Console Table Seating/Storage

Multi functional furniture is appealing and practical. My focus at the moment is a console with underneath seating/storage. It creates a nice layered look and a place to stow away magazines, throws, toys, etc. Not only does it make sense, but it can live in many spaces - an entryway, behind a sofa, under a tv...lots of options!

It's an Ikat World

I know it's old news that ikat is "in"...I've been admiring all it's forms for some time, but have been seriously thinking about putting it in my space, so thought I would take a look at all the ways we see it. Rugs, walls, upholstery, pillows - there's really no wrong way to use it.

Ok, so maybe I already did put it in one space...let's just say the nursery might have some killer roman shades that are ikat - sneak peak below!

And now a little ikat for baby Castle...

This is a China Seas fabric - color theme is grey, yellow and orange with animals as the focus. I can't wait to show you more pictures when it's farther along!



A Spot to Linger

Nothing like a great spot to linger. Eat, drink, chat, nap...whatever it might be, this space says "stay a while".

Weekend Wear

With Memorial Day around the corner, it's fun to browse for summer gear. Of course it's not as fun when you are 7 months pregnant, but at least I can scope things out for friends and followers :)  Happy Shopping!

Nursery Storage

I've been back and forth on what type of shelving/storage I want for my nursery...I am bored by all the typical wood shelving and bins, so I thought I would hunt for something a little more industrial and transitional. These are along the lines of what I have in mind....just imagine them stacked and lined with books and sweet baby items/toys.

Yesterday I made a decision and soon I will reveal which one made the nursery and what the rest of the room looks like too!
