I haven’t posted many images of my abode lately.  There is not much going on right now.  A few changes here and a few mini makeovers there.  No major structural or cosmetic changes.  I am surprised that hubby and I haven’t ripped more carpet out yet.  Soon, I guess!

I recently re-organized my bedroom and switched out nightstands.  The room didn’t have alot of color before, so I brought in this kelly green table and placed my favorite lamp (a vintage find from a few years ago) on top.  I received some goodies from my sponsor, SanLori, that fit perfectly on my new nightstand.  Including the yummiest smelling candle, that is currently burning as I write this.  Holding an image of the hubby and I is a paper caddy and to rest my beverages on are these cute coasters.  I wish that I could say that my table will always look like this.  Between my daughter hijacking things early in the morning (while I am still sleeping) and magazines filling the space, it might look a little more “organic” after a few days.

Speaking of fall, Jaysons Home & Garden has a great collection of chairs that would work in any cozy and beautiful space.  Which one would you choose?  1,2,3 or 4?

Wood beams instantly warm up a room.

Camel tones and tufts.  Can’t go wrong.

Distressed furniture and books galore make a space feel so cozy.

Fall doesn’t require just orange tones.  Pale, clean colors can mix well with all colors.

Cozy kitchens.

Quilts!

Modern mixed with rugged.

This has nothing to do with fall.  I just love it!!

a new found blog (for me) that I love and…

a new found magazine that I love.  Both need to be translated but oh so worth it!!!

What a great holiday it was yesterday!  Boise State had a victorious game last night!  Did any of you watch it??  A bunch of family and friends gathered at my aunt’s house.  We yelled and yelled and prayed and yelled some more.  Boise has become quite the football town.  We are proud of our Broncos!

Anyways, back to design.  My good friends just moved into a 90 year old farm house and they are slowly restoring it and redoing each room.  Above is a sneak peek.  I am in love!

I love this Take A Look!  Brooke, a stay at home mom who also dabbles in sewing and styling has created such a fun space for her family.  This 1950’s traditional home is full of vintage goodness.  Brooke and her husband Adam, a photographer, have slightly different design tastes.  Brooke is all about vintage bohemian and her hubby is more modern.  They have done a great job mixing their aesthetics!!

Brooke mostly shop estate sales and thrift shops as well as garage sales but has a deep deep love for Anthropologie.  She also loves Etsy because she prefers one of a kind over mass production any day.  Her favorite design sites include Apartment Therapy, the marion house book, decor8, sfgirlbybay, Bloesom, Design* Sponge and your truly.  (Brooke, did you just say that to make me feel better??  Haha.  JK.)  Her favorite magazines are Dwell, Country Living and Living Etc.

I must say that my favorite room in Brooke’s home is this bedroom.  (Above.)  It feels very modern french.

Great job Brooke!!!
