inspired by simple interior decor
I am often drawn to places, like cafe’s, boutique stores, art studios and unique shops, which are creatively decorated and if I were given the chance to create a welcoming cafe, I would draw my inspiration from:

I have to admit, after the emotional roller coaster of a week I had last week, I decided it was time to shift gears and stare at some amazing “adult” home decorating ideas. My favorites this week come from here, here and here
There is nothing more inspiring then a window facing either east or west in any home, because the light affects throughout the room give it not only a warm glow but a romantic feel as well. Check out some of my favorites
Exactly! Like I said before I wish I could have the luxury to change my interior decor every time I saw something I liked, but since that is impossible or unrealistic, I can only post my favorites on my blog to pay homage to the creative individuals with the perfect vision to make it all come together. What I love is….
One of my favorite rooms in a house is the dining room. I enjoy, while entertaining, to sit around the table and exchange conversation, share a few laughters and ponder over childhood memories. This to me is the perfect time with family and friends. So, while I help a friend find the perfect theme for her dining room renovation, I came across some interesting decor which I would love to incorporate into my own home.
Since I spend all my spare time writing, whether it be my blog or the finishing touches of my book, I am always looking for ways to get inspired. Normally or until now, my desk is in front of a window overlooking the ocean, but lately I have considered creating an inspirational wall and having my desk face that wall. Here is one I think would be interesting to duplicate with minor changes. The art pieces or photographs would be of Paris from the 19th century, I would incorporate my favorite quotes in frames along the edge of the desk and the chair would be reclining comfy.
I cannot get enough of art prints to hang throughout my studio apartment. But I must admit, I am very choosy when it comes to picking the right pieces to, mostly, inspire me. So, I was happy to have stumbled upon some prints here, which I want to add to my collection.
Wow, that was a tough first week, getting back into the swing of things after the holiday celebrations. But for some strange reason once I packed my christmas tree away on Sunday, my brain kicked into gear and I began outlining what I foresee the new year would be like in my life or household. One thingI realized is thatI haven’t talked much about interior decor. I guess since I am always wanting to change my decor around, I decided it was best to stop looking for a while. But the urge to redecorate is back and I can’t help but look for options once again. Here are some ideas I found here, which I couldn’t help but fall in love with. I know there is a bit of a safari feel to my latest decor love, but I think it’s the exotic feel to the rooms that captured my interest the most.
Every year I dream of hosting a holiday party and after contemplating the venue, I end up not following through. This year however, I have decided to host a small get together with friends and with it I asked each person to find a unique cocktail we can all try and bring it to the party. While I wait for their suggestions to create my drink menu, I have found some of my favorites so far. Click on the photo for the recipes
Decorating a small apartment or studio can sometimes be challenging since space is an issue. For example, placing a tree in a multi purpose or multi functional room requires moving some furniture around to accommodate the decor, subsequently making the limited space feel even more smaller. While I searched for ideas to decorate a small space, I came across some wonderful christmas tree suggestions here which will not require any furniture moving. Check out the pics below:
