living under a big rock

wow, wow, wow! am i the only one who didn't already know about this great blog called a perfect gray? i always feel like i'm living under a rock when i find these wonderful blogs.

i just found this blog (or she found mine first) and just recieved that shot of new inspiration that i desperately needed. you know it is good when you look through all the old post...get to then end...and want more. now i will go back and read them, since my visual stimulation has been satiated. a perfect gray has a very fine tuned perspective and it took no time for me to drink her cool aide. check it out when you get a moment.

both images from her blog.

top image from peppermint bliss. i love this image for the whimsy of the striped curtain, to the formal-primitive feel of the shutters and then there is the contrast of the mid-century chair with the pop of chartreuse in the pillow.

bottom image from bohemian shoebox. this image evokes the artist in us all. we all need a room like this where we can hang inspiration, pile the books and have the option of a romantic fire when in the mood to create.
