{ Inspired by: Skye McAlpine ]

The kitchen of Skye McAlpine, a magician who makes every morsel look positively stunning, is one of my favorites. It combines an earthy, organic quality, with a really livable femininity. You can check out this podcast over at Tea and Tattle, to hear more about the lovely Skye! To see more of this wonderful kitchen, be sure to check out the fantastic design duo, the Jersey Ice cream Co.

As the weather suddenly starts to cool, I find myself thinking of friends, eating warm soup, and spending time in cozy spaces. Happy fall darlings.

{ Serene }

I love the muted serenity of this room. It has been beautifully layered with texture 

and pattern, yet has kept from feeling fussy. 

{ Happy Weekend }

     So much of the week is taken up with running errands, working and keeping up 

     with the laundry. This is, of course, such a constant part of our lives and we can

     certainly find pleasure in these everyday tasks. But let's have some indulgence

     this weekend. Spend some time with the people you love, have a glass of wine,

          and drink in all of the wonderful moments. Happy weekend darlings.

{ Back to Black }

I love how warm and dramatic black can be! So much so, that I am taking the plunge and painting my own entry hall a luscious shade of black.

{ Sweet Summertime }

{ Still in Love }

It doesn't matter how many times I see this room, it still looks fresh and current. It always makes me smile, it's layers and color, and the way you can tell the person loves their space.

{ Happy Weekend }

Take some time this weekend to read, eat wonderful food, and recharge your soul. Find your quiet, and let the calm soak into every fibre of your being.

{ The Spaces in Between }

Sometimes there are the spaces in between where you are going, and where you have been.

Often times, these places are neglected as being unimportant or awkward to design.

But as in life, even the uncomfortable times and odd hallways can have their own beauty. If we take the time to lavish some love on them, they can become magical.

{ Sunroom Inspiration }

I am so enjoying gathering inspiration for our new house, which includes a lovely sunroom!

I think I will fill it with plants, with a place to fall asleep in the sun to dream summery dreams.

{ Letters Home }

I have taken my courage, let the wind catch my wings, and flown away on a grand new adventure. Moving to a place I have never known, I am looking forward to the friends I have yet to meet and the home I will begin to build.  All of this would not have been possible without my faith in God's guidance, and the love of the people I hold closest to my heart. I will not forget the wandering conversations, encouragement, laugh out loud moments, and the warmth of our friendship.
Thank you, and, I love you.

{ Feeling the Love }

I am in love with the first blush of summer. Sun is streaming in through my windows, and the motes of dust look beautiful dancing on rays of sunshine.

{ Black Beauty }

Velvety and rich, balance your light spaces with some lovely black. 

{ Fascination }

I love when a room has lots of interesting layers, and a touch of whimsy.

{ It's Spring! }

I'm soaking in all of the sunshine and loving every green leaf and shoot!

{ Moody & Dramatic }

I am very smitten lately, with these dark and dramatic bedrooms we are seeing in interiors now.
