Dreamy simplicity
The simplicity of this space is perfection. Can you imagine - no television - no phone - just sleep and a warm fire?
I hope you have a restful and wonderful Sunday!

My Winter Table
This year we have had the chance to have a few gatherings around our table and I cannot wait to have more in the coming years. I fell for a picture that I found of a table done in white and linen. This is my loose imitation with my favorite thick linen napkins and some vintage pieces that we picked up this year. I hope you are looking forward to the new year as much as I am!
Setting the Christmas table...
Are you hosting a Christmas dinner? I am having family over for Christmas eve.. I have been thinking of a different way to set the table.. candles and white and linen is what I am thinking.
Similar to these pictures...
Wishing you a wonderful Christmas eve eve as we call it here!

guest quarters
We have guests this weekend, and while I wish the guest room looked like this it might be TOO comfortable - if you know what I mean. This is so subtle and inviting with the soft layers of grey, linen and white.
Are you having guests for the holidays? How do you welcome your guests?
I always try to get the house to a normal level of cleanliness and fluff the pillows. I typically spray the sheets with lavender water and put fresh fluffy towels in the guest bath.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

Linen in the bedroom
This looks like the perfect retreat! I love the floor, the bedding and the drapery... so perfectly wonderful!
A few hours spent here reading during the day would be well worth the hours lost.
Don't miss our giveaway!

Current obsession: Mark Alexander Fabrics for Romo
When I was up at the PDC a few weeks ago I found some Mark Alexander fabrics and I am completely in love with them. They are soft, made in a wonderful group of colors with fresh and beautiful patterns.
I cannot wait to show you what I plan to make with them!! So fun!

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

Living room makeover..
Having found my new wing chairs last week I decided that my Living room needed a little make over. I have a pretty neutral base so it is easy to change out some fabrics and pillows and make a pretty significant change in the space. I decided that I would like to slipcover my new chairs in a white cotton duck so that I can wash them easily and have a much needed white accent in my space. I have fallen in love with Barbara Barry's Ceylon Key fabric and basically used that as my starting point adding texture and print from there. I wanted to get the full effect of the space so I added a few of my smaller accents from the space to see how I would like everything together. I am excited to make these few simple changes and update our house a little. We still need to have the wood flooring put in and make some major improvements but this will get me started and make me feel better while I wait it out!
What do you think?
Don't forget to stop by and see us on One Kings Lane tonight!
Time to relax
Saturdays are the perfect day to take a few extra minutes in bed and enjoy the morning light.
It is easier that way to ease into what you are doing for the day don't you think?
Also, I wanted to say thank you to everyone for all of your sweet comments on Thursday! Things are a bit better now... sometimes though!!!
Have a great weekend.

Linen Cabinet
This is such a great piece. I love the contrast!
I have been loading up my linen closet with the best that I can afford lately. After being gone I could not wait to come home and climb into my bed with my linen sheets. It is such a treat to have them that I have invested in an additional set... so much nicer than the cotton...
How about you do you love linens?
Lately I find my self falling for them more and more - vintage and organic being my favorites! We found some great unused vintage linen sheets while in France and they are fantastic once they are clean and fresh.

Drapery on the bed...
What do you think? Do you like the idea of drapery on the bed?
If you have it, do you use it? Here in California I am not sure it would be anything more than decoration.
I love the look though!!

Picnic mood..
It is warm in California today and I am so in the mood for a good
picnic.
Do you picnic?
My most memorable was a late evening on the
Seine watching the Eiffel Tower light up...
What's yours?

Reclaimed wood table..
I wish it was this beautiful and simple... but now I have a naked grey wall in my dining room and I am still debating on what I will do...
What do you think?
By the way Holy Moly it is November!!
