More Gorgeousness

I have a weakness for Gorgeous. And these rooms are that. Gorgeous.

There are some interesting pieces in each room too. Enjoy.

This last gem has me searching for that chest. I just love that! And the paint colors, the chandelier in the first image...so much fun....

Have a great day!

Red, White + Beautiful

I found a bunch of red, white and (sometimes) blue rooms for today

 -- the flag-makers of the world are fantastic sources of inspiration, color-wise, eh?!

I'm seeing a lot of these giant gold mirirors. Aren't they lovely! Hmmm I feel another post.....

A chart of flags would probably really make an excellent source for color ideas....Hmmmm....


Have a Colorful Day!

Beautiful Gold Ceiling

Shine on!

This bedroom is fascinating in it's details. And it is a room with yet another Gold Ceiling! I began spotting these and collecting them on one of my Pinterest Boards months and months ago. I thought gold on a ceiling was such a rare and wonderful idea. But it doesn't seem to be so unusual anymore, and they just keep coming.  Here's a good one:

 I've got a whole slew of them saved on my "Gold Ceilings" pinterest boards 
which you can see here......It's an idea that deserves some attention.


Have a Golden Day!

In the Kitchen: Cabinets!

Here are My Favorite Kitchen Cabinet Ideas-- 

(It's too hard to pick just one.) The huge variety of materials and styles means

 that  with some smart planning, a new or renovated kitchen can have some 

unique, gorgeous storage.

First, the NO cabinet look:

Love the chairs and the dark wood lower cabinets above. 

 I just am crazy-in-love with the no-cabinet up-top look when there are some

 Amazing windows like these below. But notice the glass-front cabnets, the lower ones, the hardware...:

Gorgeous wood, sleek hardware:

Corrugated metal cabinets

Open shelves~

amazing wood~

                        Glass:

Love this!

Great hardware gives these standard white cabinets new, updated life:

Very modern chic:

Not just for the laundry room:

more great style and hardware:

I just love the simplicity, the faucets...all of it:

Wow. So many choices for paint and hardware,  so many easy ways (and so many major ways!) to make big changes...from removing cabinet doors to putting glass into the ones you have, painting them, removing the doors, to removing the entire cabinet...

I am in AWE of all kitchen designers!!!!!

Have a Wonderful Day!
