spring flowers

 

How I dream of warmer spring days filled with beautiful mornings, flowers and greenery.  I trust you have enjoyed your weekend my friends?  

I love the feeling of this mixed up space, eclectic and still a possible working environment.  I think that the painting makes it for me and the flowers of course.  I am curious how many of you collect little things like this, I know I do although I try very hard to keep it to a very edited version.  I struggle with the old and the new pieces and typically the old pieces win out because they hold more memories even if they are not all my memories.  Do you pick up little things here and there or do you collect along a theme?

new to me: kiki and polly

 

I love to happen upon a shop that I adore and find beautiful new pieces to greet me.  Kiki and Polly is one of my favorites and I happened to come across a pin from her shop the other day.  She has the cutest new pieces up.. I am loving them all.  Maybe I will stock up for little gifts for this year.

Do you buy art as gifts?  I know art is subjective but do you know what your loved ones love in the way of artwork?  I love to receive it so in turn I love to give it.

boho bedroom

 

Is this not the most charming room ever?  I love the layers and the split in the paint with the faded details.  So simple and amazing!

Wishing you a wonderful Tuesday.  It feels like the holiday season is really starting to kick in around here.  How about where you are?  Are you feeling it?  Does it feel like a pinch or are you easing into the whole thing?

Horse art....

 

As I am sure you know I have a weakness for artwork with horses.  I saw these new pieces from Lisa at Kiki and Polly on line I was thinking how cute they would be in a job... love them.  But I was thinking also that there must be more horse art lovers out there like me.  So here are a few of my favorites.  I like to share!

modern greige

 

We can all use a little modern once in a while and in my opinion this one is very fine!  I love the clean lines and the cocktail table is fantastic!

Art Statement: Gallery walls

 

I know I know.. we have seen it all before... I am wondering though do you prefer the mismatched sizing of a gallery wall or the organized defined area of pieces that are all framed the same?

I am a mismatched girl myself and have them all around the house filled with family pictures and vintage documents alike.  I am running out of walls though and need to figure something out as I still love artwork and will definitely need to add more to my collection..

I am loving the bottom pic of the vintage oil paintings..

Making a statement with art

 

I love art that makes a statement!  This space is so simple and the artwork is so bold....

Simple but definately make a statement in a space.
