Fabulous New Additions From Porter Teleo Wall Coverings!



I am back from Bermuda as of today! I will miss those gorgeous pale coral beaches and Azure blue waters but I am happy to be plugged in again. Thank you for all the well wishes for a wonderful vacation! 
I was thrilled to receive a message from Porter Teleo upon checking the emails I received while away.
They sent me the latest wonderful designs for wall coverings and I couldn't wait to share them. If you read this blog  you know that I love great wall treatments and paper, so I am always looking for new and cool ones to share! I hope you enjoy these as much as I do, stay tuned I will be posting some awesome images from "Bermudaful" in the next few days!

Back Into The Swing Of Things!

So cool - Houzz!




I must admit I get a bit jealous when I see my nieces run from swing to swing at the local park! I remember the carefree days of trying to touch the sky with our toes or just hanging on a swing chatting with a friend. Well those days can be ours again with a grown up swing.  Yes, I found some cool looking yet functional and fun suspended seating that are sure to please the inner child in all of us.
These swings may not allow us to touch the sky but they will definitely let us sway in the breeze and daydream like a child.  What do you think? Adult swings a fun idea, I think so! Have a great weekend everyone.



I love this one from Serena &Lily.

Find Your Summer Style!

I cannot believe it's already summer. I also cannot believe that my husband and I celebrated our 20th anniversary yesterday! Time goes by so quickly and summers come and go but you can have summer style anytime!  It's so nice to have some go to items to pull out per season to freshen up your home. There  are easy things to add and some that you may love so much that you keep them in your space all year long! Here are a few pieces that I think may bring a bit of summer to your home, and let me know what you think is the quintessential summer accessory that one may add for that wonderful summer feel!




Adding some great hats and rustic rope elements quickly gives a summer feel!!
Great vintage hat to start your collection from Etsy!

Love this summer collection. Just add blues glass and weather wood and you are set!Cottagefurnishings!

Lovely blue glass to add to your space from Decorpad.


Okay so blue is not your color how about a great coral lamp from Wayfair!


Again, Cottage Furnishings shows a lovely summer collection of lamps and jars!

For a more sophisticated summer feel how about a real coral lamp! This one is so great I think I would leave it all year long! Shell Horizons

Bring on the Nautical birds!Tuck this on into a book shelf or side table and you are set!

Love this foursome, its chic and yet nautical too! Etsy!

How about turning these into coat or better yet beach hat hangers for your mudroom!

Aerin Lauder At It Again!

 Is there anything this woman cannot do! She is a true style icon of this generation, and I just love her!
I was very disappointed not to be able to attend her reveal of fabric line for Lee Jofa, but a sick Mother took priority of course.  My Mother has been in the hospital for 8 days and now finally is one the mend so I am starting to really feel like blogging again.  
I can see that Aerin's reveal was a hit with fellow bloggers, so I couldn't wait to check out her line myself! I find her line to be refreshingly traditional with a twist on color. I picked one favorite from  each line but for more please visit Lee Jofa!
