    Have you seen the latest issue of Rue Magazine ? It’s their Anniversary Issue and man, is it full of beautiful spaces. My favorite is the office of Chronicle Books in San Francisco. Can you imagine having meetings on the lovely table? Underneath that gigorge light? (that means ginormously gorgeous, if you wondering.)  Oh, and that circular [...]

    Thumbnail If you’re as addicted to Pinterest as I am, it’s quite likely that you saw this Fake Febreze pin. If you did, have you tried it? I did! And I love it.

    Source: img.marketingnacozinha.com.br via Vanessa on Pinterest I found this Dining Etiquette 101 image on Pinterest today and it got me thinking about the way I dine – and the way people I typically dine with dine. I definitely don’t follow all of these rules – do you? I certainly don’t use my fork as a pusher when eating dessert. Nor do [...]

    Thumbnail How fun and interesting are these images found on Pinterest this week? First of all, I would love having a cutting board over the trash can – wouldn’t you? It would make life so much easier. It also makes it easier to transfer whatever you’re chopping to a bowl or plate. The ideal situation would be just [...]

    Thumbnail It’s prime apple picking season so I’m on the hunt for some different recipes to incorporate all of those apples we brought home. And since I’ve already made the standard apple pie, I thought it might be fun to mix in some savory apple recipes with the sweet ones and fly through those apples before they [...]

    It seems like Scrabble letters are making their way into people’s home decor more and more. From Pinterest to various blogs, I’ve seen so many different uses of Scrabble letters, it’s amazing! I wonder if the yellow letters from Words with Friends will ever make their way into [...]

    If you had one mantel to do whatever you wanted with it, would you rather a mantel re-purposed as a bookcase?

    Or how about this plain ol’ modern mantel? I like the idea of a mantelheadboard, especially since the shelf it provides gives [...]

    Thumbnail There are so many art-related items on Etsy. SO many.

    Thumbnail How cute and clever is this door mat ? It sweetly invites guests in and then tricks them with a quirky message to go away! I wonder how many people would actually notice the message when leaving. Probably not many! Especially if this fun and funky doormat was in front of one of these awesomely colorful front doors shown [...]

    Streamers as decor for parties have always been versatile for any age. They’re affordable, colorful and add quick pizzazz to any room or venue. And, now decorating with streamers when you’re entertaining doesn’t have to be in the same old twisted across the ceiling way that we’re used [...]

    Thumbnail Grey (or gray, if you prefer) is so popular right now – from home decor to fashion. It’s versatile and neutral, yet different and more fun than black. Greys pair perfectly with brights – like yellows, turquoises and pinks – and work just as well on their own.Plus, there are so many varieties – from light [...]

    Three blue sofas, three very different looks. So…. Would you rather the first living room with a tufted periwinkle blue sofa and lucite coffee table? Or the second room with the baroque-like plush velvet blue sofa and coordinating ottoman that is offset by a modern mirrored coffee table? How about the third mid-century modern [...]
