The graceful beauty and simplicity of an iron four-poster bed always moves me. It boils down to your personal preference of the type of bed you want, but I am a big advocate of the iron four-poster even with the added accoutrement of draped panels. It becomes a nest that just draws you in to get your 8 hours of beauty rest. For added luxury please press your sheets - you will be in heaven!


Happy new week wishes to all!...

I love how luxurious fur feels and the texture it can add to a design scheme. Most of the rooms featured are bedrooms with fur blankets thrown in there, but I am not afraid of a fur throw or pillow in a living room. Especially this time of year when the climate drops and you just want to cozy up! There are so many options out there and more great knock-offs come out all the time.


Happy weekend wishes!...

Halloween is such a fun-filled holiday filled with happy children (on sugar highs!) and a fun adult camaraderie that puts everyone in a celebratory mood. The perfect holiday to start practicing for the real holidays! I often am reminded of the "scariest moment" of my life when I had a ghost experience. I know - I thought anyone who fell for all that jazz was a little off their rocker...until I actually had one myself. I 100% believe in ghosts and I am terrified of them! I shudder recalling the experience....


Boo! Hope everyone had a fabulous Halloween...

Big fan of Moroccan rugs over here! Especially the pile ones. I am attracted to the consistent inconsistencies of the rugs as well as the shag feel. I also am drawn to the geometric patterns the rugs present. Overall I am not a huge fan of your typical shag rug, but give me a Moroccan one any day. My feet just beg to rest on one. Prepare your wallet though because these babies are not cheap!

Happy Halloween weekend to everyone!...
