fashion vs style?

"What is the difference between mere fashion and true style?"

cover me pretty



Oh hiiiii :-)
Yesterday, one of my fave design blogs (cocozy.com) had an entry showing 2 images of  a kitchen/breakfast nook covered in my favorite collection of wall-coverings: Phillip Jeffries.


  • This Grass-cloth wall covering adds drama without drowning the rooms. It has textures and adds dimension and dynamic to the kitchen.



                                                                 
  • I love how the wrapped the grass-cloth into the window sills and bulkheads.
For a few years now, P. J wall coverings has this collection with moroccan-style prints and others.

They will most definitely add glamour and focus to a room:







                                                                                     






Because the rolls run in the the 200 dollar mark,  I would suggest using this as:
  • An Accent wall
  • In a powder room
  • Hallways/foyers
  • Headboard wall
And finally, these are only available through trades, like me :-)

It's wine o'clock



Red, white  or rosé....  from Chile, South Africa or Napa Valley, chances are we all like at least one kind.
It may make you mouthy, red cheeked or simply more relaxed, God bless wine :-)

Remember: Choosing ONE cool and bold wine rack adds instant punch or personality to a kitchen. It's one of the most fun and versatile kitchen accents out there :-)

Below are some cute and unique wine racks I came across on the net.
