Building a Room Continued





I keep going back and forth on the dark furniture vs the white-- I actually own the low dresser and would really like to pick up the lingerie chest and the piano key chest! I'm going to have to think on this room and figure out which way I want to go with finishes. I would imagine if I did white furniture -- I'd want a deep dark mahogany floor. All of the dressers are Stanley Furniture.

The top image of the settee is actually from Martha Stewart-- I think it would make the perfect accent to this room (or any room for that matter)-- I LOVE LOVE LOVE this piece!

Building a Room


Ballooning Over Paris"Ballooning Over Paris by I. Lane

This is an idea I have to build or "design" a complete room virtually with objects I find on the net or in magazines. I was inspired by an image I saw of a canvas print you can order on allposters.com. Now I normally have a very mod inspired taste-- but I think this would be a perfect design for either a baby's room or a shabby chic guest room. Right now I know where I want to go with the design for this room but I want to hunt down pictures to convey my ideas to you! I'll start with posting the inspiration and continue adding to this room as I go!

My new FAVORITE shop!

One of my friends recently introduced me to a shop down town Cincinnati called "High Street" -- it had the most beautiful and unique items in it! Please visit the shop virtually if you don't have
the opportunity to do so in person!












One thing I was introduced to @ High Street was Lodis brand purses! I fell in love immediately!
