Novogratz Collection for CB2

1. Whoa Novogratz, your new holiday collection at CB2 is awesome. Acrylic Folding Tray, I love.  The lucite trunk, it makes me swoon. Stack-able lucite wine bottle holder, heck yes!
2. Stepped foot in Target lately?  I love all the new lamps & shades.  It's nice to see new stuff in the store, for a while there I felt like I was shopping in circles.
3. I am loving mid-century lamps right now, especially white mixed with teak.  Etsy has a great selection for these lamps, some pricey, some a little more budget friendly, all of them freaking awesome.

Time Warp- It's Saturday?

Last night was all about Red Baron pizza and my Communications Theory paper.  Thursday night was the same and if I were a betting woman, which I occasionally am, the majority of today will be spent on a paper and laundry.  While I do not have many followers, for the two who actually take a moment in their week to read my blog, stick with me dudes!  It won't be like the forever.

In other news, I did not win in my category in the Apartment Therapy Room for Color contest.  First place had like 300 something votes, I made around 80ish.  The strange thing is, last year I had more votes but I believe this year my living room looks amazing. That's the important point though, that I freaking love that space.  So, maybe next year Apartment Therapy?

For the past two days I've been a little obsessed with lucite.  Just look at this vintage luctire towel bar from Eastonandbelt on Etsy.  $85

Or there is LuxHoldUps on Etsy that will custom make your lucite towel bar. And you get to decide whether you want polished brass of stainless.  They also sell curtain rods & finials.  All of it amazing and something I need to own one day.  $52 and up.

1. Lately, I have seen a lot of mint green dining room chairs out there and I am loving it. One Kings Lane, DWR, Room Service.  Who knew dining at home could be so fabulous?
2. The new fall entertainment collection from Target is freaking cute and fabulous.  I love this bar-cart.  It's brass and wood and oh so affordable.
3. I am crushing hard on Sputnik Chandeliers.  They come in so many colors including brass, chrome & oil rubbed bronze. Ebay has a bazillion of these things available and I hope to make one mine someday.

Time Warp- It's Saturday?

Whew! School and work caught up to me this week.  I have been busy.  Last night I slept about 11 hours and had three vanilla vodka lemonades. So today I felt ready & revitalized and I decided to take on this little shelf Andy's parents had given me.  It started off shiny and navy.  It's very messy sanding all the paint off but it's better than using a chemical stripper. I doubt I will finish this weekend because of the heat, the tediousness and the paper I have to write.  But I figured I would go ahead and start.    Two more weekends and it should be done.

1. Wing back chairs are totally hip. I love the Strandmon Chair from IKEA which now comes in this delicious orange color.
2. Holy  cow?  Apparently I started a trend.  Is mint green the new love in everyone's life?  See more here and here.
3. I am still loving kilim.  But then again, who can't love it?  Check out my curated list on Etsy.
