Playful Art

I have another great Etsy find for you.  How adorable would these prints be, framed in a white frame with a wide white matte, for a baby or children’s room?!? Typically I’m a bit afraid of amusement parks or carnivals.  The rides either scare the you-know-what out of me or they make me toss my cookies.  The only reason that I tend to end up there with friends and family is that I have an extreme passion and hunger for any form of fried dough.  Enough said.

  Snow Day and a Good Book

With our first truly snowy day of 2012 up here in Maine all I want to do today is curl up in front of the fire with a good book. Any one of these fireplaces will do!

Obviously set up for a wedding.  All you have to do is take out the chairs, toss down and plush rug and a sofa or two and you’re all set.

So traditional in design and then you look up and see they are rockin’ a crystal chandelier.  Nice!

Oh look!  My favorite chair and a superbly detailed fireplace with wood storage.  Love it!

Perfect for the kids.  Now I just need to add a cozy overstuffed chair so I could supervise the coloring in comfort.

Heaven.

Just in case you’re curious what I’m currently reading, IQ84 by Haruki Murakami, my Kindle says I’m 2% done and I’m already hooked.

  Just Hanging Around. Stalking Anthropologie…

… and I came across this love-bug of a chair.  It’s not for everyone but if money wasn’t an object how fun would this be for a playful chair in an office.

Anthropologie: Bertram Chair, Florence

Obviously you would need just the right space for this and it would need to be mellowed out/complimented with just the right surroundings.  I’m thinking the Hayes Console from Mitchell + Gold would work nicely as the desk.

  Yoga For Everyone

I came across this print on Etsy this morning and it cracked me up!  Yoga truly is for everyone. By the way, if you haven’t figured it out yet I’m a bit of a dork.

Yes, yes and yes!  Who doesn’t adore the Saarinen tulip chair!?!  Add three cool cats and the Nelson Ball Clock and you are good to go.

  Family In Town

Hi Folks! Sorry for being absent the past few days.  I’ve had my parents in town and we have been having so much fun exploring Maine together.  It has been years and years and years since my Dad has been in the Maine area.  Luckily we have a few leaves left up here for everyone to peep.  Word on the weather street is that we have a big storm heading our way.  Maybe that will mean that they have to stick around for a few more days.  Fun!  The one thing that I’ve realized having family up is that I could really use a few more comfy chairs for people to sit and visit.  Here is one option I’m thinking about:

  West Elm Love

Loving these paper mache animal busts.  Perfect for both the designer in me and the vegetarian in me!

How fabulous is the grey paint on this wall!?!  Love!

Getting in the mood for Thanksgiving.  Totally diggin’ these dessert plates.

What a cute idea to put the platters on the wall for holiday decor.
