Fun mirrors!

A variation on the starburst theme which seems everywhere these days, and has thus lost a bit of it’s chic feeling…I really like the use of wood! I’d actually really like to see a mix of different woods and grains, kinda like highlights for home accessories!

man, i love anna’s work at black & spiro. this sofa looked AWFUL before she got her hands on it, then reupholstered it and painted the wood a glossy white. i would love to have this piece in my living room!!! i’d really like to learn how to reupholster furniture…i feel like that would be a useful skill to have. it can’t be that hard, right? hmmm, must look into this…
you may have noticed that i’ve never had a picture of a chandelier on my blog before, and that’s because i generally find them to be quite ugly/boring. but uh, i’m in love with this one.
and a pretty lamp

Just time for one new post tonight, since I have to wake up crazy early tomorrow to hear Jeff Fettig, Whirlpool’s Chairman and CEO, speak over breakfast. YAY, but man 7:30 is early! Plus I have a longer run tomorrow that I’ll have to do after work, so I need to make sure I’m rested. Today ended up being a nice day, I had a nice run after work, and an even better dinner out with everyone at Roadhouse…am feeling quite stuffed, and ready to sleep! But first here are several mugs I found on Etsy that I really liked. I’m strongly considering adopting my grandparents’ habit of buying dishes in pairs of two, instead of 8 or 10, and then having a fun collection for meals and such. Plus it works well with my ever changing moods and tastes! Anyway here they are–scroll over the pictures to see whose store it is.
Hmmmm didn’t realize I had so many, and also an important note is that I’m becoming a big fan of black tea, hence the fascination with mugs. Hope you enjoyed!

Lovely antique mirrors…really enjoying the double feature, but a little TOO symmetrical for my tastes, at least in such a small area…
Then some lovely bookshelves. Where is the apartment I’m going to plant a few roots in? I’m just aching to build a wall of books, and art, and pictures and you know…
Man, look at these rocks! Such pretty colors
And a cute spin on those ugly paper doiles that I never understood the purpose of. Here are some plastic resusable ones, and they’re a bit thicker/permanent looking so they can be used in a couple different ways.

Am loving this coffee table, and this cute bowl! I’m on the lookout for a fun bowl or platter to put the mail on…
