The bedrooms featured here all have an airy, open, breezy feel to them which would surely encourage a calm and peaceful sleep.

Happy Friday everyone! Have a wonderful weekend!
I love the textures and patterns in each of these three bathrooms. Horizontal lines, marble veining, and an abundance of small tiles make each of these spaces pleasing to the eye. Repetitive forms and white design is a winning and classic combination. Wouldn’t you agree?

Our White Out series continues today with a look at what white goodness our readers have spotted from around the world.
In New York City, Jeff sculpted a family of simple white mushrooms.

In London, Lindsay snapped a photo of The White Company store (I’ll take one of everything please!).

In Toronto Sarah recently bought a couple of Le Creuset trivets that have such a pretty design. It looks like cast iron to me but this French Trivet is actually silicone.

And to round of today’s series, Daniela snapped a photo of this fountain sculpture during her visit of Nuit Blanche in Toronto earlier this fall. The sculpture, titled Viva La Dada, Baby!, is a tribute to Marcel Duchamp created by Jolie Fejer and Viliam Hrubovcak. It was part of the Dada Reboot! exhibit curated by Thom Sokoloski. Duchamp’s now-famous (in 1917 it was quite controversial) urinal, the Fountain is considered by some as one of the most important works of 20th century art.

Last weekend I attended the Home County Folk Festival here in London. There’s a festival almost every weekend here in the city but I think Home County might just be my favourite. The music is great, the crowd is relaxed, and there are always some creative vendors. This year I was most attracted to the pretty jewelry and the lace and vintage window display at Fierce Deer, a Toronto-based shop owned by Kate Swan.

it’s the details – like the consistent deer theme – that make this shop so charming
Kate’s white cat – brings the shop good luck!
what I walked away with – a tiny bear on a long chain necklace – a must for my menagerie
It was great to meet Kate and to explore her charming jewelry shop. If you’d like to see more – go on and visit Fierce Deer.
