trending: {always indigo}

 

No matter what I always seem to come back around to blue... lately (the past couple of years) it has been vintage indigo for my own home.  I love the soft details of the fabrics and the unique feeling to each piece.  Lately though it has been a little bit of an obsession as I fall a little deeper.  Paints, wall coverings, accessories, porcelain and art seem to be all around and though I am not one to over commit I thought you might like a little blue in your life too...

Oh my goodness here we are again with the whole Monday business!  Well let's make it a good one.. I always start the day with a list like a mile long and for some reason it is either a get it all done day or a get NOTHING done day.  I finally got my office cleaned out so it is like a fresh start here this week!  Here's a little fall neutral inspiration for us all this week!  

(The best way to start a Monday is to make plans for Saturday!) 

Happy Monday all!

Grey and light...

 

This beautifully restored home in New Orleans is right up my alley.  I love the light greys and bright spaces.  Perfection I think..  The doors, the stairs the flooring, what else is there to say really?

Love. Love. Love.

Restored beauty in Provence

 

Happy Thursday!  It is almost the weekend again and there is so much to do in these last days of summer!  I am dreaming that we are on holiday in this beautiful part of France but I will just have to settle for the inspiration of the pictures.

Simply in Grey and White

 

I fell for this almost all white interior, the paneling and the wood is to die for, so simple and just right I think.  Old wood and touches of grey make it just about perfect for me!

Holiday magic

 

I came  across this gorgeous space and had to share.  Love love the garland and the antlers.  How are you doing on your holiday decor and shopping?  Still no tree here- hoping for tonight if it is not raining too badly, shopping is going a bit better.

I love sharing DIY inspiration, and these stairways are exactly that: inspiring! 

What better way to intimately personalize your home than by imprinting 

your most personal style directly onto the heart of your home: your stairs.

Afraid to commit to the permanency of paint?
Try vinyl decals, which are repositionable and removable.
