I have these kilim rugs all over my home...and have mucho grande love for them! I wish that I could incorporate this idea.....but....
the only stairs in my home to do this to would be the ones to the walk up attic, and that would be a shame! hee hee!..... but I still stopped and paused at the color and beauty of this multi faceted runner.
There is a fantastic DIY for this project over at Remodelista if you are interested in creating your own!
Oh, and the gray trim and light fixture aren't too shabby either!

Just like it is always good to have a little black dress on hand {for those events where it is only acceptable to wear black}..it is always a good thing to have a little black paint on hand as well.....you never know when you will need to splash it on and add some good old fashioned drama!
This color by RL is a favorite of mine....just the right amount of gray to make it the perfect black!

Paint color: ebony
Etcetera
I have been trying to come up with a way to get all of my paint colors displayed nicely, so that when clients come to the studio to pick colors I can have something available that is both functional and pleasant to look at. These are the first 10, and there are plenty more to come. I am loving how great it is to see them all lined up....I get excited about painting just looking at them!
My kids are trying to raise money for missions trips, camp, new guitars, and puppies ( oh, help!) ...so they have been painting these for me, and then I will sand and do actual finishes on them......
...Now to think of a way to display them on the wall that is kind of like a really great art installment....any ideas to add to my own?
I hope you all have had a great week, and accomplished much. I had days this week where I felt like I was on top of the world and had everything in order , and then there were a couple days that I felt like throwing in the towel, like the night I ruined dinner....oh wait, make that two nights! .....but you take the good you take the bad and there ya have.....everything ya need to grow and change and be better on the other side! Cooking lessons anyone?
Peace out!

Found Goodness
B and I always hit the thrift shops while C is at his guitar lessons....and this week B spotted this stamp set, (she has an amazing eye....remember the whale?), that I had totally missed! I was looking for something specific and had not noticed the torn and rubber banded box full of frabjousness.....
My friends, I nearly had a coronary...very.nearly.

Could I love this rug, desk, chair, wall shelf combination any more? I think not!
I could literally sop it up with a biscuit....and it motivates me to clean off my desk at the studio....
I seriously should take a picture of my studio desk right now....you guys would have huge, gaping, wide open mouths....it is a despicable mess...
...but on Monday when I show you my new furniture friend that has kept me from cleaning my desk, you will forget all about it..... wink!

You all may be thinking that I am color blind with this "red" color by Ralph Lauren....but I promise you it turns out like this......
....and I wouldn't lie about things such as these....

Introductions
Hey guys! Did ya have an awesome weekend? Did ya enjoy 75 degree weather like we did here?! It was such a beautiful weekend, and it seems so strange that spring has come so early here this year.....with trees already in full bloom and daffodils popping up everywhere!
I want to introduce you all to Winifred! I was itching to use these gorgeous new beaded knobs that I added to my collection , and so when a sweet young couple expecting their first baby dropped this dresser by to get a little love from Knack, I knew exactly what the finishing touches would be! This is one of my all time favorite blues, and creating this piece was a total joy from the very beginning.
Hope you enjoy!
