Eye Candy In The Kitchen...

I absolutely love beautiful appliances in the kitchen! 

For some reason the first thing I look at when I'm in a kitchen is the oven range... I know... weird right?

To me it's like a beautiful piece of furniture and can have a huge impact on the overall feel of the room.

My two favorite companies are La Cornue and Lacanche; both make such beautiful oven ranges that compliment any design.

... one can dream!

Hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend!

The Indoor Shutter... Brilliant!

Many of you know Brooke Giannetti with Gianetti home design!  

Both Brooke and her husband Steve are drawing up their beautiful dream home out in the country!

I can't tell you how much fun I have had looking at images and sketches of this soon to be amazing home out in the country... my dream!

My husband and I have our home on the market for the same reasons!  We are planning on moving to a charming little town called Midway; it's about fifteen minutes from Park City, Utah and has so many wonderful outdoor opportunities for our little family.

Brooke has posted several images of brilliant ideas, one of those ideas is using true authentic shutters inside the home:
