Looking through the catalog that came in the mail two days ago, I decided take pictures of things I like, then post them, so as not to forget! Above, I loved the idea of having a hotel-like row of lounge chairs for afternoon parties where you can relax after dessert and enjoy the sun... or shade. Also, I love the lantern closest to the photographer. It is a simple old-time charm just with the candle and metal strap to hold the glass. Just don't trip!
The colors used in this room-stage are lovely. PB took a bold move with this catalog. I've never seen (at least not in a very long time) them use animal print and more ethnic things as they did in this catalog. They pull it off with their sophisticated charm, very nicely. The windows are also an eye-catcher.
The entry/console table that is pictured above, is similar to a table that we have. One, very low shelf, and long. Same build. Same sort of table. But I have never successfully decorated it before. But now that I have the ideas from the picture above, I will succeed.
In our Alaska home, we have no proper entry way. No mud-room. In a place you
need a mud room. For the next home we buy, I will pay closer attention to conveniences such as this. Enough room for a bench and proper coat closet would be a luxury. Someday...
Though this above pictured office is hectic, it is well organized: organized chaos. I really like the collections of jars holding miscellaneous things on the white shelves. I have a lot of ribbons and buttons that could use such a fashionable home. I also really like the red magnetized chalk board and white magnetized dry-erase calendar. All surrounding a beautifully crafted Mac computer. The industrial feel of the hanging pendulum light is a nice touch with the bare wood walls.
Keeping track of art and craft supplies is sometimes a very difficult task! But if you can find a desk like the one in the above picture, you'd be in good shape. The shallow, but deep-enough shelves would let you store in an organized manner while not losing track of anything because the shelves were too deep. I love how they use the space. You don't need so many wall-units if you have shelves built into a desk top. Lovely and ingenious.
These bathroom colors are very similar to the ones I have in our bathroom. Green whites and dark browns. But I love how there are splashes of yellow and light browns. Adds in a bit more texture with the light brown whicker baskets and the green branches in the glass on the counter. I love how it is staged.
I have been looking for 'fashionable' Rs since Mark and I have been married. I'm sure it is no surprise to anyone that having a big letter from your last name's first initial is pretty in-style right now. I love the crafted, painted R that has a vintage flair surrounded by other scripts and photographs in film-appearance. Classy.
I have collected about 43 sets of keys since living here: mailboxes, church keys, closet keys, lock keys, door keys, garage keys, etc. I don't want to always cary them around with me, so if they had a nice looking home where I could place the daily mail for Mark to see when he came home, I would be a happy house-wife.
The above picture is really just for the lime green color. I have been contemplating which colors to paint our front room (that also has the blue one the kitchen wall). I have decided that the blue that is in the house is so rich and warm, it could actually be paired with quite a few colors, bold, meek, or sleek. Any, really! This was one that caught my eye. If not for a main color, perhaps for the fireplace cut-out where we could hang some photography art. It would make for a nice off-set, and frame whatever I hang pretty nicely.

You know, if you want green in your bathroom, you could get one of those bamboo shoots that grow in a glass vase w/ or w/out rocks. They do well in bathrooms, even with not much sunlight. My mom has one in hers with NO sunlight! Love these picturs and what a great way to journal your ideas!
I like your style Jayci! I've had kids for too long that I've forgotten how to decorate. So feel free to help me anytime! I love PB, but I feel like I don't have the time to just do things for the house. I too need to find a color for our living room. Come see, maybe you'll help me pick a color! :D
