Random thoughts on decor

I’ve been a bit of a slack blogger the past few days (at least it feels like it) but things are just so busy at the moment! It’s one of those times where a lot of things are happening at once on every front : home, work, family, and I admit that finding that perfect balance that includes time for blogging is something I’m still adjusting to. Please bear with me in my absences! But in between all the business there has to be time for contemplating some pretty things (sometimes it’s my daydreaming that keeps me sane, truly!). And here are some of them from today:

I’ve been thinking about putting a coloured (love pink!) fairly small sofa somewhere unexpected – like on a staircase landing under a big window. I can just picture the tops of the trees visible outside..Wouldn’t it look great with some of these?:

I know I’ve been talking a lot about rugs lately, but I keep seeing amazing ones:

Aren’t they incredible? I need more floors.

Also today I’ve fallen in love with the greys, the vein in the marble and the pop of yellow in this kitchen:

And the gold and silver, black and white and fun colour in this room caught my eye today too:

Hope you had a great Tuesday!

Decisions, decisions (and a project)

A little hunt for a faded vintage rug today turned up these beauties – I just love the patterns and the colours. Antique rugs are always a little faded and a little worn, and to me this just adds to their beauty and charm…

I’ve also been on the hunt for some office chairs for an ongoing project, and have been weighing up the relative merits of these (among many others):

We want something classic but in that mid-century sort of style, with some warmth to it that will add a bit of an organic touch to what is otherwise a very glam room. I love both!

Also this morning we took delivery of a new lovely charcoal sofa for the same home, which looks like this on the website:

And is even nicer in person, with a fantastic texture:
