Wouldn't You Just Love To...

have been the lucky person who stumbled upon this light flooded real estate listing?

have been the smart person who purchased this place in all its industrial glory?

have been the brave person who then made the bold (and completely appropriate) decision to drench the walls in the richest shade of inky jade?

have been the brilliant person who scoured flea markets until finding the rustic, worn-to-perfection butcher block island and stools?

Check all the above!

Happy weekend! Anything fun planned? I'll be scouring Kraftmaid's warehouse for a steal on some bathroom vanities. Wish me luck! You definitely need it at this place!

House Beautiful 2011 Kitchen of the Year with Tyler FLorence

prepare a Sunday brunch feast on that butcher block island?

And those swing arm lamps all in a row over the sink. Don't even get me started.

Such a dream. Do you have the kitchen of your dreams?

What is one indulgence you'd love to have in your kitchen?

plop onto that sofa and all its velvetty goodness and flip through a new magazine?

Piping hot peppermint tea in hand, of course.

I'd love to hear, what's your favorite way to spend a rainy day?

It looks like we're about to be getting our fair share of those here in Cleveland. And I need all the ideas I can get!

Happy weekend!

Domino Magazine

sip your morning coffee in that cozy bed, put your feet down on the beautiful espresso stained floors, pull up the hand block printed covers, stretch and start your day?

Amanda Peet is one lucky lady, also evidenced by this, this, and this.

Thanks to Ashlina, aka the Decorista, for bringing this gorgeousness to my attention!

Walk down those stairs every morning only to be greeted by your favorite white ceramic vase and a sun-soaked kitchen. Chevron really is the perfect way to start any day!

And a big thank you to Jenny over at Little Green Notebook for featuring my padded headboard and handpainted Chinoiserie walls! Seriously, I'm blushing.

catch a glimpse of yourself in that white bamboo-meets-greek-key-mirror, as you usher first time guests to your powder room featuring wallpaper in the prettiest shades of clover and white.

Happy weekend lovelies! Anything fun planned involving paint, wallpaper, or DIY in general?

Be the proud mama of those brilliant "artists" (featured on the fridge), prepare dinner with that amazing orange Le Creuset cook wear, and soak in all the natural light this turquoise-lacquered-cabinet and Carrera-marble-backsplashed kitchen has to offer.

...host a brunch for your favorite ladies on this cheery patio. I'd serve this, wear this, and go here after for continued fun in the sun.

walk through the front door into this entryway everyday!


I imagine I'd:
be carrying a burlap bag full of fresh goodies from the local farmer's market,
have Ray Ban's pushed casually to the top of my head holding back loose cascading curls,
and smell like the now discontinued "Eau d'Azur" eau de toilette from L'Occitane.
