{Saturday Sleep-in}


This sleep-in is devoted to this airy bedroom. The head and foot boards of this scrumptious bed ground the airiness but still allow a little lift off. The whimsical decorations add to the climb upward. Now just spread those wings and find a pillow for a nap.

{organized to boot}

I've been out for a while helping take care of my mom, so when I arrived at home, there was a mountain of mail. Inside was one of my favorite catalogs-Restoration Hardware! This piece really caught my eye-imagine it filled with scrapbook papers, material, rubber stamps, trimmings, and whatever else comes to mind. It would be classy in a hallway or guest room if no craft room is available to you.

{to dry for}

I hate cooking and cleaning. I mean really, the only reason I have a kitchen is because it came with my townhouse. However, I will concede that I do enjoy decorating it. So, when I saw these tea towels, I just had to share.

{living in a Bright Star}












Design*Sponge put together this beautiful collection of home accessories and fashion inspired by a beautiful movie called Bright Star, so I just had to share it with you. Bright Star follows the bittersweet romance between famed poet John Keats and Fanny Brawne, the girl next door. Words are not enough to describe the beautiful homes, dresses and devastatingly handsome poets.
Here is a list of the items featured in the roundup photos:

{Saturday sleep in}

From my Domino Archives, here is a delightful space to curl up and read a book in bed. The alcove creates a little hide-away and the curtains add another layer of effect. Enjoy this Saturday place of slumber! I know I will...

{no drink is complete without a little umbrella}


Spotted on the streets of SOHO, the window decoration of a purse store caught my eye. What a clever use of paper umbrellas, the pop of color is quite refreshing on these increasingly cold Fall days.

{inspired living in SOHO}


This is just one of the many pieces that I fell in love with at Clio in SOHO part of NYC. There were so many wonderful finds that it was hard to pick one to feature. I liked the inspired design of this piece. It is a traditional teapot, with even a traditional vine and floral shape but matched together in such an unconventional way that is, well, inspired. Ohh, I have to tell you about another teaset, called Sterling Tea Set, it is an exact replica in porcelin of the artist's grandmother's silver tea set, however the modern twist is a silver spoon transfer on the white ceramic tea tray.
Visit this well-appointed store at www.clio-home.com or at 92 Thompson St. in SOHO.

{fun and funky glam}



Carousel Letters are a fun and funky way to glam up a wall. Pick your initial and make it yours. I just love the quirkyness.
