Fabulous Friday Find!

Ah...here it is, once again that good buddy ol' pal-Friday!  I don't know about you, but I REALLY didn't want to get out of bed this morning, but somehow I managed:)  Yes, it's all about the bed these longer days and nights & I love a layered, fluffy bed that you can hardly find your way out of...lol.  This is the dreamy picture that started the inspiration:

So today, for many reasons, I am really loving this bedding from Eileen Fisher Washed Linen Collection from Garnet Hill.  The colours are to die for and remind me of a retreat somewhere...ahhhh...

These beds make me happy♥

Happy Friday!

Birds Of A Feather

Bird decor isn't anything new, it just happens to be what I like more and more of right now.  With a never ending supply of bird designs out there, you can use it anywhere and on just about anything.

Don't Be Afraid

Oh the dreaded word....wallpaper!  We've all said it and thought the same...too much work and where do I start?!  The truth is, wallpaper has come a long way and with all the latest designs and so much to choose from, there is something out there to fit your life and style.  It can make any room come alive and can also be a great solution to a damaged wall that is beyond repair (as in the case with Toronto stylist Lara McGraw's guest room shown below).  Choose from classic styles that are sure to stick around, or if you feel brave enough go for BOLD!   The trick is to limit yourself to one feature wall and get samples first.  Check out wallpaper images online to get a feel for the scale.  One great website I like to go to is http://www.cole-and-son.com/home.asp  Use their roll calculator and hanging instructions and you're good to go!

Everything's Coming Up Green

So what could be more natural for this rainy summer Thursday than to point out the obvious colour of the day...green. It screams fresh, clean, natural (eco-friendly) and serene.  Almost spa-like.  What more could you ask for?
