As head into the second half of the year, geometric patterns continue to be hot. And of course, I personally love the look. So, I flipped when I spotted the beautiful porcelain hardware line created by ceramics artist, Julie Moon exclusively for Anthropologie. Reminiscent of gems and candy sticks, Moon’s Lulu Knobs and Wall Hooks are fresh, fun and playful.

Don’t you love?!

Happy Friday!

Friday Find :: Coastal Art by Swiden

July 12, 2013 · Comments { 0 }

With summer in full gear, the Coast Collection by Australian-based artist, Charlotte Swiden grabbed my attention. The designs and creative techniques are influenced by Charlotte’s Swedish heritage, love of nature and childhood spent on the southern shores of Sweden (and yes, she was born with the name Swiden). Colorful, playful and reminiscent of summer days by the ocean, these linen wall hangings come in two sizes.

Like most Swedes she likes order, structure, white space and more white space.

Swiden also offers the collection as note-cards. I think these would be darling framed and hung as a series.

Happy Friday!

They are just plain fun. Lawn games are a great way to entertain family and friends over the holiday weekend while encouraging a little exercise and friendly competition. bocce ball, croquet, paddle-ball, horseshoes are some favorite garden games in my family.

Friday Find :: Malibu Loft

March 8, 2013 · Comments { 1 }

Chic, sleek and modern. These are words that come to mind when describing the Malibu Loft furniture collection. Launched in 2011 by Somerset Bay, Malibu Loft offers a youthful vibe to contemporary furnishings through hand-painted finishes and fabulous design details not normally seen with this aesthetic. Although the collection is offered in six beautiful colors ( fresh, dusk, java, ebony, ivory, stone and cayenne), I’ve selected my faves in fresh (crisp, clean white).
