Face It

How fun are these kids clothing hangers?! They come in lots of whimsical colors and each are made out of birch ply and laser cut. They are hand sanded and painted. They are such a sweet idea! I saw them initially on Pinterest and then found the shop on the British craft site Folksy. The shop is named Red Hand Gang...you can take a peek right here.

Vintage Vibe

I'm spending a lot of time sorting through items in my bedroom...deciding what will stay and what I should box up. I love a warm, vintage look but want the room to feel fresh. I'm also narrowing down paint colors. I always use Benjamin Moore paint that I purchase at Sherwin Williams. I love this color called Gray Tint....

Love this color which I found on Pinterest. Photo: http://dalyessentials.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html

I completely love mercury glass so I just bought this bedside lamp at Home Goods. Paired it with this matte black vintage phone from Pottery Barn. Warm wood adds a perfect tone with the antiqued silver look....

Mercury glass votives, antique inspired chairs and mantle style shelf all from Pottery Barn.

Bench I just purchased. Perfect size for stacking books....

A Quiet Corner

We have an amazing consignment store in the village called Tesori. Beautiful home furnishings that are eclectic and charming. Today I stopped in and found a perfect reading chair and bench for my daughters bedroom. My little one needs more quiet time to read in the evenings. A place to disconnect from the hectic schedule of the day and simply enjoy the world of a good book. I set up a cozy corner for her and it could not be more ideal. The pink striped skirted chair is so pretty and the distressed bench is a perfect compliment to it... mixing textures and colors for a beautiful, comfortable balance.

A true treasure....my favorite store, Tesori.

The coziest of corners to enjoy a book.
