The Friday Five: Hearts Galore

February 13, 2015 | Leave a Reply

I didn’t actually mean to have such a Valentine’s Day-focused week on the blog this week, but my posts just ended up that way. I wonder if this is when I’m supposed to realize that I should be moving towards using an editorial calendar for my blog posts? I’ve resisted using such a calendar because I have always taken more of a let-the-blog-evolve-naturally-my-life-is-already-over-scheduled approach to blogging. Anyway, I digress…this post isn’t actually about how to be a blogger. It’s about how to live with hearts! It is February, after all! So, let’s get to it, shall we?

Living with hearts…do you? will you? could you? I’d love to know if any of these spaces strike your fancy.

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! Enjoy your weekend (it’s a long one for us in Ontario…Happy Family Day, too!).

Interiors: Some Spaces I’m Currently Loving

December 29, 2014 | Leave a Reply

My Pinterest boards are completely overflowing with goodness. There are so many beautiful interiors out in the world and there are so many spaces that I’d move right on in to. Here are just a few spaces that I’m currently loving:

In this space, I like the black and white art, the fancy crown moulding, and the easy breezy couch:

In this kitchen, I like the perfectly tiled wall, the white wood floor, and the very sleek vent hood:

In this bathroom, I like the marble shower (we all know I love marble). I think we’re going to be seeing a lot more patterned tile floors in 2015, and this is a sleek marble herringbone version.

In this dining room, I like the irregular shape of the wood table and the cozy sheepskin fur throws on the eiffel chairs.

Blog Spotlight: Mark D. Sikes

My mom is on a roll with her online discoveries. I’m such a proud daughter. This week she sent me the link to Mark D. Sikes‘ blog, and I got completely sucked in. The blog oozes style and glam with a dose of chic and a splash of history. It’s awesome. Go look. (It’s not all white, but there is a lot of it floating around.)

The Friday Five: Gallery Walls

Gallery walls continue to make a major art statement as we near the end of 2014. Do you think it’ll be an ongoing design element in 2015?

I am continuing to add to the gallery wall in my office, and I love that that each image reminds me of a trip or special moment.

Photography: Black & White Continued

After I featured these black and white photographs, my friend Kathlyn sent me over these photos of one of the bathrooms in her new home.

Gorgeous, right? The wallpaper is so dramatic, and I love the black-framed mirror. What’s even more special about this space (for me, anyway) is that the black and white photos of the ferris wheel are mine. I took them years ago in Paris and Kathlyn blew them up and framed them. I had completely forgotten about the photographs, so to see them now in a new space is awesome.
