Finding inspiration at the LA mart... January



I truly enjoy going to market, no matter where you go it is very inspirational.  There are so many talented creative minds that work on the showrooms it is really a treat to see most of the time.  This past weekend we visited the LA Mart for the show and found some great new pieces and some really great displays.  


Two's and Tozai never disappoint!  This book display was amazing!






The Walls in this room were painted gold and were super cool.




Love the paper runner- great idea!


I think I need this even if I have no place for it, so sculptural and cool!



Our best seller the star pendant with mirror.. love!




This is my favorite chandelier and I have been desperately trying to find a special place for something like this.. I know that one day it will happen.

I am off to Las Vegas for the furniture show there today, wish me luck!

The Shop by H. Bleu



Yesterday I had a chance to go up to Venice (I have lived in California all my life and never been to Venice, Ca.  I have been to Venice, Italy though - weird huh) to meet with Susan from H. Bleu.  Susan is creating a custom wall treatment or art piece for me in a project that I am working on, I am so excited!  Her shop was so fun and creative, she is super talented and has a love for all things vintage.   We had a chance to chat, which is my favorite thing to do with creative people, I could go on for hours.  Susan was also nice enough to direct me to a cute neighborhood where I could get some lunch and shop.... more on that coming next week.









This is the style of the piece she is making for me - I cannot wait to see mine in the space!  One of my favorite things about design is being able to work with people who can make what is in my head part of real life.  There are so many talented artists and designers out there and I so enjoy a collaboration like this.




Visit H. Bleu here to see more about Susan and The Shop!

California style {Ryan Murphy at home in Hollywood}


Ryan Murphy and David Miller's California home is the perfect mix of old California and new.  I love the clean lines of the kitchen mixed with the rustic table and it's wood and leather chairs. Each space seems to pull it off perfectly with a simple palette and clean white walls.

Nathan Turner @ Pottery Barn {a book signing}


If there is one thing I love it is a good design book and meeting the designer/author is always a great way to spend an evening!  Nathan Turner is signing copies of his first book Nathan Turner's American Style at Pottery Barn in Beverly Hills on Thursday evening.  

Also in the coming weeks look for an interview here on the blog with Nathan about the book and a giveaway for greige readers.

greige on the outside..


 


The exterior of this home in Los Angeles is so gorgeous!  I love the grey in the siding and the shutters just a subtle color change and it contrasts so nicely with the landscape.  Really the green in the landscape makes the colors work so well.  Looking forward to another busy and successful week here!

Rose Bowl Flea Market...



We took a quick morning trip to the flea market on Sunday.  Always a good time!  I was excited to see some new faces and of course some good friends.  I fell in love with these vintage postal bags- so amazing!  He had a few left you can catch him here if you are interested... (U.S. Vintage Leather 562 400 6680)

  I love love these bags too with the linen outfit- yes please!  Brothers of Industry always a favorite!







Always a favorite- the vintage lines.. I resisted this time but only because I have so many that we are making up into pillows for everyone.

The Rusty Bucket was a new find for me- their display was really amazing and I picked up some great vintage frames for a little personal project  that I am working on.  I believe that their shop is located in Camarillo, Ca. 





I stopped by A Life of Vintage's booth early in the morning.. She had some really great pieces, love the dress forms and she had this huge antler that I loved.  It was nice to chat with her too as I found out that she reads the blog. (Fun!)  You can fine Sandee at Heather Fields Home and Garden in Westlake Village, Ca.  
 






There were 3 of these beauties... I waited to see the vendor but she was out so I had to move on- aren't they so lovely!

How about you did you hit the flea market this past weekend?  Did you get anything good?  I would love to know.

Also, don't miss your chance to enter our giveaway!
