For the modern baby

Though it's not my particular style I think this baby bed rocks!

You can find it at Ubabub.

A simply pleasant dressing room

A few finds

I must admit, I first saw these photos over at A Life's Design and drooled, so I looked them up myself. This blog has always been a place to store beautiful and elegant things that I stumble onto so I had to document them!

Great farmhouse sink and gorgeous window

Glass cabinets are gorgeous...if you have pretty things to display of course!

Oh the garden parties you could have here...

Herb garden

I love this little garden nook. A little walkway to stroll along in the evenings, perhaps? Yes, please.

Outside living

Though made of wood, this chair beckons for a good curl-up-and-relax

Library

Open shelving

So classy

Exactly what I am looking to re-create at my new house

The Big Apple

Visited NYC a couple weekends ago. Stayed in Park Place at a wonderful hotel and enjoyed being a lazy tourist (i.e. no plans, no schedule).

Saw this gem of a B'way play:

and visited Apple within the Big Apple:

A very fun excursion!

I went for a walk the other day. Here are some of the things I saw, including amazing homes. The detail is incredible. I will have to take more pictures of the homes nearby. They are pant-worthy.


Multi-paned windows, a small round window...

This little alcove is precious. And the stone-work...

A friend.

The park across from my street.

A cute address post covered in flowers.

All of these homes are from either the eighteenth or nineteenth centuries and capture my heart.

Can you believe how well-kept these homes are? It makes me so happy to see old architecture kept in all its glory. Makes me want to knock on the door and hug the owners!

Just because I love before and afters...

This was a patch of landscape I worked on a couple months ago at my church just because it was driving me crazy! So I put on some gardening gloves and went at it.

Before:

and After:

So this lovely home is a real-life home for sale in New Jersey. Not a magazine house or show home it is simply someone's home that they are trying to sell. I love their style and the design of the home. I would buy it!

Gawked at here.

Pretty Pretty

Have a great weekend!

I'm off to have a dinner date with my Daddy--but I'll leave you with this lovely home. White galore!!

(I'd be) Singing In The Rain

If I was taking holiday at this adorable cottage on the shore

But as for now, where I am, it is just raining.

Wouldn't you love to sit down to breakfast in this peaceful kitchen? It would be heaven.
