How Gorgeous

This lady is not only gorgeous on the outside, but on the inside as well. I have been a long time follower of her blog and adore her honesty and wit. Kera lives with her husband and three children in Abu Dhabi, UAE. How fabulous is that? She has recently launched a new shop, Interwoven, that I adore. It showcases textiles that she has found during her travels. Lucky us!

Here are a few things from her shop that I am pretty much smitten with...

Are they not stunning?!?!? Of course I had to build a space around one, an entry way to be exact...

1. Mirror

2. Lamp

3. Boxes

4. Chest

5. Rug

4 Things {good buys}

Nothing like a mid morning post to start my day. It was going to be my first thing to do, but then I got in the answering email mode and well it took me hours. Boo. Another thing I checked off my list was to unsubscribe from a ridiculous amount of email shops, newsletters, etc. Since we are in money saving mode I have made a good habit of deleting them as soon as they appear, but after a while it gets a bit annoying. One shop I did not unsubcribe from was Everlane. I own quite a few of thier tee's and am in love. They have yet to fall apart with many wears and are as soft as can be. They also don't hug which is something I like to avoid. They just released a new sandal that I am trying my hardest not to buy, but I do love the way they look. Not like I need another tote, but this one is on my radar too. I really am in LOVE with this shop. It's casual, classic and hard wearing just like me.

Scott's {part 2 - Atlanta}

The second day of my trip to Atlanta started with a trip Scotts. I have been a few times before, but I must say shopping with Marianne is a new whole level. She was there to shop for a client and shop she did! I am rather excited to see this project she has come together. The pieces she choose were exquisite to say the least. Anyhow, I made sure to make a stop into Maison de France. A favorite of mine and they are actually located in my small town. I hope to visit their shop here and do a full blog post on it soon! It really is quite special.

I also came across these. It's an old process of photography that is not really used much anymore. The images actually come out on metal sheets. Of course I was in awe. My favorite was the stack of books. I could easily see them framed against a piece of linen and floated. They are by Josiah Morgan.

Tiffany is quite beautiful inside and out...

This was a print, but I loved it so much! The colors were so rich.

I may have gotten too giddy over the rosemary topiaries. Of course one had to come home with me! I also bought a bench that needs recovering from here. The two chairs I only wished I needed for a project! I could see them recovered in a fun pattern or a simple linen. These are the times I wish I had a warehouse.

LOVED these lamps. They are from England and were priced a tad too high and by a tad I mean crazy high.

Who is the adorable one in all white chatting with Marianne? It's the one and only Sherry Hart from Design Indulgence. She was fun as can be and enjoyed her company immensely.

So much art to feast my eyes on! If the Mr had a home office I would love these hanging in a grid against a dark walls. They are so him!

I thought this piece would be fabulous for a screened in porch. Again, I need a warehouse...

My weakness for pillows came to an all time high here. I did buy one, I just couldn't pass it by. I was in search for a new lumbar for the sofa anyway. The current fur one just didn't work with summer weather. Of course, I went with a neutral.

Last but not least, who else did we run into? Donna from A Perfect Gray!!!! Spending time with these ladies was truly such a treat. My creativity was stirred and my drive jumped up a few notches. I also learned so much about the design buisness. Can't wait to meet again!
