Shop by Room Scene ~

My mom recently gave me a Wisteria catalog she got in the mail. I am completely obsessed with their furniture. It's modern, it's antique, it's rustic, it's romantic ~ all rolled into one. LOVE.

Check out this section here where you can shop by room! Very cool. Click on your favorite bedroom, living room or dining room and then start shopping for that look.

My personal fav is the Global inspired living room, I NEED that couch in my life.

Our Faves (10.27.10): Sit up or lay down!

Target has this very sleek looking (and functional may I add) chair that unfolds into a twin sleeper. The sleeper lounge chair is dark grey, very urban looking and only $150 - which is cheap for an oversized chair, let alone one that acts as a bed!

Our Faves ~ A Must-Have Sofa

Meet my new favorite couch...its name is Essex and its from West Elm. Essex has GREAT legs!!

And...the Essex bench is worth a shout out too.

Our Faves (8.4.10): Red Reefs

Inspired by the Master Suite Retreat posting on Monday, here is an interesting and modern way to display beachy wall hangings. Coral Reef Wall Art from Overstock for only $169.99.

Our Faves ~ Find Your Place

These Andrea by Sadek Peacock Place Card Holders would be great for dinner parties to label seating, a fun girls night, or can be used to label food for a potluck. They would look fabulous with your finest china, or the dinner plates you use on a daily basis. Mix, match and have fun!

Our Faves ~ Miami Bungalow

Oooohhhhh! Bring some Miami style into your home with this whole section called "Miami Bungalow" at Bliss Living Home. Vibrant, lovely, tropical, upscale vibe! Love!

Our Faves (7.7.10): Get into a Maze

LOVE this iron work maze wall hanging from CB2. I saw it as a stand alone piece, but wowed when I saw it hung in a series! Its perfect for outdoor decorating too!

Our Faves ~ Shopping for a Cause

Good morning! I have to say I love shopping, but I love shopping even better when I know the money is going to a good cause. Check out this gorgeous pillow cover from The Hunger Site store. It is an Indian Appliqué Pillow Cover based on Indian floor paintings called Mandanas. The colorfully patterned appliqué of the Tree of Life comes in Blue or Green. It's a perfect way to bring in a global, earthy feel to a room. Purchasing this pillow will fund 25 cups of food, it doesn't get much better then that!

Don't forget to enter our giveaway here of the perfect summertime accessory ~ a gorgeous ice bucket/wine cooler!

Love this Round Rattan Pouf from Pier 1 Imports. Its on C-L-E-A-R-A-N-C-E, our fave! So grab one before they disappear (poof).

Needing a little more tranquility in life lately, I came across this great buddha sculpture. Doesn't it make you just want to sit and be calm, even if for 2 seconds? :)

Our Faves! (3.10.10) ~ Recycled Paint Swatches!

We love pouring over paint samples. Love the thousands of colors, the rainbow of options, the many possible shades of white that exist (its truly amazing). Its so sad that they have no other purpose, they are so disposible...until now!

Our Faves or DIY...your choice!

So this is a combo post of Our Faves and DIY. We LOVE these Double Recycled Barn Wood Sconces and think this idea could be recreated or reinterpreted as a DIY project. Rescued wood and some candle sconces, voila! But if you love these, which we do, you can get them here.

The Rinjani Basket from Crate and Barrell caught our eye immediately. Its a great storage piece as well as an eye catcher. Guests in your house will ooh and awe over this basket!
