The smart round marble top coffee table by cb2 is a simple and elegant table that could be used in so many settings. If you are a stylish 20-something just starting your furniture collection in your new apartment, or a hip older generation ready to flip your old table for something new, well this has your name written all over it. Carrara style marble has that ink blot sublinimal effect on me.
How sweet it is! I have weddings on the mind, you see, my little sister is getting married at the end of the summer and this is what I think about. While looking for different ideas I came upon this happy little theme: Carnival!!! For anyone having a reception in a big white tent, consider the vibrant hues and cheerful accents that go along with this spectacular country fair/ carnival/ circus theme.
When plan A (a glass and steel contemporary structure) and plan B (a repurposed church house with 50′ ceilings) were not feasable on this windy hilltop in Cape Breton, Eliot and Alexandra Angle decided upon a simply marvellous barn-style cottage that is as fresh as the air around it. Take a look inside…..
Looking for something sweet and rich to sink your teeth into? Oh boy will these do the trick! These Carmel Apple Cheesecake Bars with Streusel Topping are highly recommended from Mel’s Kitchen Cafe.
You have no idea just how excited I was when I found these appliances! They are stainless steel and look pretty much the same as all the other appliances out there you say? Well, yes, but LOOK at the overall dimensions! 24″…..for a fridge? Pricing is not to shabby either. For the average suburban homeowner this may not be a big deal, but for a cramped condo city dweller, the smaller appliances mean so much more. What does it mean? Well, 24″ or so of increased cabinet space goes a long way way when you don’t have place to store dishtowels, pots, or dry pantry items.
What a seriously sweet mural! The Carousel of Dreams mural by Tres Tintas as a wonderfully large sized wall mural with a dreamy theme.
I believe an introduction to Murray Feiss is in order. Murray Feiss is a wonderfully crafted lighting company that carries an impressive line of fixtures that range from: just-found-in-the-attic-of-the-18th-century-home, to a lovely sleek contemporary style. The pendant on the far left is from the Arabesque family, the central pendant is from the Kinsey line, and the far right is from the Ethan collection.
The Collection Line by Maax is incredibly inspirational, and the Urban Shower is one of their shining examples. It is a wonderful option for a shower when you don’t want to break up a large bathroom with walls, but want to have a contained space for luxurious showering. See the large overhead component? That is the Rainmax square showerhead, it’s massive when you compare it to regular 8″ “rain shower heads” from competitors, because the rainmax is like standing in a clearing in the Amazon during rainy season. It’s pretty much that amazing.
Do you like the look and creative edge that can only come from a hand-painted mural but you don’t consider yourself an artist? No worries! Find an image you love and bring it into a copy store where they can make it into a transparency for you, get your hands on an overhead projector and away you go!
