FRYD + DESIGN new online Magazine....!!!

20 Comments Edit
Jeannette Lunde from FRYD + DESIGN blog sent over her new online magazine, just launched! It's always a pleasure to be able to flip through a well, put-together online mag. You can view the NEW issue here. She included one of our Love Candy prints as well...super!

I really hope you all enjoy the weekend, mine has begun on a sour note. I went to PAINT my toenails and while I was bent down (feet flat on floor) I got up & heard a crack on my right knee!! It is now feeling a bit achy (no visible swelling though, thank God), but I am slightly limping around. I will cross my fingers and do a lot of praying that I don't have to go to the doctor.

1st Option in London...

22 Comments Edit
I LOVE drinking cappuccino from my Tassimo machine while reading blogs....it's one of my favorite things to do! Today, while sipping on my cappuccino, I came across 1st Option on Decor8 and remembered it's been awhile since I featured their fantastic locations!  For those of you scratching your heads wondering who 1st Option is, they are a full service agency based out of London that scouts out locations for films, television, photographers etc. 


It's obvious 1st Option knows how to represent their locations by providing high-quality images on their website for one to look at. Below are some of the ones I've selected (that I love) from the dozens they have listed, enjoy!

Sixx Design's Home Kitchen....

32 Comments Edit
I've been watching "9 By Design" on Bravo tv pretty much every Tuesday night since it premiered and I am soooo in love with Cortney & Robert's kitchen! Seriously, they have my dream kitchen, all white, built-in automatic coffee maker, gorgeous wood floors (or are they??) and cool dining table & chairs.  For those of YOU who don't know these two, (rob & cortney), they're the famous husband & wife design team known as Sixx Design. Apartment Therapy's the Kitchn featured their kitchen yesterday & I wanted to share a few of the shots with you.  


Does anyone know where their kitchen floor is from and is it hardwood or eco/engineered???!?!? 


For the interview & the full set of pics go here.

Crumbs Bake Shop....Cosmo Cupcake!

40 Comments Edit
If you're anywhere near West 40th street in New York & looking for a cupcake shop, try Crumbs. I've been hearing only good things about this bake shop. A couple of my friends have been there & have enjoyed the experience of biting into their SUPER moist cupcakes! 

As I've said before, we desperately need a good quality, home-made cupcake shop here in Las Vegas, one that doesn't serve you DRY CUPCAKES!  (Some of you may know which shop I am talking about.....hmmmm).  Anyhow, on my next visit to the NYC, I will make a point to stop at Crumbs & try their Cosmo cupcake. I don't think it has any relation to the actual cosmo drink though....so pretty!

Stylish Little Girl's Bedroom by Martensen Jones

50 Comments Edit
Lisa Martensen and Jan Jones put together this little girl's room and in my opinion, it is one of the prettiest I've seen online! I looked through their portfolio several times and there was no shortage of beautiful interiors! This ISN'T YOUR  TYPICAL girls bedroom...and perhaps that is what is so captivating to me. The use of blues & greens is always a great combo....what do you think?? For more of their work, visit their site here.

Sharing a Penthouse with a Sibling.... (D Magazine)

51 Comments Edit
DMagazine had an interesting article of two siblings sharing a penthouse space. Well, it's a 12,000 sq. ft space, so not really all that bad huh?? Well, you see... both Kari & brother Kirby Schlegel wanted the corner penthouse unit at the 'W', so their father stepped in & decided instead of buying them 2 INDIVIDUAL units, he figured why not create 2 separate apartments from it !?!

They searched out architects and designers Lionel Morrison & Jan Showers to handle the project. LUCKY kids aren't they? I do hope they're grateful. Kari was looking more for a Domino flair in her space while her brother Kirby wanted a darker, more masculine look to his apartment. Another cool feature is a common area they have for entertaining...Nice!  

Hope you all enjoy your weekend!
