Things I covet...

I definitely need [Translation: have got to have] a few things and it cannot wait. What are the things you covet?

1) A fabulous accent mirror

2) Cute chandelier just like this one

A buffet / Bar like this one...
[this is the most urgent ;) ]



Or this one

I recently stayed at at the Hilton in Mexico City and they had one VERY similar in my room....

Of course I was totally devastated I couldnt fit it in my luggage :(

Happy Monday!!! After a much too nice Mother's day weekend with the family, I am feeling happy and ready for this week's challenges!

And what can be better to start the week than some pretty practical examples on how to make your kitchen better by displaying some interesting, everyday items such books, bottles of wine, old mirrors and plants? give your kitchen personality, and turn it into a great living space! after all, most of us spend more time in the kitchen than anywhere else in the house...

I am a mirror lover, that's no secret, and the things you can do with them are just countless!!! here are some fabulous ideas from http://www.realsimple.com/ and it really IS real simple!! On the first one, really I dont want to go on and on about how much I LOVE a brown wall, as I have already posted photos of my own brown walls, but look at the way these mirrors add so much personality and charisma to the room, it looks classy, yet romantic, my kindda place...

On the second pic, a full lenght mirror was used on a dining table and I have to say, this has got to be the MOST creative center piece I have seen, its just a full lenght mirror kind of like the one you hang behind your closet door! and look at the outcome!! priceless.

Feels like home...

I love to be able to find certain elements that make my rooms feel cozy, warm... just like home.

These images from www.goodhousekeeping.com just do it for me, the old rusty mirror, the baskets under the bed for extra storage (always appreciated!) and the adorable round tray, oh so useful!
