Slow Down and Smile

 

I am in the mood to slow down. The days seem to be flying by and I need to catch my breath. I want to savor my cup of  tea, read a book without getting distracted.......laze in bed..................you get the drift :)

 

It is good to daydream a wee bit before reality sets in and the day begins:)

 

Here's wishing you a beautiful day. Do slow down and remember to smile!

A Pop of Color in my Living Room

Every time I cross my living room I smile:) I cannot help it!! Yes, I am quite aware that I have posted images of this chair here before:) What can I say......guess you can call it new love :) For someone who has always liked subtle earthy tones....... the bold look of this Suzani chair is a shift for me:)  I love the pop of color in my living room. This chair adds the right amount of color to contrast my cream couch and wooden chair and bench.

I am on the look out for a end table to place next to this chair. The current table is not a favorite therefore I have this fabric draped on it. I usually prefer end tables without a tablecloth:) I love the way a home evolves over the years just like we do:) I recently read something that so aptly describes what I feel about my home......

"Rooms are albums that provoke memories. What you decorate with should remind you of a street you wandered down or an experience that made you happy.”— Amy Hase, Designer."

Have a beautiful day.

Kitchen Crush

Every once in a while you come across a room that makes you gasp! This is one of those moments :) I am falling for this spacious, bright and airy kitchen. The lanterns, the lighting, the subtle splashes of color and the beautiful green plants!! This is where I could spend a lifetime........ yes, I could be inspired to turn into a gourmet cook :)

Tell me if you like this space as much as I do???
