cozy

let me please begin by saying i do not have any idea where this photo came from. but i truly love it. if someone can help me find it that would be great.

i look at it from week to week and dream of being in this kitchen preparing all of these goodies and being completely content. what makes you content?

someone is going to get lucky...

when they buy these... they will be in the ticking in a month or so... they are making their way across the world... aaahhh what a treasure. wish i had room for them! hhhmmm?

pure holiday spirit

seeing these vintage lovelies daily is true happiness for me. especially this time of year...

they provide a festive spin on holiday decorating... clients and customers purchase these fabrics for pillows, table runners, upholstery or even lampshades... we can custom design anything you like... anytime of year... just ask. we will perform a miracle for you....

adorable

just had to add this to the blog ... dont need words for this... do i?

lovely...but is it real?

this is a photo of my friend's new living room... it is so fabulous and elegant... she has 3 kids and 2 dogs... brave right? do you see something tricky in the photo???

a great idea...

i read a great post today from habitually chic and heather was discussing "cool" cocktail bars. what a surprise as i had just posted this zinc and steel table yesterday on 1stdibs.com thinking this would be a great kitchen island (add a marble slab on top) or a very cool cocktail bar. this table just came from france and has the most wonderful patina... check out heather's blog... it is such a great read.
