Etsy Rocks!

The main reason I love Etsy is the accessibility it provides for us design enthusiast to items you're unlikely to find at a store. I came across Etsy Seller Jolie Marche while researching burlap pillows. How fantastic are these pillows? I love the vintage feel, it reminds me of something Joni would use in her designs. I can't wait to use a few of these amazing pillows in one of my own interiors.



Have a wonderful Weekend full of treasure hunting!!

DVF at Home!!!

When you think of Diane Von Furstenberg you think of her timeless wrap dresses which has been a staple in every modern woman's closet since the 70's. Her home in Connecticut represents her elegant yet eclectic taste. Take a look around and enjoy a tour of her sophisticated country home.



Could this women be any more elegant and beautiful? Age is nothing but a number!!!

Happy Thursday!!!!

New Project!!!!!

I can't wait to show you what I do with this ugly duckling!! I actually have two others exactly the same. I'm half way done and to say it has been an extreme amount of work would be an understatement. I plan to keep one and sell the other two once I'm done refinishing them. I can't wait to share the after photos with all of you.

I hope you're having a fabulous Wednesday!!!!


P.S. I didn't mean for you to see the mess in the background :)

Going Neutral!!!

We all know I'm one to love colors in my interiors however today I felt like going monochromatic. I really need to make room in our house for a neutral space just for moi. I guess I'm really in the mood for some calmness specially since I didn't accomplish much at the doctor's yesterday and now I have to wait until Tuesday's for the results. I hope you'll have a wonderful weekend and will be spending your Mother's Day with your love ones. I plan to spend my weekend working on a million projects I still have to catch up with specially since I need to keep myself occupied and in a zen state of mind.





Sorry for all of my rambling, I just tend to do that when I'm nervous. Thank you for all of your well wishes and I hope you got to enjoy the images!!!!

Anxious!!!


This room is the perfect feminine color combination without feeling to girlie. I'm in love with the chairs, the fabric is perfect for a pair of chairs like the ones in the image. The mirror tables are my favorite feature in the room and the wall color ties everything perfectly. I hope you're having a better day than me. I'm on my way to the doctor with the hopes for some good news!!!!

Thank God is Thursday!!!!

Are Foo Dogs Overrated?

I have a special room in my heart for my foo dogs however I wonder if they are overrated. They have appeared in magazines everywhere from the pages of our beloved Domino to our recent issue of Lonny. Do you feel the trend of displaying your foo dogs in your home is very circa 2006 or do you think they are timeless? Enjoy a few of my favorite images of foo dogs!!!!
