Light and bright {a favorite}

So you know how you love a photo of a room and you are a little surprised when you see the entire space, well I am sure you have seen this one before but I came across all of the photos together on pinterest and I am so in love with this space still!!!  It is so dreamy!

It was featured in Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles back in 2007 and it is still one of my all time favorites so many years later.

Happy Saturday!!

New Lighting from Arteriors

 

I am totally loving all of the new pieces from Arteriors, these are just a few of my favorites!!!

You can tell I am partial to the darker finishes right now.  I am looking forward to next week as we get closer to the holidays things get busier but much more fun around here!  We will be having a giveaway from one of our wonderful sponsors here on greige and some updates.

I hope you are having  great weekend so far!

House Beautiful is gorgeous in grey

 

What a great entryway and overall design.  I love all of the different greys going on in here.

Very masculine and fun and I love the headboard in the Katana fabric!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend planned!  I cannot believe we are already moving so quickly into November. More work on the bathroom here and fun family stuff.

Simple bath design

So our bath is coming along nicely, I am getting excited to see it all coming together!  I dream of a space like this that is simple clean and very unique, I love the texture of the natural stone and the concrete look of the tub and shower.  The sink is fantastic.  We decided to do the wall mounted fixtures above our vessel sinks, I am keeping my fingers crossed that it all goes well!

The week is coming to an end and I am ready for a little rest and relaxation.

Rich in detail

My goodness it has been quite a week already and it is only Wednesday!  I am loving the moldings in this space.  They are the  perfect inspiration for my Family room wood detailing that we are planning for next year.

Also, don't miss the latest issue of House of Fifty out now!

Dreaming {by invitation}

Dreams are such a fun thing.  I have so many but there is one that keeps jumping out at me.  I think it maybe more of a wish than a dream but I am truly not sure what the difference is any more.

 I dream of having a wonderful place in France to spend time in with my family, when I say time I mean real time where we eat together outside, we cook together, take hikes and walks and learn about the surrounding areas.  A home base to travel to new worlds together, just us, just for fun!

 

This beautiful home would be filled with my favorite of all favorites!  Astier de Villatte dishes and furnishings mixed with amazing French finds from Brocantes and local artisans.  Things would be striped down and natural just like the surroundings and the food.  It would be amazing we would cook and read.

We would ride bikes around just so we could see everything and stop anywhere. 

Eating outside as often as possible would be the norm..

My mind might even be free enough to have time to create some new classics based on old methods.

 

I would have the time and patience to learn how to draw and possibly paint.

A girl can dream right!

What about you what do you dream about?

Please take a minute to stop by and see everyone who participated today!!
