My mother (whom I love very much and has great taste) went through a phase of spray painting everything gold. Pinecones, leaves, branches, etc. We used to joke that one day she would spray paint my sister and I so we would match the decor.

Tell them to come to SF next! Lots of love here!

Question: Does anyone know of a local place to take classes in furniture refinishing? I just know there has to be one!

I love the bird vases- but I hate their website. Really annoying that there is no actual web store.

I just bought the parson desk in orange from West Elm- its cool to see that I am not the only one suddenly craving orange furniture!

I hate ceiling fans, and the bf has been petitioning for one- maybe this could be an option we can agree on!

I know there have been quite a few posts on the subject of FLOR carpets, but has anyone ever used them as stair treads? Our aging shi tzu is having a hard time getting up the slippery hardwood stairs, and I am looking for a fairly inexpensive way to make it easier for him. I was thinking of getting some FLOR squares and cutting them in half to make a carpet for each stair. Thoughts?

I am so jealous of your design project! That quilted backsplash is actually quite similar to one I just saw in Sunset.

For some reason I have always had black and white animals (growing up:white cat, black dog, now: a black and white shi tzu), which would explain my fondness for grey... a nice blend of both!

It makes me want to lounge around in an vintage silk robe while drinking endless cup of tea and reading Sartre...
