Vintage Chenille Elephants....so cute!
Who would've thought elephants could be this cute in sooo many colors... I've highlighted this shop, Vintage Chenille before, but I really wanted to feature the variety of plush elephants this time around! These handmade cuties make a great gift for babies & the best part is, they're only $15! Totally cute, totally affordable. Get yours at Vintage Chenille..
Fabric options
Today has NOT been a good day for me online. I am having major problems with my connection, mail server, browser and FTP...! I managed to get this post up with a little help from my production manager & on another computer. I received so many emails about fabric suggestions , so here are a few I recommend for a DIY headboard. Of course, it all depends on the color scheme of the room you want. But, you can always choose a fabric & work around it.
New York Times.....defining gorgeous.
The New York Times always amazes me with their Home & Garden section. For example, this huge residence (once a church) in the city.....wow. Can you imagine what it's like to live there? Do you notice how you can look out the large window while in the shower? Gorgeous, barely describes it.
One piece of art...by Fieldguided
I really like embroidered pieces of art, and this one is one of the cutest I've see so far! It's by artist Geoff and Anabela of Fieldguided. With electric blue thread & pretty floral fabric, this will make a perfect gift for anyone! (Quote by Joanna Newsom).
Lofty spaces...
Living Etc. Magazine always manages to showcase some amazing spaces. Living in an open space has always been a dream of mine, well, I did live in a loft space once in New York & it was quite an experience! I remember the best part was that we had an entire wall of windows, so beautiful. I'm aware lofts aren't for everyone & they aren't all gorgeous, it's raw space & you have to like the style. Have you ever lived in a loft space? Would you consider living in one???
These were a few of my favorites from the Living Etc. website, hope you enjoy them!

Thanks Lauren....!!
After blogging about Lauren Nicole Love's work here, I was pleasantly surprised to find these 2 prints in my mailbox from her! Thanks to Lauren Nicole Love for sending me her artwork, they're now hung up on my art wall, loooove them! Check out Lauren's work here.
Lots of Blues....Skona Hem
I thought this was quite an interesting home via Skona hem. Most of us wouldn't think of painting our kitchen cabinets in blue...but I really think it fits well in this particular home. The reason being, the blue continues throughout the home, which gives it a good flow. What do you think of this blue kitchen? Do you think it works?
Beauty, Success and a great job.....Jenna Lyons
Jenna Lyons, is the creative director of JCrew and she is such a fashion icon. I remember seeing her home for the first time in Domino magazine. Her brownstone apartment, her large wardrobe closet....so beautiful! I found this interview with Jenna Lyons at the Huffington Post and was such a pleasure to read...don't you just love her office?? You can read it for yourself here.
Movies to watch out for....
I'm really looking forward to seeing these 2 films - "An Education" and 'White on Rice": see the trailers here & here for yourself.
