greige and white kitchen..

 

It was nice to take a day to rest this weekend because this week is going to get moving quickly!  We are starting our renovation this week on the kitchen finally and I am excited, I would be more excited if I did not own four million glasses that I have to wrap up!!!  I know that I am obsessed with glassware and apparently bowls but really I did not know I was that bad (note to self: do not buy any more glasses).  Aside from that I am still undecided on a color for the cabinets and the walls, I will try to get some pictures up to get your opinion on them  this week.

So I thought I would start the week off with some pictures of what my kitchen does not look like to give us all some inspiration about the subject.  

Happy Monday!

Garden Entry

 

Oh my, thank goodness it is almost the end of the week.. we can celebrate Thursday right?

I love the amazing windows in this house, it seems they almost touch the floor and the arched gateway is amazing!

Clean lines and linen...

I fell deeply in love with this home.  Absolutely amazing!  The mix of the linen, clean lines and heavy contrast make it so relaxing and beautiful.

restful retreat

 

This looks amazing.  A little space for reading by the windows and a clean color palette to let the imagination run!

Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

greige kitchen

 

I know a beautiful kitchen may not be the first thing you want to see on a Monday morning but I do!  I have been given the green light to start my own kitchen renovation so I have been spending my free time gathering images and ideas to get me going!  I am always a little nervous to start my own projects... 

I love love this one- so pretty and clean.

Spring flowers..

 

I love cut flowers and grouping them in different size vases adds a great layered effect.  Wouldn't this be a great dressing table with all of the natural light and little places to store your goodies!  

Check in with me on instagram for pics of the flea market on Sunday morning if you would like.

Gorgeous transitional mix.. timeless

 

I am loving the mix in this house of rustic and traditional with a bit of vintage put in there!  So fun, it reminds me that we should design with what we love, to make a great mix of styles and to not be married to anything that would make the space anything but timeless. 

There is so much going on this month I cannot wait until I have a moment to share some of my latest projects with you and all of the great things that are coming for this year!

Workspace

 

Clean and simple with a great view...  I love the bookcase- I always need more space for my books!

Kitchen windows..

 

I came across both of these kitchens on Pinterest over the past few days and I love the sets of 3 windows above the sink.  They are so cool with their trim and definition!

simple and clean...

I think this space is fantastic.  The windows and the light are the focal point and it is just so clean and simple.  A great place to get away from it all.

Grey and white roman shades

 

I love the clean lines of the roman shades in both spaces.   Perfect with the thick casing I think!

Light and grey in the Kitchen

 

I fell in love with the light that seems to be pouring into this space.  It makes the cabinetry almost seem grey when I am pretty sure that it is white.  So simple and clean.  

Someday (hopefully soon) I will get to change up the kitchen here!  I found the most amazing tiles for the back splash and I think that they will set the mood for the entire kitchen.. 

Wishing you a wonderful holiday weekend- I hope it is filled with family, friends and sparkles!!

Legends of La Cienega: Celebrate Art Event

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Lee of Lee Stanton Antiques. While we were chatting about antiques and traveling I mentioned that I was disappointed to have missed their recent event, Legends of La Cienega: Celebrate Art while traveling.  Lee was kind enough to give me the opportunity to have a "private tour" of everything that I had missed via their photos of the event.  I am so excited to share some of the fantastic window displays from the event with you!  An amazing amount of detail went into each display - just fantastic!

Next year I will be there to enjoy all of the fun for sure!
