apparently there’s been a trend of indoor swings that i totally missed! probably because no one i know has a swing in their home. but boy, do i love the idea of it! kinda fly.
or as i like to call it, the love hut! how freakin’ cute is this thing? i discovered designer/decorator/author justina’s fabulous blog just in time for valentine’s day. her love fort was featured on design sponge last year and comes complete with directions. it seems pretty simple to put together as long as you have the space to create it, which i don’t. maybe a mini love hut?
justina also designed a super cute printable valentine’s day card that you can print from her site, check it out here.
i love everything about the swedish waterfront home of interior designer marie olsson nylander. the story goes that marie and her husband visited this home several times before deciding to purchase it. after making the big buy, the couple reconditioned every inch of the 70s built home. and what an amazing home it is! see the video that follows where marie talks about her home.
i’m so gonna do this to a chair one day. yes, i get excited at the thought of spray painting the upholstery of a really ornate chair. they probably didn’t use spray paint though. hmmm…i’ll have to google that. but anyway, isn’t this chair all that and a bag of chips?
back in the day when i had a little more space and a lot more time i loved finding furniture pieces and painting them. learning to reupholster furniture is def on my bucket list. these pieces are so striking with bold colors and fabrics patchwork-ed together. luv!
these pillows are über cute!! probably a bit too fem for my husband, but i love ‘em! designed by angie in north carolina, i think these pillows would make any couch happy.
when i was a little girl my mother bought me a wonderful quilt with bold, colorful pictures of an elderly couple (farmers, i think), houses, trees in reds, greens, blues and yellows… oh, i just loved that thing. the ones below are pretty cool too.
did you peep the chair? the one tucked up there to the left? no? well, here it is again.
