Dream-boat Decorating

You know how I was banging on about the virtues of white walls and floors last week? Well, check out this house.

P.S The chair from yesterday's Try Something New Tuesday post also lives here.

Is this the definition of decorating perfection, or what?

Thanks again, Maurice and King for great spotting.

Try something new Tuesday: Colourful. Ish. Chairs

Here's an easy-as way to give a beloved bentwood (or any chair, really), some lovin'. All you need is a lick of white paint and an out-there-colour on its heels and you're cooking with gas.

Foolproof:

White On!

One day, I plan on painting every single wall and floor in my sight white. Yep, I'm talking to you Mr Grey feature wall. Your days, my friend, are numbered.

Blog Roll...

Here are a few blogs (and websites) that I have been L to the O, to the V, to the I, to the N, to the G, this week.

Check 'em out, y'all.











Now, for a little bit about them:

1. Old Brand New: Bursting at the seams with beautiful photography and thrifty finds. It's owner, a stylist by the name of Dabito, is a man after my own heart. His apartment is decorated to perfection and he's just launched his first online print shop, Toss & Turn. Run, don't walk.

2. theEdit: This everything-fashion site is the love child of a dear friend of mine who eats style for breakfast. If you love clothes, but loathe shopping centres, I suggest you follow her lead and click here.

3.French By Design:It's French. Need I say more? No seriously, think Scandinavian design, combined with Parisian flea market finds and you get the pretty picture.

4.Dos Family: A Swedish-based lifestyle blog that's packed to the rafters with good wholesome fun for the entire family. A must-see if you have kids.

5. Bright Bazaar: The tales of a too-cute-for-words guy who is head-over-heels in love with colour. Just looking at it makes me happy.


Have you stumbled upon any new discoveries this week that we need to know about?

Tinny Idea I Love # 3

Remember this post? And this post? Well, I think this one may have just topped them in the cuteness department.

Perfect Pairs

I'm not the matchy-match kind of girl. I've always thought clustering two-of-something, like prints, vases, or chairs, looks a tad contrived, but these shots may have changed my way of thinking for good.

Matching frames and cushions? Check.

Twin chairs? Check.

Wooden crate magic

Wooden crates are so on my radar right now. If you're too busy to go collecting them from abandoned factory's on your weekend, you're in luck because Urban Outfitters are currently selling them for $24 a pop.

When you're done hanging them on the walls, try them stacked as bedside tables.

More DIY Action

Okay, this DIY folder is getting out of control. When you're done making stamps, why not start on this headboard. Too easy.

Thank you, Bodie and Fou
