Was one of our resolutions to make our home a place we want to relax, stay in on a Friday night, hang out? The Los Angeles Times and Daily Candy think Designer Michaela Scherrer's Mi Pillows might be a good thing with which to start. The pillows are inspired by nature and made of everything from scraps of vintage French linen to Italian leather, and feature laser cut designs. The soft colors ...
A romantic ambiance can be a great aphrodisiac and it can be created with limited effort and expense with very worthwhile results. This type of environment can be created within a bedroom to create a very sexy romantic feel.
Because we absorb our surroundings through our five senses keep each of these senses in mind as you recreate your bedroom for a more romantic feel. The key is to create a feel within the room that is soft, inviting and a ‘place’ that you want to be.

Jamie Hayon has redesigned the Camper shoe shops in Barcelona and London. Now I love these designs but as much as I love Camper shoes they look sort of odd sitting in this sort of decor. Maybe I am wrong but I think the person who chose Jamie for this job liked hiss work so much they forgot about how the shoes would look in shops designed by him.
I will put my hands up and admit I ...

Usually I'm not a fan of kitschy, gimmicky home decor items -- mostly because they're expensive, and they'll undoubtedly go out of style in about 15 minutes.
However, there are always exceptions.
Take this "Personal Moon," for instance. It's nothing fancy -- just a giant light box in the shape of a moon -- but, especially if you live someplace with an open floor-plan that's otherwise uncluttered, the Personal Moon could be a very ...
You can do this with your bedroom if you go to Design Inspiration. Full instructions on how this bedroom was put together are available there.
I have been in this bedroom and it is STUNNING. It belongs to friends of mine who I have mentioned before here. Helen and Chips own The Stencil Library and Design Inspiration is their blog where they show you how to acheive all the looks they have created in their gorgeous ...
I remember being in New York at a furniture fair a couple of years ago and going to the Blick stand. They were innovators of decals. I knew at the time that they would be copied but this thing just seems to have no bounds.
Kalideco is a French company and they are now producing flocked decals, take a look at those elephants.
I found this yesterday and can't for the life of me remember where it is. It's a cafe beautifully decorated with flowers and branches and the light over the table projects different images onto the table top.
Anyway I have shown it because I think it's delightful.
I had a little trip over to Ugly Home, the website and unfortunately not the Paris store, and found these gorgeous items featuring fashion. The wallpaper (top image) is from a vast range that I didn't realise they did. If you can't find a wallpaper there you never will. Don't take my word for it go and have a look.
I featured my friends at The Stencil Library the other day and was so pleased you liked what you saw.
When I was visiting Helen last week Chips, her clever artist husband, came into the house with this new Print Room Stencil. What I saw was a board with the stencil applied but no images in the vignettes. Chips explained that you could put your own pictures inside each one.
Yesterday I visited Helen's ...
I am an avid collector of images. I see stuff and tuck it away into a folder with a daft title and at a later date I will go back and find it and be just as amazed as the first time I saw it. That I suppose means I really do like it. Here's some images I saved earlier from a folder I titled BIG, BOLD and Beautiful.
Like Them?
These are not people's houses these are part of the Woodson & Rummerfield's Showroom. These sets must have cost a fortune. The website is as good. Go and see some stunning interiors they have designed and they even have an online store.
Their showroom is in LA so it's a bit far for me to go.
You most probably will have heard of The Stencil Library, well I am proud to say they are friends of mine and the other day I visited them to buy some paints for Ghost Furniture. Helen made me a giant cappuccino in their amazing Georgian Farmhouse. Now this is no ordinary Georgian Farmhouse it is a show house for their stenciling skills. Each month they take parties around the house and show them what can be done ...
I mentioned last week that Pink had asked me to put together a Pink Room and a Vintage Nursery. Well I did the Pink Room the other day and she loved it so now let's see what she thinks of this.
This is one of the most difficult rooms I have had to put together but once I accepted that eBay was about the only place I was going to find kid's vintage pieces it was OK. ...
