Basket-weave Design on Everything!


Basket-weave 
is an ancient, beautiful, and 
practical art; it is 
always an option for good design:














There is so much to enjoy in this bathroom:
Frameless shower, basketweave tile floor, + mirrored frames:






love the sisal rug~




Basket display:





Ann Sacks tile...of course. Amazing:

 Those are just a few  favorites...
When in doubt, go for the basket weave!

Farmhouse, Country Design Ideas

I collected some Country / Farmhouse ideas
 that are bursting with sparks 
of great design and detail :


















This last one is sweet, simple, very do-able, 
and 
 something every home ( kitchen) should have~

Have a great day ~

Mirrors in Kitchens

Here's the idea behind mirrored/ mirrors-in kitchens: 
light, a sense of extra space, seeing what's going on behind you
 as you cook or work at the sink, 
a touch of glamor,  
or to keep an eye on yourself in the kitchen!
And it just looks so great:

This first kitchen surprised me: Mirrored Kick plates! The details here are exquisite.

On a simpler,charming note: 









The rather unusual kitchen above is a real, non-showhouse,
 used-everyday kitchen, by the way.


Have bright, sunny day!
(or plenty of rain, if you need it>>>!)

Memorable Design....Kitchen-ly Chic

One thing that develops and changes in wonderfully dramatic ways is the kitchen.
 La Cornue, Wolf, Sub- Zero,Kitchenmade, Caesarstone...
 have galleries full of these great new design ideas,
 highlighting their own products, of course, while giving us lovely food for thought.
 Ideas, both high and low - end,  just fly at you!







Over the top yet balanced:

Glass tiles, industrial pendants,the hidden fridge,
 the graduated tones of blue...wow

More affordable wow:

Sweet country look:





Interesting and appealing:
I love this kitchen's lighting/pot rack and that red 
hutch, the wonderful ceiling, the  stools, the island ...


Those marble countertops are so great:




Some of the flooring ideas really caught my eye...in addition to the wood, the black, the white, the rustic, the commercial, the industral...well. you know!

Have a great day~
