I knew when I moved into my office that I would eventually want to invest in a rug or two since I’m not entirely 100% happy with the rugs I’m currently using. I have a natural color faux cowhide rug in the sitting area and a blush pink real cowhide under my desk. I actually …
Source: The Style Saloniste Nothing reminds me of ’80s decor more than these woven cane chairs… well, and that orange-stained oak that they seemingly built everything in, and country blue and bears and… OK, there are a LOT of things that remind me of ’80s decor, but these chairs epitomize the decade for me. However, …
The laundry room was one of the first rooms we finished in the house (second to the girls’ room) and that’s mostly because it’s so small and it didn’t take much to finish. I’m not sure why it’s taken me so long to share but probably because it seemed too simple, but since it is …
I started decorating for Christmas over the weekend, as many of you probably did too… because I just can’t do it until after Thanksgiving… and was pleasantly surprised at how much fun I had. Since this is the first holiday season I’ll be spending alone, I have to admit that I dreaded it a little …
Lilly Bunn Interiors is another designer I found via Joss & Main and fell in love with her portfolio. Some of these spaces are just so dreamy I want to move right in. I go through phases with my own home… sometimes I’m full-speed ahead with decorating and redecorating and sometimes I go for months …
Former Fashion Blogger and Independent Fashion Bloggers (IFB) founder Jennine Jacob has left the world of blogging to start Mrs. Peasy… the party in a box service that makes hosting beautiful parties easy peasy. Planning a picture-perfect party has never been easier with Mrs. Peasy, which removes the hassle of having to figure out which …
I have found a few really amazing home decor/design boutiques up here and while they all lean a little on the woodsy side, each has its own distinctive style and this is one of my favorites. Many offer interior design services as well. Just as you enter the Lake Arrowhead Village, there’s a gorgeous little …
A month or so ago I asked you guys to help me choose a mirror for my vanity area in my new office/workspace. While I really loved all of the mirrors, I went with the Ablenay Mirror from Lamps Plus because I thought it would really work well with my Italian lamps, as well as …
Lake House Pinterest Board via French GreyI have been known to, on more than one occasion, spy an amazingly large fallen tree branch while outside, decide it’s perfection, drag it home, wash it, and use it as decor in my own house. Note the word “fallen”, as I would never cut a tree and steal …
I have an area in my new office that is desperately in need of a vintage animal statue at least 24″ tall. And since I decided that the other day, I’ve been OBSESSIVELY searching for the perfect fit. Now, if I were say, looking for a bear or eagle wood carved sculpture, I could literally …
I love a great console table with a pair of dueling lamps at either end. It must be the symmetry of the look that is so pleasing to my visual eye. In fact, I was hoping to get the look behind our new sectional sofa on the window side, but low and behold, I don’t …
Our new sectional sofa finally arrived over the weekend {YAY!} and we are so excited to finally have a new and comfortable couch after living with one lacking that most important element, for the last 8 years. However, the squared angle of it has given me new challenges to work with in this very long …
Once or twice a week the husband and I go exploring in our new land and last week it was to Cedar Glen, which much like everything else, is about a five minute drive, and it is adorable. We stopped at the local hardware store to pick up a few supplies {snow shovel, gloves, kitchen …
When we first moved into this rental house from our tiny condo in the beginning of 2010, we were playing a lot of games with friends like Rock Band, Guitar Hero, etc. so I created our Rock and Roll Video Game Room. But over the past two years, and as I’ve gotten busier, our plastic …
I have a love affair with ceiling beams, I really do, so I’m super excited that our main room, my new studio and office space, as well as our master bedroom, are lined with ceiling beams. It’s unfortunate though, that downstairs, they’ve all been painted from their original dark stain to a taupe color, which …
