Black and White Interiors

May 18, 2012 // 2 Comments

Today’s color inspiration features black and white interiors. Classy and sophisticated, clean and fresh. I love the high contrast of black and white in a room with simple pops of color in throw pillows, rugs, home decor and even plants! Or sometimes, it is cool to leave the whole room black and white. How awesome are those striped drapes in the bedroom? What about the black and white bathroom? Make a statement and go bold with black and white interiors.

Outdoor Living Spaces

May 17, 2012 // 1 Comment

Lately, I am obsessed with beautiful outdoor living spaces. It’s time to get outdoors and enjoy our patios, porches, decks and backyards. Eating al fresco on warm Summer days is one of my favorite things to do. We grill out as often as we can when the weather gets nice. Do you entertain outdoors? If so, you want to create an inviting atmosphere for your guests. I am always searching for comfortable sectionals, colorful pillows, lanterns and cool outdoor rugs. This outdoor graphic border rug will look great on our screened in porch. Now, if I can just figure out how to get one of these inspirational views, everything would be perfect!

Outdoor Wedding String Lights

May 16, 2012 // 7 Comments

I believe that outdoor wedding string lights are the most romantic detail for an outdoor wedding reception. I just attended a wedding and noticed the sparkle of tiny white lights reflecting in the night. If you going for a dreamy and “fairy tale” look for your wedding reception, be sure to string some on posts and in the trees around the celebration area. They will be sure to enhance your outdoor wedding decorations.
