list.
 
So take a sneak peek at his "test shots" done at my home.









 
 
He's gonna kill it.
 
Will definitely share more of his artsy take on home design at a later date:)

Things I'm all about this week...


Linda over at Calling it Home found an Etsy shop who sells floor plans of famous TV shows. How fun would this be framed  in your closet?

Carrie Bradshaw's Apartment


Even the coolest designers make mistakes. Check out Emily Henderson's mistake room here. You would never know it by  looking at the finished space below!




Now here's something I can really get into ... the "no makeup" makeup look. You can watch the how to video from Maskcara here. LOVE this.

 
Maybe you can tear your girls away from their rainbow loom for a bit to make this?

A diy barrette from the M & J Trim blog. A super easy project for my daughter to do check it out here.

 
My color combo for fall
 
Emerald green and leopard... who's gonna let me design their space with this combo??? anyone?????
 
 
 I'm thinking this emerald green grasscloth
 
 
Paired with lots of these
 
 
On instagram?

Nailed it!

I have a slight addiction to nail heads... okay maybe it's full on.
But seriously look at these pieces...

 

 
 

 
 





Take the nail heads off ?

 ho-hum.

Nail heads ... they'll take your furniture from ordinary to spectacular!

NEW (to me) ARTIST LOVE xoxo

Check out the work of Monica Nask here.

Have an equestrian in your life?

Or how about this beautiful abstract?

 This piece would totally take your neutral room from drab to fab in a flash!


And Monica's series of  charcoal sketches ??? uh-mazing.
These would look great incorporated into a gallery wall.


If you would like more information on the beautiful work of Monica Nask contact her at monica_nask@yahoo.com
