Well...never made it to the beach yesterday...or today. I am DEFINITELY leaving tomorrow. I kept trying to get it together to leave but I felt like my feet were stuck in concrete. One excuse after another...it's raining....I don't feel like packing....my back hurts.....I am going to miss my dogs....and the biggest one is I DO NOT FEEL LIKE GOING DOWN THERE TO CLEAN.
Just trying to keep it real. But OK I am definitely leaving tomorrow morning. I swear.
So just a few random pictures. I went to a small showhouse last week. Actually 2 of the three were decorated by a store. One by
Room and Board and the other by a really modern store called
Cantoni. The problem is when one store does the whole house...well you know what I am going to say. It looks like too much of a showroom. I LOVE modern but I like it mixed in with other styles.
The middle one was a few different designers and I found it so much more interesting.
Here are a few shots I took.
I took this because I liked the art and I thought it was interesting how they used those clips to mount it.
A closeup. Cute huh?
Look at the top of these curtains...neat idea on hanging them.
Yes. Me likey. Very much.
Now I have seen the molds done a lot of different ways...but this was cool. I have some...where the heck are they???
Close up...just using a L bracket.
OK...see this mink pillow? What a great idea right. Well I was talking to Angie [CL queen] and she told me that she bought 3 mink pieces on Goodwill.com for really cheap. Of course...what was I thinking. Pictures...
Not the flip flops :)
So...mink pillows will be made. Here are a few more that she got.
and this little number.
Who wants one?????
I saw this the other day for $25...Geez...I need a truck to drive around in. Of course then I need a store cause I have a sofa. But I could change it. But then my husband might change wives. Decisions....
Finally got the cafe curtains up for my client. I am loving this type of window treatment right now. We just used a very light scrim for texture.
Ok...I have a little sneak peek of
Angie's house. We are still accessorizing but it is starting to look really cute.
Sofa...CL
Table [painted] CL
Fabric for pillow....I found at GW . One window panel for $5.00. It is a very expensive heavy linen fabric.
Lamp from Scott's. OK maybe that was a little over her usual budget but I convinced her she needed it.
That is all you are getting :)
Oh yeah...I have been pretty smug about you guys talking about all the chairs you keep buying. Inner monologue "Whew...glad I am over the chair thing. I am happy with what I have". "Crazy bloggers". OK....never say never and what a joke....I bought 2 sets of chairs this week. Yes you read that right. WTF. Change is coming I guess.
Think of me driving 5 hours by myself tomorrow. Bored. Eating "Cheese It's". The best. NOT cheese Nips. Crappy.
