Lovely kitchen in the Hamptons

I saw this bright and crisp kitchen when reading "Style at Home" online and was smitten.  I love the oversized lanterns and the colorful piece of art.  (wish I knew the artist!)  You can tell by the major curb appeal of this home that it will be amazing inside.  

Canadian-born designer Amanda Nisbet relied on bold colours when designing this beach house in the Hamptons.  See more of the interiors here.

Etsy Friday Favorite...custom wedding chair signs

 

We couldn't have been happier with the custom wedding chair signs from "Our Hobby to Your Home".  I found them on Etsy and picked the font, color and ribbon for our signs.  They have many options to choose from and much more than just chair signs to pick from.  It provided a special touch to the seating and gave the bride and groom a feeling of pride.

Green with envy

I just love the crisp, clean feeling each of these rooms has.  Muse interiors did a beautiful job adding just the right touch of green in these spaces.  It would feel like summer year round living here!

Happy Anniversary!

After several months of planning Allison and Blake's wedding, I am celebrating 26 years of marriage to my high school sweetheart!  Time flies.

Etsy Friday Favorite

Instead of throwing rice, blowing bubbles, etc... Allison and Blake decided to leave the wedding reception under a bridge of sparklers!  This looked great and as a parting gift we designed special matches for the guests to take home.  We found these on Etsy and just loved them!

A PERFECT MATCH

You can personalize your matchbox by selecting your pattern, color and text.  They arrived very quickly and added a custom touch for our guests to take home.  Check out Lil Missi collection on Etsy.  She is out of Redondo Beach, California and has precious things in her shop.

Love...Mia Linnman

I came across this Swedish artist when reading "a perfect gray" blog.  Mia Linnman loves to paint large, colorful abstract horse images on large canvases.  One of these would certainly fit into my home!

Mia Linnman has an eye for the aesthetic––the pages or her blog Solid Frog are filled with interior design and fashion spreads that will not fail to fill any reader's head with inspiration for his or her own home or wardrobe.  I'm so happy to have found her blog and art.
