Things I Love This Week!

Freshome Blog

Apparently, I feel the need to justify my wanting to paint my bedroom black. Above is another example of how lovely the color works in a room...yes, that's my opinion.

Everyone needs a HOT PINK bookcase!

Liz Williams Interiors

Another chaise lounge for my library in my fav color too!

Last but not least I *heart* the Austin Fire Department & EMT. They came to our rescue today out on the Greenbelt. My friend decided ligaments in her ankle were overrated and she took a tumble. These awesome people came down the trail to get her out...notice there are like 17 of them. My friend is in the canoe looking thing (if I showed you a better pic her face would be in pic & she'd kill me) ontop of a gigantic wheel to get her out. Thank you AFD & EMT!!!

OH MY

I thought you should know I follow a ton of design blogs to the point I can barely keep up and tend to scroll through them rather fast...I'm all about the visual. Today, Trendir posted a fantastic blog about a Turkish rug company, Miinu and I had to share. Miinu takes 50 year old carpet and turns it into a modern masterpiece of colorful fun. See for yourself.

Seriously, the multi-color can go in ANY room...how fun!!!

Words need not describe this chosen rug;-)

Another design blog I follow did a post on 'Mom Cave' rooms being the latest craze. Well, I'm no mom, and I can pretty much make my entire house about me, but guess what caught my eye. Naturally, I had to share. Blue is still making me happy. Another confession, I love colorful post-it notes...
