My current little obsession...

... tumbleweed. Yes, I have some

on the way.

Sarah Jessica Parker's Hampton Home...

My grandparents had a wrap-around

porch, so a porch like this always

makes me happy.

Not very Carry Bradshaw, but

stylish just the same.
SJP's boudoir. Feminine, pretty,
and light-filled.

Work Hard, Be Nice to People...

... and give thanks.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone!

Added to my "Must Have" list...

... numbered postal bins.

Isn't simplicity beautiful?

I'm a New Victorian Ruralist...

photograph by James Merrell

According to the December/January

House Beautiful, I am a New Victorian Ruralist!

The found object, atmospheric, layered.

Edison bulbs and smokiness.

Global country, pure, artisanal, handmade.

Miles of linen and tumbleweed.

I think this amazing photo

by James Merrell speaks to

many of those adjectives.

Dwell Bedding...

Both designs currently available at

Finderskeepers. Just let us know

if you'd like to shop the

entire collection.

Gentlemanly Bathroom...

I rarely get excited about bathrooms like I do

with other spaces — but this masterpiece

calls for a little of my attention. Bathrooms

are usually either outdated and neglected

or updated and sterile bores. This clean,

eclectic space beckons with vintage oil paintings,

gorgeous fixtures, industrial storage, and

graphic textiles. Perfect.

See what a sense of play and a neglect

for "what everyone else is doing"

can create. Personality always wins.

Foundry Objects...

Dan Davis repurposed several foundry objects

(like those sold at Finderskeepers) to create a

genius stairway. The hollow-centered pieces

make great mirror frames.

For Pam Foster...

Interiors from the movie The Holiday (2006) starring

Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, and Jack Black.

I like a lot of things about this eclectic room, but I

especially like that drum table.
