Flushed and blushing...

Absolutely shaken and weak in the knees...this humble little blog was mentioned on decor8!  Truth be told, Holly {of decor8} was actually admiring all the deliciousness of greige, but elle oh was credited with the introduction. 
{Confession: I am just honored to be uttered in the same sentence as decor8 and greige.}

Dinner bell...

If this were my dining room, I would eat here, work here, and maybe even sleep here.

Moroccan muse...

Lately the Kingdom of Morocco has been inspiring products that make me swoon.  Here are a few products to ponder {and desire}...
Antique Moroccan Trays from John Derian Company.
A lovely peek at an antique tray paired with Moroccan inspired glassware from Tine K Home.
A versatile Moroccan Coffee Table from Cisco Brothers.
More muses from Tine K Home, intricate lanterns paired with amiable lounges.
Another lantern to brighten your space, the Tangier Hanging Lamp by Jayson Home & Garden.
Phillip Jeffries offers this Moroccan Wallpaper {in blue} to wrap your walls in exotic graphics.

Take a number...

Heather Lins Home has a handful of delights adorned with vintage typography.  The Numbered Edition Coasters are an amusing place to rest your drink{s}.
These timeless little delicacies were found on decor8.

Just a glimpse...

Today this {lovely} taste of a delicious space graced greige.
Christina Fluegge {of greige distinction} has graciously shared the genius of photographer Roland Bello.

Silken sunshine...

This second day of April is soggy and brimming with puddles; buckets of rain and drizzles of water have moistened everything. 
Everyday would seem a little brighter with this bed, which probably comes with the wrong side removed; wake up to sunshine everyday {or at least wake up to daffodil Dupioni silk everyday}. 
{Just another lovely find from This is Glamorous with beautiful photography by Mel Yates.}

Another shade of green...

Rubie Green, started by Michelle Adams {of Lonny fame}, is a fabric company {seriously} slanted toward sustainability; in addition to their loyalty to 100% organic cotton and domestic printing with non-toxic ink, Rubie Green is genuinely striving to create responsible products. 
This Indian Lake fabric is a recollection of childhood woven with artistic adult sophistication.  Whimsy anyone?

Blooms...

Sultry succulents.  These {little} beauties are charming.  Even better - they flourish under neglect!  This garden of succulents is from {my favorite enchanting floral shop} Studio Choo.

Jayson's charm...

Elle Decor & Lonny have been seducing me with glossy advertisements from Jayson Home & Garden.  I finally submitted to searching the Jayson Home & Garden website; love at first sight!  Here are a few details I couldn't help but share.
The Vintage French Chair with antique Belgian grain sack upholstery is to die for.
This giclee print of a vintage London Bus Sign is stunning.
Rustic and elegant, the Snow Antler Pillow adds an element of impulse to any space.
Revitalized salvaged warehouse light bulbs serve as Factory Light Sculptures, genius.

Two tea parties later...

Lately tea towels have been prying their way into my blog.  I have never noticed a specific affinity for these lovely linens, and yet, here they are again.  Perhaps not having a dishwasher is spurring me to search for a little glamour in doing the dishes?  The latest tea towel fascinations are from Ferm Living, an engaging Danish delight {thank you, decor8, for the introduction}.
Birdcage Tea Towel, Velo Tea Towel, and Lovebirds Tea Towel are three wonders of organic cotton that would be lovely {functional} kitchen embellishments.
While exploring Ferm Living, I found a beautiful collection of scientific glassware, with all the charm and intrigue of chemistry glass. 
And a Stem Vase {large or small} to add a little whimsy to your space.
Possibly the most alluring category of all, Wallstickers {literally stickers for your walls, windows, or the smooth surface of your choice}.  Enjoy these sticky treats: Periodic System, Light Bulb, World Map, Lovebirds, and Powerbirds.

If your household is graced with tiny humans {children}, you will adore Ferm Living's Kids Collection.

Gustavian gusto...

Once upon a time, a house was built, photographed, and enjoyed in an unlikely kingdom {Provo, Utah}.  Alice Lane was generous enough to share it with the world, and lucky enough to be part of this home.  Is it wrong to use the humble word 'home' to describe this 14,000 square foot manor of perfection?
Every little detail is flawless.  I have never been so in love with a stair railing!  The clock, the intricacy of the ceiling, the chandeliers, and the finishes - all so lovely.  Everything is swoon-worthy, right down to the unspoiled birch logs in the fireplace.
The beautiful photography {by Ashlee Raubach} has captured this home perfectly.  The home was flawlessly designed by Desiree Ashworth.

Oh la la Los Angeles...

Today I stumbled across Cisco Brothers {thank you John Derian Company}.  Cisco Pinedo puts as much effort into being green as he does into furniture and upholstery design.  From material sources {soy based foam and reclaimed and certified wood} to slight details {eco friendly laundry detergent}, Cisco ensures every part of his design and production is sustainable. 
My favorite Cisco piece?  The Reina Chair; feminine but strong, a wonder in eggplant.

Derian delights...

John Derian Company has 'click upon click' of beauty {just imagine the store in person}.  Here is 'just a taste' of their products.  Are you drooling yet?
A delight that warrants a closer glimpse, the Lobster Tray {from the Decoupage Collection}.
Oh, and I adore this Italian Letter Script Wrapping Paper.  When the wrapping is this perfect, does there even need to be a gift inside?
