Dishes dishes.....

How fun would it be to collect dishes. Vintage and new. There is something so inviting when looking at a collection of dishes in all shapes and sizes, different colors, old and new. Here are a few that I think are lovely.

Designer's Gilt small plate set from notNeutral (1st image below) is the perfect start to a dish collection. They are quite modern and whimsical.

One of my dear dear friends Naphtali who has a lovely blog Click Clack came over to my abode last night with her hubby. While our husbands were talking and talking we ended up browsing the web and she showed me a few things that she loves right now which are very much blog worthy! One being Glassybabys.....ever heard of them? They are gorgeous! (Naphtali should be there spokesperson.) Here are a few of her favorite things right now.

Houzz....

Have you heard of the new site houzz yet?? Houzz aims to help homeowners find inspiration in home design and architecture and enables them to find, save and share photos and ideas. How fun! Below is a space that I found off of houzz by Levenson McDavid Architects which I just realized (and was reminded) is owned by Jenna Lyons, art director for J. Crew....Duh.
I am off to start my ideabook.

Pre-War Apartment...

Sorry about being slow at getting a post up. My kids and I are moving at the speed of turtles today. I hope you all had a great weekend. I know I did!

Pure Design

Have you checked out Pure Design on HGTV yet? (Thats right, I said HGTV.) I am loving Samantha and her teams style!!!! Check out more here.

Take a look....

When I spotted these images I quickly fell in love! Vivian from ish and chi has done a beautiful job with her kitchen and nursery. I mean come on. That bright circus wallpaper from Catherine Martin's range at Porter's Paints in the nursery is overwhelmingly lovely! I also love the antique loveseat won on Ebay.
And then there is that sleek kitchen with the pop of wallpaper in the corner. Perfect.
Now Vivian just needs to finish the rest of her house so we can drool some more!
