Icy-Cool...

I love the icy-cool tones in this home - who would have thought it's located in Iceland as well.  

Loving the clean lines of the stainless steel combined with elements of industrial reclaimed wood and fixtures!

Bright And Cheerful...

I thought my schedule would slow down after our move - boy was I wrong! 

It has bee awhile since I've had some down-time;  I need to remember it is so important to set a little time aside to have just a little quiet!

I could easily spend an afternoon is this room:

Hooked!!!

I'm hooked... I have just found the most beautiful cafe thanks to Nicety Live Journal!!

Notice how the kitchen resembles one that would be in an actual home!  It's so welcoming and hip!!

I think I would just sit there with my jaw to the floor taking in all the cool elements!

This homey cafe is called The Grounds located in Alexandria, Australia!

The Aussies have vision!!

White and Industrial...

Loving the artistic interpretation of this home designed by Paola Navone.  Her approach is very straightforward, but she still brings in tons of personality and ecclectic style. 

The white is the perfect canvas for the eclectic decor... all the industrial furniture pops!

I can't get over the gorgeous tiles and those amazing strapped beams in the great room! 

... Brilliant!!!

... Hints From The Past

My husband and I had dinner with some new friends the other night.  They invited us to their charming mountain cottage clear up in the mountains of Midway.  

I felt like I stepped into a dream... the food, ambience and company was wonerful.  Everywhere you looked was a unique furniture piece or decor item they bought while on their travels.  I have seen many cabins, but nothing like this!!!  Everything had a story... it was the perfect fall evening.

Wish I could have shown you gorgeous images of their cottage, but just visualize Sundance, Ut and you'll get the idea.

I love when people incorporate items from the past into their homes, it adds that perfect touch of nostalgia and interest!

Have a wonderful Tuesday!!
