Photography for House Beautiful. Are you familiar with John Robshaw? He’s a textile designer with a fascination for Indian patterns and bright colors. One of my favorite parts is how he combines multiple patterns (I counted 6 in one photo),…

Photography by Brooke Holm for The Design Files. Neon colors aren’t something that I ever thought I would see used successfully in home decor. Outside of homes in Back to the Future 2 and Cocktails, it’s just not a popular color. Until…

Spring is definitely starting to happen here in Ireland! I can see buds on trees and bushes, and some of the early indicators of warmer weather, like daffodils, are lining the back roads of County Kilkenny. It’s still a tricky…

Photography by Simon Watson for Elle Decor. I had to give up my beloved mini ficus when we moved, and feel the need to advertise for a replacement. “Must love pots, tolerate a bit of shade, be willing to clean air,…

Happy Monday friends! My focus this month is to organize and design a few of my “trouble” spots. The first, and easiest, is the upstairs bathroom. It’s the one I use daily, and my toiletries have just kind of spread…

I’m in need of chairs, the kind that you can sink into and have a good chat. The comfortable kind, placed across from the couch, in a reading loft, or beside a guest bed. We have none, yes, none, in…

I knew I had a problem when I walked in from a shopping trip with four baskets, and my husband responded with, “I guess you can never have too many baskets?” From wire to wicker, handmade to mass produced, I…

Photography by Stacey Brandford and Janis Nicolay. Looking at these photos from House & Home has me regretting the decision not to decorate our home. I put out the very few decorations we brought from the States, but they look…

Photography by Laziz Hamani via Arch Daily and Remodelista. Photography and Design by SR Gamble. Found via Fieldstone Hill Design.

  Photography by Unknown (via Becky Hill) and DWR (via French by Design). Drooling over this book tower, and am kicking myself again for not ordering one before we moved. I have yet to find a version in Ireland.

Droog, a hotel/work space/branding agency/lab in Amsterdam is blowing my mind. Go check out everything they do and you’ll be blown away as well. Found via Studio G.

Photography for Mi Casa Revista via Decorology. A short love letter to little alcoves and nooks. I have at least four in the new house, and I’m discovering the world of possibilities for each one. Nooks are the perfect spot to…

Photography by William Waldron for Architectural Digest. Twin beds used in guest rooms and kid’s rooms fascinate me. It’s such a great idea for a multitude of reasons. One, you have a sleepover-friendly room. Two, they’re more elegant and modern…

Can you believe these are digital visualizations by Viz Art and not an actual room? I couldn’t. But if you click here to view the rest of the photos you can see details (like the duvet cover) that are clearly…

Photography for Domino Magazine. As we enter late summer, my interests are turning towards cozier seating arrangements with plenty of rugs, fireplaces, pillows and throws. A warm and quiet place to chat with friends, sip a cup of coffee, or…

Photography by Pernille Kaalund for Heyhome. Attic rooms have been my favorite ever since a childhood friend’s father renovated their extra storage space into a bedroom and bathroom combo. There was something about the tucked away space that spoke to my…

  Photography for Skona Hem. From the elegant to functional, couches to consoles, entryways and mudrooms greet guests and give them a taste of what’s to come in your home. My favorite entryways have a lot of style with a…

Double Exposure Painting by Pakayla Biehn.

Loving these Fall 2012 colors from Pantone. Sea Fog and Rose Smoke combine to make a beautifully feminine room, soft Titanium and Whitecap Gray keep the pastels from overwhelming the eye. If pastels aren’t your thing, with a little editing…

Photography by Jennifer Daigle Photography via Glitter Guide. Loving this California home owned by Erika Brechtel. It proves that glamour and vintage modern aren’t mutually exclusive. Click here to see more of her home, as well as how she found her best…

Photography by Debi Treloar. Unmade beds always look so inviting to me. Are you the same?

One of my favorite parts of Spanish decor is the way tile is used as a colorful accent. No shy colors and subtle patterns to be found here! Just bold and beautiful yellows, blues, and more. 1. Made A Mano…

Ah, the arched doorways, stucco walls, wood beams, and terracotta details of Spanish Colonial style homes. Aren’t they just amazing? This is one of my favorite mood boards yet, mostly because it reminds me of the best parts of Nicaragua….

My parents famously decorated one of their first homes completely in white. I have yet to see a photograph from this home, and as I was yet unborn, I missed out on this 70′s inspired period in our family’s life….

I can’t tell you how much I’m loving brown + white + gray right now. I’m seeing it everywhere, and I’m thinking this is a color scheme I can stick with for a while. It’s a liveable and approachable color…

Photography by Whitney of Eat Sleep Cuddle. It’s like Whitney read my mind. Replace the May with June, and I”m right there with her. We’ve started major savings mode for our upcoming move and it has made me aware of how…

When Ami from Elizabeth Anne Designs sent over a blue+khaki inspiration board, I couldn’t resist doing a version of this for the blog. Pale blue and khaki is the perfect combination for interiors, fashion, and entertaining. They’re both so soothing…

Photography by Sam Allen Interiors. Hollywood Glamour is not a decor style with which I connect, but this acrylic coffee table with metallic poufs placed perfectly underneath is too cool to pass up. Maybe I need to add a little…
