I've been really struck with navy interiors and furniture lately. It screams luxury in all the right ways. I've also decided that I must own a midnight blue, velvet couch at one point in my life. Gorgeous!


Beautiful Warren Platner table and chairs.

Beautiful art walls! Each combination is unique and personal. I've recently added three Dandy Lion Press bunnylope cards to our art wall in the living room. Now I just need some unique objects and a few more brightly colored prints to finish it off!

I'm currently obsessed with vintage oil portraits. 
 I sense a new collection in the works!

Finding a lot of two and even three tone rooms that I really love. Such a great way to make impact in a space, when done the right way!

I adore this house. It's like one big cabinet of curiosities, everywhere you look a new collection, or vignette. Beautiful!

I've been searching for inspiration for the mudroom in our house, a space that has stumped me up until this point!

 I'm definitely feeling inspired by 70's interiors, especially the bright colors and low "lounging" seating areas. I want the space to feel inviting and to function as an area we can use for less formal entertaining or for relaxing and reading a book. 


Love the low casual seating, with lots of pillows! I found this image, as well as some of the others, in an amazing Flickr gallery, 1970s Interior Design and Residential Architecture.


 I want the space to feel organic with an area for ever-changing inspiration and artwork. What a great way for displaying prints!


A modular wall unit is a must; we need more space for books. Finding a unit similar to this within my budget will be difficult, but I'm up for the challenge!


Love this yellow chair!


Eero Aarnio's living room in Helsinki. Great low seating.




 I've already told Nicholas we are planning a vacation here!



Eventually I'd love to get a free-standing fireplace back there. I can just picture us cuddled up with the girls. 

This project is definitely in the beginning stages, but I'm happy that I'm starting to figure it all out. Inspiration is one of the best parts of decorating!

Found these inspirational handmade homes while doing some searching for a project of my own. Thought I would share them!
