Ticking Slipcovers

I have always been a fan of blue and white stripped ticking. These dining room chairs look so nice in this fabric but it must have been an expensive project unless the owner sewed them herself. They would look better around a larger table or as stand alone chairs somewhere else. via 
Can you believe it's October already? I have always said that the summer drags by and after Labor Day the days fly by and all of a sudden it's Christmas. See what I mean? It's true, so start getting ready! Smile.

Quirky Buildings in Paris

Photo by Dawne Polis
Where there's a will, there's a way. Somehow these two buildings got squeezed in and they are are all the more charming because they are not ordinary.

Gorgeous House and Setting

Simply wonderful house in the perfect setting. The addition on the right would be perfect for me. Have a great weekend. via

Screen Door Love

The time has come to take down the screen door and put up the storm door in my area but it's nearly summer in Australia. I love the way the this one matches the panels in the solid door. So nice. I don't think I have ever seen mint green as a front door paint color but it looks very nice here. via
Have a great weekend.

Laundry Room, Dog Bath, Dog Bed

This laundry room has it all. A place to bathe the dog or rinse off your muddy boots, a place for the dog to nap, and stacking full-size washer and dryer. So nice. via

Great Living Room, Nice Floors

I like this cozy setting around the fireplace flanked by French doors. The bookcase is perfect and I love these floors! via

Ivy and Brick in Charleston SC

I love this photo, especially the brick entrance walls topped with pineapple finials. The ironwork is lovely too as is the ivy on the townhouse. via

Lovely Hallway

I like it all. The painted floor, the high ceiling, the shiplap wall, the glazed door and the room beside. via
