i really wish my grade school classrooms were set up like this. it would have been perfect: role call, then some singing, then reading, then my first nap, then playground, then lunch, then nap......
not much to say except...texture, texture and even more texture. the ceilings are dreamy and i am going to give this photo to our real estate agent and see if he can put this rough-hewn ceiling at the top of the priority list. the table at the end of the bed sets me right over the edge.
tulum, mexico. i can't get it out of my mind. 3 weeks and counting until i get to wade in the warm, turquoise ocean again.
i find it rare to stumble upon great shops like kabinett & kammer, where they have already filtered their finds...but still leave some treasure hunting for the hunters like me.
i have some really special girls in my life and i would love to give each of them this tea dress, along with a plane ticket somewhere warm in the Mediterranean....on the beach, where i would be to greet you with a hug. all of you too!!
gather at the river...or lake or even right in this workshop. this handmade piece of art really causes me to ponder moments or relaxation and adventure. the cane seat backs make rowing seem like something easy and blissful. this is an update for sure.
of this old wood box is something i can't do. this little box was filled with herbs from the herb farm near seattle in 1990. it has moved from seattle, to NYC to SF and still brings that wink of joy that comes with feeling anchored and home.
not sure what draws me in the most on this one: the fireplace, the stack of books on the bench or the cozy-leather-broken in chair. i really am going to repaint my already warm white walls to another, brighter shade of white and this white is the look i'm going for. 
another holiday break find. this great plant (i can't recall its name) is a show stopper, but the real object of my desire was its primitive assembly. it is an old piece of fence that has been sun drenched for years on SoCal, with the plant attached with wire and fishing string and then the hook it is hanging from is the same simple wire that has seen the equal amount of weather as the board.
here is another one of those photo's that reminds us of how important it is to invite nature inside our homes. i love it that this corner of the room is ALL window, and the most charming windows to boot. i would seriously sacrifice a little in the winter months to have a space like this (a little chill easily solved by a snuggie...hee).
oh, and hats always makes a good impression. not to be so cliche as all of these objects have had their moments of fame, but i stay loyal to each of them.
whenever i am in so cal visiting my sister and family, we hit up the local antique/junk store. this is always top of the agenda as we are both seekers and diggers. i think we spent almost 2 hours this time, but boy did that 2 hours fly by.
