Gorgeous transitional mix.. timeless

 

I am loving the mix in this house of rustic and traditional with a bit of vintage put in there!  So fun, it reminds me that we should design with what we love, to make a great mix of styles and to not be married to anything that would make the space anything but timeless. 

There is so much going on this month I cannot wait until I have a moment to share some of my latest projects with you and all of the great things that are coming for this year!

Organized workspace..

I am completely in love with this office space that I spied in Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles this month!  The offices of Barbara Westbrook are in a bungalow, I love the way the space is clean but really comfortable at the same time.  It being the New Year and all I know we are all on the organization train.. I love the baskets!

Vintage Urns

 

I have this deep love for vintage urns, I was browsing through the new container images from the boys at Atelier de Campagne and I am loving all of these..  Pairs of them make my heart skip a beat! 

Can you imagine them flanking a door or on the mantle?  Just so perfect to add that little bit of something with some great live plants added in.

French in black and white...

 

I am completely dreaming of visiting this amazing French Chateau - Château les Merles.  It looks so charming, I will have to see if I can work it into our trip to Europe next year.  I am already daydreaming of all the wonderful things that next year will hold for everyone.  I hope that it is a year of great things!

Can you imagine...  Have you started planning for next year (I know that I get a little ahead of myself sometimes)??

 Have a wonderful weekend!

this week I am loving..

 

 

It is funny there are some weeks when inspiration eludes me and then there are some where it is everywhere and I cannot keep it straight!  I am absolutely loving everything here!  I love vintage chairs and their time worn look, the lovely layers of grey from Atelier de Campagne, and Lauren at Pure Style Home's new textile line.  

Do you ever find too much inspiration?  I like to take mine and store it away for a day when I am feeling a little out of sorts and use it to get me back on track!

Rose Bowl Flea Market...

So we hit the Rosebowl flea market on Sunday morning, it was a beautiful day thank goodness!  I have been really happy with this flea market so far, it is full of great vendors and fantastic pieces!  I completely fell in love with these giant vintage posters and art pieces.  Each piece is mounted on a larger canvas for easy framing and storage.  I so wanted the Louis Vuitton piece but is a little bold for me.  I would be happy to point you in the direction of this vendor if only he had had a card for me.  He is at the Rosebowl for every show unless it is raining on the isle against the fence near the entry.

Some amazing stadium lighting just in case you needed some!  The boat too- there are some really interesting pieces to be found here.

I always love the vintage trophies and coral such a fun combination!

This vendor used some of our Lanet fabric for upholstery.  So so cute I thought!

Irons and Duck so fantastic as always!

I was so excited to see Robert again.  It has been months since I have bought any of his vintage textiles.  I got some great pieces!!  I love them for upholstery and pillows.  There are some vintage pieces that I bought that I would love to reproduce (if anyone has any info on having your own fabric made I would love it).

Fred was there from Grenouille,  I picked up this vintage ledger from him!  I cannot wait to frame it up for the wall!

 Of course there were some beautiful vintage clothing pieces, I just have not given into this idea yet.  My sister says I am crazy!

 I did get this super cute little hat though.  Fun and great for a little shade on my nose!!

We were completely taken by the pieces in Mark from Create a Vision Antiques.  My sister bought one of his converted lights for her living room.  Which looked so very cool when we put it in!  I am wishing I had one too!

My Bags were so full and so heavy!  I was ready to head out before we even walked the entire show.

We did not find any dining chairs for my sister but we did get her a fantastic little curved back settee, I cannot wait to see it reupholstered and in her space.  

I hope you are having a wonderful Monday so far!!
