Today I am Loving...

I have had a long week of work (and a pretty dull, non-inspiring type of project) - so for today's blogpost I needed some beautiful inspiration shots.  I hope you love these as much as I do...

Whistle While You Work:  These two office pictures make me smile.

If winter comes, can spring be far behind?: An outdoor room styled by Lucinda Moodie.  With the cold weather upon us, we need these warm reminders.

What do you look at first?  The black enameled, art deco door, the silver-leafed ceiling,
the dining room furniture, the beautiful round table and light blue and white chairs...the chandelier?  By architect Peter Pennoyer

The Hidden Door:  So beautiful and practical - why waste precious wall space!  Add a bookcase to your door.  Peter Pennoyer

Geometric Love at First Sight: This is definitely a "where do you look first" image.  Notice the circles, ovals and rectangles in repetition.  This room really has a rhythm going. I couldn't live with this on a daily basis - but I love that ceiling and the mirror treatments on the walls.  From a past Pasadena Designer Showhouse by Linda Allen Designs

Total Serenity: You could easily wind down from a hectic day in this space.  Just add some chamomile tea. From Kips Bay Showhouse 2011, Elizabeth Pyne, McMillen Plus

Big Blue:  Who wouldn't have fun sitting at this desk.  UK Designer Abigail Ahearn's

turquoise desk makes a big splash in this room.  Her office is a constant reminder

to have fun and be creative.  Via The Selby

More Mora for Me: Look at the fabulous patina on this Swedish Mora clock. And the finish on the chair is fabulous too.  I'll be doing a tutorial soon on how to achieve this look. 

Love Mora Clocks. The antique turquoise finish on the clock is very unusual - just love it.  Wallpaper and fabric from Thibault
