IN MY DREAMS, THIS IS WHERE I LIVE

Welcome to the house of my dreams. After perusing Apartment Therapy and coming across this Eichler home I had to share it (once I wiped the drool off my face and keyboard of course). It's so gorgeous and is EXACTLY my style. I love the way they've combined a mid century modern flare with a clean, contemporary and bright style. C'est magnifique!! What else can I say except "when can I move in?!"

Go check out the Apartment Therapy editorial here or head over to the homeowner's blog, Redneck Modern for some amazing before and after shots!

Cheers. :)

I COVET THEE

Thanks to my friend Melissa (who also has her own lovely blog here) I am now thoroughly in love with a new online magazine called covet garden. The magazine is created right here in Toronto and each issue is based upon a true to life home and its family or person. The homes that are featured for each issue are so interesting, warm and lovely and I like that they're not propped and overly styled. They actually say it best on the website:

Covet Garden takes a peek into the homes and lives of some of the city’s most interesting people—spaces that have not been styled by interior decorators and that above all else reflect the passions and interests of those who live there.

They also offer up some great tutorials, like the one from this month's issue where they delve into the simplicity of building and caring for a terrarium (something that intrigues me and my black thumb!).

I also adore the design of the magazine itself with its great fonts, great photos and great facts. What more could I ask for?! Check it out for yourself right here.

VOLUME 25

It's Monday. I trust that everyone had a spooky Halloween weekend.

Today in my quest for inspiration I stumbled across a printmaker on Etsy. The shop is called Volume 25 and there are a plethora of adorable prints to choose from. I love the phrases she has used...especially those seen below. I hope that they speak to you as well.

Exciting news...she's having a sale. By 2 prints, get 1 free. Check out her etsy page here for more info.

Have a great week!
