Al fresco...♥

Oh man!! I keep dreaming about a perfect backyard... mine is still a mess, haven't gotten around to working on a budget for it and when I look at inspiration images like these, I die.

The {highly anticipated} arrival of spring has this effect on all of us, doesnt it? suddently its all about out-door spaces, "al fresco" dining and entertaining... {major sigh!!...}

Alright, so in my humble opinion, the are two reasons why these scenarios work...

mixin & matchin ;)
Just look at all of these flea market finds below....

and, Perfect shade... and nice green view!

Do you have a gorgeous outdoor space that will make me green with envy??? hehe ;)

feel the spring??.... time for Easy Cottage!

"all the way" Cottage style is not my favorite, but I have found this place and totally fallen in love... I think this is perfection. Cottage style made easy. So friendly and with some very elegant features. I love.

I particularly adore the combination of old and new, I strongly believe in fusion, And {yes, yes....} I know I sound like a broken record but to yours truly, the black {dark} accents in a white room full of light are genius!!!

On Easy Elegance...

The bathroom... {fabulous bathroom!!!} here, is the source of inspiration for my own little bathroom as I have just painted my walls with a very similar shade of gray and also replaced my sink... I will show pictures soon.

But anyway, here is this beautiful home full of dramatic accents I found on Martha Stewart.com and I absolutely adore... It belongs to Suzanna Bierwirth, a freelance creative director and cofounder of the design company Binth.

{allow me to insist on the absolute gorgeousness of the black accent wall!!!!!! I die....}

Katrine's Easter Wonderland

I have had these images for months, waiting for Easter to approach so I could show them all to you. I have never seen a more beautiful Easter arrangement... or a cooler approach. I heart the shapes, the branches, the table setting, the incorporation of Mother Nature into the scene....

Let's see if you love it as much as I do...

"The easter doesn’t have to be yellow. Why not experiment with a much fresher green theme? The colour heralding the arrival of spring. We have set a table with pure Danish design and the daffodils have been replaced by snowdrops, crocuses, white parrot tulips and cherry branches". Katrine Martensen-Larsen

The dining table of my dreams {wink}

The most perfect dining table I have ever seen...

Another version, just as good...

As for chairs...
something soft and chic like this would be the perfect match:

What do you guys think, do you like the tables at all???
Am I totally crazy to be this crazy about them?

Lovely Brooklyn apartment...

Joelle Hoverson, an owner of the SoHo knitting supply store {Purl} has the most amazing taste... her Brooklyn apartment is seriously swoonworthy and her style so warm you just want to move in there with her.

Joelle, a longtime knitter and a former senior style editor at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, opened Purl in 2002. “I was constantly looking for a really good knitting store that was like the Murray’s Cheese Shop of yarn,” she said, until realizing that she could open such a place herself. Business took off, and she soon partnered with her sister Jennifer; they now also sell online, at purlsoho.com

Here's a look at how this crafts lady transformed her home into works of art.
