Egg Shells & Succulents

Who's egg-cited about Easter?  What a wonderful time of year!  How cute is this little egg shell garden by Roy Joy?!  I'd say skip the dye and try this for Easter!

Below The Kitchen Floor

How cool is this?  It's a wine cellar built into your kitchen floor.  I'm definitely keeping this in mind if I decide to build a home in the future!

Stephen Wiltshire: Artist

If you have the time, take a few minutes and watch this fascinating short docu about an autistic artist, Stephen Wiltshire, who has this amazing skill of drawing detailed cityscapes.

This particular video shows him drawing New York City's skyline (18ft worth) - by memory, based on a quick trip he took around the city in a helicopter.  This guy is amazing!

Welcome Spring!

Today is the first day of spring!  As an inspiration for this season, this beautiful dress is from the Elie Saab Spring/Summer 2011 collection.  The floral print and detail are so feminine.  I cannot wait to start pulling out spring prints, especially for Easter Sunday!

A White House

This house is for sale in Stockholm!  I'm so glad visuals are needed to sell homes online so I can dream.

Be Green

Happy St Patty's Day!!! 
I'm at a house/block party today in Dallas!  We have a giant parade in town that brings out thousands and then a nearby neighborhood pretty much becomes the social scene the rest of the day.  Hope you have a blast being green today!!

#57

A cute new online shop is open - The Shop At Number 57.  Their creative website is filled with prints, cushions, and other fun home goods.  The owners/couples' motto is something along the lines of, if they don't love it for their home, they won't sell it.  See if your tastes line up!

In The Bedroom

If you've read my past posts, you know I'm really into modern Swedish design... mostly because it looks so clean and cool.  White walls, pops of just the right amount of color, and simple, yet beautiful architectural accents (especially in the framing of the windows and doors).  Here are a few examples of that with Swedish bedrooms in all their charm.
