Wine bottles...

 

I have a soft spot for the re-purposed  wine jugs.  They are usually such a great natural shape.  I simply adore them with a little grouping of tree branches or full tropical leaves, the perfect accent.

clean slate..

 

Oh my goodness are we really moving on this new year thing.  Without a moments rest we will be having a photo shoot with One Kings Lane today and then in a dead run to complete some projects for February.  I am looking forward to redesigning the shop and the portfolio site for a fresh new face for 2013 too.  I did take a little time late on Saturday night to catch up on some blog reading and I noticed some very inspiring New Year Resolution lists out there, I feel as if I should make a formal one for myself, how about you did you make a list?

What have you been up to in this new year?

 

Vintage reinvented...

 

Umm.. I am in love with this- what a fun update to a beautiful piece.  So modern and vintage at the same time.  So what are you up to this Sunday?  My sister and I will be hitting the flea market and then it is off to the Cleopatra exhibit in LA.  So excited!

check out the details on this bed makeover here.

 

a quick hello...

 

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday!  We are trying to get it back together here, catch up with reality and take some time to enjoy ourselves.  This year has been an amazing ride and I realized this morning how very many places we have been and how much we have accomplished.  I am excited for the New Year and looking forward to sharing it with all of you!  Thank you for everything, for every comment and every email I truly appreciate your support and encouragement here on the blog and in my businesses!

Texture and Lignt..

 

Is this not an amazing space?  I love the texture of the brick with the curved lines over the windows.  Such a wonderful detail.  The fresh clean lines of the furnishings are a great way to offset the rustic ceiling in the space.

megan megas at home..

So I know I have been changing it up a little around here with more and more chatting... but sometimes I think change is a good thing! (I hope you do too).  Anyway, I am going to chat this up because I simply love it.  I love the graphic pillow on the white sofa and I love the split wall with grey and creamy paint.  I love the lack of accessories and things.  This is pretty amazing.  I know it is not my home because my dog would knock that vase off of that little stool in about 5 minutes but I still love it.

 

This picture makes me wish I had not sold off my dining head chairs... humm.  I think I saw some yesterday and now I really want them back!

New Traditional

 

I was browsing through my latest copy of Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles and saw these images..  I love the slight twist on traditional style that is in this space.  I love the settee in the entry it makes me weak in the knees!  Just that little splash of color is so perfect.  There is a fresh mix of old and new that looks like a real home and a real person living in it.
