Kitchen of the week

WOWSA! This showroom kitchen is stunning. Love the details on the cabinetry. I'm usually not a fan of black counter tops at all but in this kitchen, it works.

Kitchen of the week

From the chandeliers, to the giant island (LOVE the island colour against the white cabinets), the wallpaper and that little office nook...this kitchen is ultra glam and oh so fab!

Final wallpaper contenders!

Bear with me...I know there have been a lot of pictures but here are the final contenders in my wallpaper search!
I seem to be drawn to geometric patterns as well as floral...hmmm a geometric floral??? OK, so that doesn't exist, (as far as I know) so I guess I will have to decide between the two!





I love this pattern and the colour. Love the shiny metalic look (Imperial Trellis strikes again...a sign??? Hmmm)


I'm loving the whimsy of this pattern (maybe for a little girl's room???)



Oh so many to choose from...let me know your thoughts!

Happy Valentine's Day Lovlies!!!!!!
Hope your day is filled with some of these.....




Today's rooms are Valentines Day inspired...only pink and red here today! I'm LOVING the pink curtains and those chairs! Faboosh!











Can you tell that pink is my FAV colour??? Barely any pops of red (I apologize)...I would seriously consider the pink Louis chairs...they are way too fab. If only I could convince my husband!

Imperial Trellis

Happy Sunday morning! Hope you are relaxing and enjoying this beautiful day! I love lazy Sundays like this. Just made breakfast for the family and now I'm just curled up on the couch browsing through design websites (OK, and maybe a few gossip websites or two), sipping on vanilla tea with my handsome hubby beside me...bliss!

As I mentioned previously, I'm trying to narrow down my wallpaper choices...and let me warn you, there are quite a few! Here is the second contender, let me introduce you to my  favourite love, Imperial Trellis.

Some of the houses shown here have chosen to go BOLD with their colours and I LOVE it! Although, I wouldn't choose those colours for my home. If I were to choose Imperial Trellis, I'd probably opt for a taupe, brown, or grey.


Oh, but this blue is quite fab!!!


I'm thinking this is a good colour


I like the idea of doing a feature wall, as this pattern may be a little busy on all walls


This is Chloe Sevigny's entranceway with green imperial trellis wallpaper



Love this colour


This colour may be it!


Like I said, I'm loving imperial trellis...found this great pillow at West Elm
