The Birds

I love this photo posted on Instagram by none other than the talented Mrs. Price. Her photographs are just as cool as her copy, which you can check out here. 

ooh la la

I just spotted a link to this furniture designer's work over on another blog. Her name is Daun Curry, check her out here. Love her furniture. The perfect amount of glamour. Lacquer, mirror, glass and lucite, with just the right details. Boy, I need cocktail.

Crazy Kind of Love

Ok, so I finally caught an episode of Million Dollar Decorators on Bravo and I loved it. In  particular  I loved Mary McDonald and her fabulous graphic floor. After googling her I realized that this one woman has been a huge design influence on me and I didn't even know it. I know kind of stupid. But, for the last couple of years I have kept this folder of home design images that I love and there are few that have always stood out to me. I had no idea those images had something in common and that was none other than Mary McDonald. Anyway, she is  definitely my new design lady crush (sorry Kelly).  I can't wait to keep watching. It is like design crack. Give it to me Bravo.


Images are Mary McDonald designs.

The Art of the Trench

I like Burberry's use of their online experience. Users can submit pictures of themselves wearing the iconic trench. The concept being, "a living celebration of the Burberry trench coat and the people who wear it”.

Check it out here.

The Social Network

Good Article over at thedieline.com today about social media. I really appreciated this comment, "We would all do well to remember that human behaviour and motivation changes much more slowly than technology."

Check out the article here.

A Room in Progress

I am in the process of a total bedroom redo. Here is just a little sneak peek. So far, I have painted, wall papered, hung curtains and painted one of two dressers. Stay tuned there is a lot more to do. BTW - This was my first wallpapering job. I did it all by myself:)

Save It. Just Spray It.

Ok, so if any of you have Ikea furniture you know that it really wasn't meant to last through a move. Which is evidenced in my before photo. I decided before I just chucked it I would take a stab at giving it a new life. I am really liking the after. BTW - the gold spray  is the best I have found. True gold. I will write a post on that later. Oh, excuse the mess I started taking the clothes out of the drawers and then realized I needed photos.
