darkest black walls

 

I am completely in love with this snippit of a space.  The dark doors as a devider are super fun - we could totally do that - love the lights// love the chairs.

Happy Friday my friends...

Grey living...

 Dare I say it has been difficult as of late to find inspiring interior images...  (shh..) I have been overwhelmed by seeing the same images again and again.  No matter how I re arrange them in my head I am not feeling inspired.  It is a problem that stems from my occupation I do believe!  Sometimes I need a little breather to recharge the creative batteries and get started again.  This however is AMAZING // deep contrast // vintage mixed with new // grey // need I say more.

Have a wonderfully creative day!

Weekend Wishes...

 

After a busy week it is so nice to have a couple of days to relax, don't you agree?  We have family in town and plan to spend a bit of time pool side..

Some dreamy things for this weekend....

I am loving this series... cannot wait to go on Safari one day!

We are planning an early fall trip and I want this whole outfit just for one day.

This is the perfect girly accent!

As fall it quickly approaching I can share these hot little numbers with you.. I love mine!

If you follow me on instagram you know how I love caprese, I might need to try this.

Have a wonderful Saturday!

Dark trimmed windows and doors...

 

I am working with a client in Laguna Beach who is building from the ground up and we were chatting yesterday about windows and doors... we ended up deciding on dark details for the exterior.  I love this look and was excited to find so many wonderful examples to back up our ideas...  What do you think?  Would you go dark?

France once again...

 

It is official... I am getting ready for another trip to Paris in a few weeks and we are bringing back our first container.  I am a little nervous I will admit but excited at the same time.  We will stay in Paris and shop the flea markets there for the first week mixed with much site seeing and relaxing around the city, then it is off to Normandy to shop with Sharon from My French Country Home.  I am so excited to see her again and experience a bit more of her amazing everyday life!

These are just a few of the photos that we snapped on our last trip, some you may have seen and some are new.  I was just going through them and thought I would share some of my current favorites with you.  I have a few more posts lined up from our last adventure to share before we leave too!

Visual inspiration

 

A little visual inspiration for a Wednesday morning..  It is funny how a group of images can inspire my creativity..  The soft color and texture makes my mind race with possibilities..

Detailed..

 What a wonderful gift to be able to create such detail... I wish that we made more things well these days, so much is just slammed together with just the thought of how cheap it can be made and how quickly..  I love to find people who believe in the quality of things and the talent and time it takes to make them well.. As I get older I find a need for things to be made well and stand the test of time with grace and beauty like this..

I hope you are enjoying your Spring so far!  The weekend was beautiful here and the week promises to be warmer and full of surprizes!  Happy April!

garden doors...

 

One garden mystery I love is what will come back year after year.. somethings are planted and never return but my favorites are the ones that keep coming back and surprising me each year.  It is like opening a door to a beautiful space that is always changing.  

I hope you have a wonderful weekend planned.  We have nothing planned which is the most wonderful thing of all I think.  This way I can take my time in the morning thinking of things to do while I day dream...

Fresh air..

 

I think it is about time we opened up the doors and windows to let the fresh air in.  I am so in need of warmer days, we have had some beautiful teases here in California but I need a little more!  

Things here have been so busy and so amazing I cannot wait to share all of the new pieces we have online and some great upcoming giveaways here on the blog!  It is going to be a great couple of weeks as we ease into Spring, I do hope you will join us for everything!

Black entry doors

 

I love the contrast of a black or espresso door.  We have a pink Wisteria planted to go over ours and I am so hoping that this is the year it grows across the front of the house.  These are a few of my favorites that I have collected and were great inspiration for me.  When we redid our kitchen this year I had the painters paint the interior of my doors black also just for a change in the space and I love it. 

Are you a fan of the high contrast?

Dark doors

 

I loved the feeling of this space, it feels lived in and well loved.  That tree I think is what really makes it come a live.  Just that little bit of life in the greenery is perfection.

working towards the dream...

 

I love all of the intricate details of Paris, I love that she stays there being beautiful just waiting for us to visit once again.  I have missed her this year!  We are planning a trip for Spring and I cannot wait to see how little she has changed!  

I hope you have a dreamy weekend!  

We will be here working hard to be able to visit next Spring!
