Wee Bit of Indigo

This one's for you, Mb.

Hello, Hello! Where did the summer go? Back to school is the official motto in our house. Those long summer days are behind us and homework and soccer practice fill up the calendar. Nonetheless, my head is in the clouds, or, more accurately, at the beach. I want to park my seat on that chaise above and gaze mindlessly at the pool + ocean view. Wishful thinking, but a girl can dream.

In The Kitchen

Kitchens are utilitarian, functional, even work horses, but rarely are they sexy. However, this masculine specimen definitely fits the bill. Those floors make my heart race.

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall...

Man, that wall packs a punch! Bold, graphic, dynamic this dining nook is casual elegance at its best. This so could have gone the route of crafty, happy hands. However, that fabulous greige faux bois wallpaper, those kicky stripes, and the vintage-y furniture make for some fine, fine dining. Well played.

Modern Master

Amazing attention to detail, an eye for texture and contrast, and absolutely jaw-dropping exteriors...all from the portfolio of Dutch master, Piet Boon.

I have become a pinning machine.

In fact, this is the very reason why I avoided the lure of Pinterest for so long. I knew I would get sucked into the abyss. Knew it was dangerous to even dip a toe in. But, alas, it is too late. I'm hooked. So here are the fruits of my "labor"...enjoy!

As for me, well, I'm off to pin some more...but you knew that was coming, didn't you. ;0)
