Rustic beauty...

The simplicity of the furnishings let the rustic texture of the wall really direct the feeling of this room.  I adore the hand made chandelier, wanted this one bad for myself! 

I hope you are making plans for this coming weekend!  We are on the countdown for school to end so we can spend our days poolside and playing.. but for now our weekends are full of working on the yard and landscape here.

creating interest with wallpaper...

 

I am not the biggest fan of wallpaper (I have had to strip a bathroom of paper that was put on with industrial strength glue) but this is pretty amazing if you ask me.  I love the bold graphic nature of these pieces and their ability to completely change the feeling of age in the rooms.

What do you think are you a traditional wallpaper fan?

Segreto: Secrets to Finishing Beautiful Interiors

A little while back I was lucky enough to receive a copy of this amazing book,  Segreto: Secrets to Finishing Beautiful Interiors.  I am a sucker for design books, they are stacked around my office and home here and there just waiting for a free moment to be opened and explored.  This book is a fabulous resource of inspiration images and information from Segreto on their work.  It offers a view into some of the most beautiful homes I have seen and information on how these looks were achieved.  With over 300 pages of interior photos and details it is a great piece to add to the design library and the cocktail table alike. 



"Explore the breathtaking rooms within and enjoy a multitude of design styles by the bevy of talented interior designers, builders, architects and homeowners that Leslie has been privileged to work with through the years. Segreto: Secrets to Finishing Beautiful Interiors gives you the knowledge of what is available today and the confidence to create an ambiance that best reflects the particular period or design style you desire, by simply applying the right finish." from Segreto.
