This I Love: Swedish Clock Edition~

I have a bit of an obsession with Swedish clocks. I. heart. them. The curvy silhouette, the neutral colors. Swoon.

I saw this little beauty at Brimfield this summer.


Love the color of this one...it would be perfect in my living room! (Of course it would...heck, they all would!) Found here.

This is Brook Gianetti's entry hall. Love it! Adore that Swedish clock...love the juxtaposition of sizes against the oversize clock face behind it. Sigh.


I found this little lovely online at The Swedish Chair.

Of course, this idea may be a bit more within my budget...a trompe l'oeil clock. Love this!

If you haven't had a chance to enter yesterday's drawing for a $40 gift certificate to Single Stone Studios scroll down to the next post! Drawing open until Friday at 11:59 pm EST.

Have a great Wednesday~

Smitten~

I just love the word Smitten. Isn't it a great word? In honor of Valentine's Day I'm going to list some of the (non-people) things that I'm smitten with...or to put it in grammatically correct terms...with which I am smitten.



Burlap and feed sacks...


as upholstery...




as pillows...





All white stairs....this is on my "to-do" list...




Mercury glass...and birds...(or both in one!)

White~

What is it about January that makes me crave a room done all in white? Someday when I don't have four little bodies eight and under running around my house, I just might be able to get away with it. Until then, I'm going to daydream about the serenity of white on white. Here are a few pieces that are sorely tempting me...

A little side note: Something wierd was going on with my last post that made the formatting of my blog all funny...so I've only put one post on the main page for a while. For those of you who are new to my blog...I have a lot of other fun stuff to share in my previous posts so please look back through my older posts, or click on my side bar topics to find specific things you might be interested in reading. (Just wanted you all to know...)

Have a lovely weekend~
