Douglah Designs










I'm not sure I'd ever manage to leave this room if it were mine! Douglah Designs out of Lafayette, California created one heck of dream bathroom, didn't they?! Benjamin Moore's Quiet Moments really sets the mood for a serene, spa-like space, and all the gorgeous marble tile doesn't hurt either! Big bathtub, giant shower, plenty of storage, great lighting, even a cozy little window seat...yup, definitely my dream bathroom! To see more great kitchen and baths from Douglah Designs, head on over here!

Have a great weekend everyone!!

Katie Rosenfeld Interior Design


















Boston-based interior designer Katie Rosenfeld is someone I would love to come decorate my own home! Her savvy use of color and brilliant way with pattern and texture make her one of my favorite designers. Better yet though?? She is queen of mixing high and low! Take this fabulous Cape Cod home photographed by Michael J. Lee for example. We're talking Home Depot kitchen and bathrooms, store-bought furniture and accessories mixed with beautiful designer fabrics...all for a look that is totally gorgeous and custom-looking! Katie talks all about the home and her "design on a dime" thoughts (and shares before pics!) on her blog, definitely worth read over here!

As we forge through the coldest winter ever, I can't help but long for an afternoon on this porch! Kelly from the blog Coastal Cottage Dreams lives in a small coastal town in South Carolina...and is probably covered in snow right about now too! (What is up with this weather?!) Is her porch not the cutest, most perfect thing you've ever seen?! A turquoise lover's dream come true! You can read all about it and see more pics right over here! Now please pass the sweet tea!

House of Ruby Interior Design














Drop. Dead. Gorgeous. I instantly fell in love with this room designed by Melodie Rubin of House of Ruby Interior Design when Cristin of Simplified Bee toured the 2013 Peninsula Volunteers Decorator Show House in Woodside, CA. A Traveler’s Retreat Bedroom, photographed here by Kathryn MacDonald was designed as a serene sanctuary for the home’s invited guests. Can you imagine a more tranquil, beautiful place to rest?! I absolutely love every single detail! And I'm also happy to report that some of the items from the room are for sale (see below)! You can see Cristin's post about the space here, and learn more about the room and see before shots here!

Turquoise Houses of WaterColor, Florida




































If there was one place I was dying to see on our recent trip to the 30A area of Florida, it was WaterColor. (How could I resist a community named WaterColor?!) You know how in some neighborhoods you have a favorite house, that one dream home you love to drive by? Yeah...that was like every single home in WaterColor. Seriously amazing homes! And all with tons of Southern/Lowcountry character with their big, inviting front porches! It wasn't just the houses either, there were a lot of really pretty green areas too (almost half of WaterColor's 499 acres is set aside for open space and preservation). And as you can see, the houses all seem to be perfectly nestled into the native landscape! SO beautiful!

If you want to see the inside of some WaterColor homes, check out my favorites here, here, here and here! And in case you missed it, check out my post about Seaside, the community next door to WaterColor and where we stayed during our vacation. Stay tuned for pics of our place too!


Before I sign off, thought I'd give you guys a little update on Wesley! The happy little man turned 5 months old this week...I can hardly believe how big he's getting–17 pounds already!


Those eyes melt my heart!!!

Happy weekend everyone! Try and stay warm out there!
