Design Details

Tonight, while making dinner, I stood over the kitchen sink after a deep breath, and realized that it was only Tuesday! It feels like it should be Thursday already. Yesterday, I got some bad news about something I was expecting to go one way, and it went the other - talk about a bad way to start a Monday. I've been bummed out since, even though I keep reminding myself something better must be in store then.I came across this beautiful home that got me all perked up. We could all use a burst of color in these cold months of winter, no? This gorgeous Georgian home is bursting with personality, and all the right details.

The art work in this guest room is captivating, talk about a conversation piece. I need to know where one can find it, even if the cost is an arm and a leg.

I love the use of the white and yellow tiles to add interest to the bathroom. It is so simple, yet makes an unforgettable statement.

What stands out to you? How is your week going? I hope you have a great Wednesday!

Annaleena Design

I am absolutely giddy with excitement, not only because these are so cool, but the simple fact that people are so incredibly creative, that the most mundane things, can be transformed into jaw dropping objects! For all my industrial design lovers, you will absolutely adore these steel metal candle holders by Annaleena, of Annaleena's Hem blog. If you are familiar with Annaleena's Hem it really is not much of a surprise that she can come up with something so beautiful, however, I can't help but, be overwhelmed by the genius of it all. 

Gorgeous, aren't they? I like that it can work in many design styles. They are definitely modern, and industrial, but they can be added to a more traditional space to add interest and a wow factor.

Sexy Faux Fur

Seriously, even 6 months ago if someone told me I'll be all gaga for interiors layered with luxurious faux fur, I would have looked at you sideways. However, here we are, me gaga for beautiful furry layers. When done right, it is luxurious and sexy. This to me is fur done extremely well!

Stolen Moments & Lusting

Hello dear readers! I guess yours truly simply needed a break, and I'm not sure that I'm back to a hundred percent, but I'm slowly lulling myself back. I'm sure you've noticed that it has been dark city in 30Inspired land. I think I've been running on reserves and the reserves ran out, no more inspiration, creative juices needed to reboot. I kept starting posts, but nothing good was coming, and I hate to post just for the sake of it. I finally decided that maybe just going with the flow isn't a bad thing. I felt anxious, guilty, you know all that ugly ish, but decided maybe, I should just allow myself to have this dormant time. I hope you understand, and hang in there with me. Do you find  yourself needing to take a break even from your most beloved things? It might be that 10 extra minutes in the bathroom, like me hiding in the bathroom with my iPad, don't tell me that's just me, please; a quick afternoon nap, a lone long walk, whatever you choose to do, a moment where we just unplug from it all is truly necessary. It must have worked, because I can feel my creative juices flowing again.

And, this, my friends is what I have been seriously lusting after. This gorgeous boutique hotel, Le Reve Hotel is in Mexico, and how I would love to spend an afternoon in one of those plunge pools sipping on a fruity drink.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am wishing each and everyone of you a very Happy Thanksgiving! I hope it will be a day of reflecting on all that is good, spending time with family and enjoying wonderful food. 

My favorite thing about thanksgiving, well other than spending time with family...cranberry! I know the picture isn't cranberry, but it is the closest I couldn't find, that I liked. Happy Thanksgiving y'all!

Bakker Made With Love & Happy Monday!

Nothing like a jolt of color, and prints to get a week started! Happy Monday everyone! I hope this is a great week for you, and in contributing to that goal, I've decided to share this beautiful room with you today.

Those lanterns, to me is what is so so special about this room. Imagine your teenage self in a bed like this. How about that bubblegum pink birdcage, my 31 year old self would love that.

Have a great day y'all! :)
