How can I not post the pets and the people who live in this awesome half circle home

Jeff and Jennifer Isbell with June and Johnny.



A little Bohemian



A peek into the home of artist Anne Becker from elle Global inspirations abound. An eclectic mix of elements meet with comfortable style.

..........and pets always make a house a home!

Building blocks



I generally dislike the geometric cube style architecture that is on the rise and seen on just about every modern home blog.

This home is truly at one with the landscape.

Constructed of timber and left exposed on the interior. It exudes warmth and coziness!

eeny meeny miny moe!

Bringing the outdoors in...just about literally!

Modern Rustic


Ok, the table and benches ROCK!!

This minimalist approach is surprisingly warm and inviting. I like!

A Sink was a Sink.....but not anymore!


I like this as much for the photography as for the sink itself. From Kohler

Stacy Garcia Lamps






A sampling of Stacy Garcia's lamps found at lampsplus. Prices range from 119.00 to 199.00. An affordable element to rejuvenate a corner in your home.

more from Brian Yates and Sheila Coombes



So this dynamic duo also carries masterfully orchestrated wallcoverings.

Not so into the minty green wallpaper with darker green flowers...just really liking the lizard ALOT.

The contrasting purple wallpaper, on the other hand, is a surefire winner in my book.

Sensuous Textiles by Brian Yates



So rich and inspiring...my heart is breaking right this second....breaking with luuuuuuuve.........for the clever talent and progressive thinking of human beings, in this case, Brian Yates (but really, behind every good man is an even greater woman...in this case Sheila Coombes). I think it is she that tends to the design aspects.

Magenta......spice for the home

Loving the right side of this living space! The back wall is AMAZING!

If I could have two living rooms...this might be that second one. I am crazy over color, especially magenta and hot pinks, but I think I would have gone white with the roman shades....or green. Am I just getting old and boring?

The epitomy of the perfect magenta!


I posted this for the wall....looks to be layers of paint creating such depth, not to mention the photographers clever lighting! Ha.

Mod Lighting


Like a flower! This would work in a number of settings. From beach house to mid-century. CLICK ON PHOTO TO SEE IT IN FULL. designed by Angus Hutcheson

Straight lines and dark chocolate!


and there is this one. lifeshopcollection

More rattan


.......you prefer more retro lines, here you go! lifeshopcollection

Nice Lines


What pleasing lines! And if you are a fan of rattan.....which I am and always will be...this is perfect, more refined than your average rattan sofa. Replace neutral pillows with boldly colors ones (lots of them)...and BAM! lifeshopcollection

This room invites you inside


This is the sort of room that begs you kick your shoes off and sit awhile. It bespeaks the style and interests of the owner. Photographs/artwork hold up every corner of the room.....the piles of books and mags are both visually appealing and reassert that this is a place to 'hang'. The configuration of the furniture is all about conversation. Yup, without invitation, I would have no problem making myself comfortable.....likely to the chagrin of the owner, producer-director Brett Ratner Oh yeah...the live plants lend color and fresh appeal. pointclickhome

Click on photo for full view....it really is quite lovely.

......and the living is easy


I adore this handling of color! Wall paint is by Behr. You can find more information at dominomag

This is Heaven!




Maybe I am just way too sleep deprived (probably YOU too)...or maybe dreaming of warmer days, but these are pure AWESOMENESS! Unfortunately for me, my dogs would take them over! And we would all exclaim, "look how cute they are all curled up like little foxes'....and that would be that!

I found this treasure on nothing-elegant blog which you really must check out. She is a clever writer and finds all sorts of nifty sites and such.

I adore the menagerie of pictures that fill the entire wall space....and the sofa is killer! Why the beige wall? You see so little of it, would be nice if they painted it orange or purple or some other rich and contrasting color. Ha, this is just me.

update: found AGAIN on pointclickhome It belongs to Lindsey Buckingham, former member of Fleetwood Mac. I love his solo music, his voice!!
