Lovely Lights

I thought it would be fun to post some lights that are a bit unusual or used in an unusual way or spot.

These pendants are neat for a hallway. Usually you don't even notice lighting in a hallway, but these are such a neat way to do lighting. Takes an ordinary hall to extraordinary. 

These copper pendants are SO amazing!! 

Aren't these little hanging lights so pretty? Love it.

Fun light for a kids' room.

I love these pendants hanging close to the ceiling. Such a fun look!

These aren't really unusual, but I just LOVE this spot and hope to have a spot like this somewhere in a future house! So cozy.

I think this one is one of my favorites! Isn't it just AWESOME?!

Such a fun light. 

Fun room and way to hang a huge light in the middle of it.

I thought this lamp was fun. I also love the chair!

These lights above the counter tops are so neat! I think they look so great in this fabulous kitchen!!!

And lastly...great light in a great room. Pretty spot.

Happy Weekend.

I'm off to go shop with a few good cousins for a couple days. 

Have a Happy Weekend.

Bathing Beauty

1. Isn't the color of this bath so pretty? 

2. I think this is such a fun girl's bathroom. 

3. Love this with the faucet coming out of the floor. 

4. I LOVE this bathroom. Love the shower curtain hanging from the ceiling. 

5. This reminds me of a bathroom we would have had in Japan. So simple and with the deep bath. 

6. Pretty. 

7. I like this so much. 

8. LOVE.

9. Isn't this so pretty. 

Picture Window

With this warm weather we have been having here in the midwest, I have had my windows open for three days in a row and no heater, and even our fan running last night. I LOVE warm weather! 

So, I was inspired to do a post on pretty windows. 

I LOVE this one...and the chairs in front of it! And the other side of the window too. 

These are technically doors, but there are windows in the doors, so I posted them. I love the window panes above the doors...so pretty. 

Doesn't this look like a spot you would spend all your summer days...and spring, and fall, and maybe winter if I had a little heater!! LOVE!

I am in love with the window across the balcony! Isn't it so so pretty?! 

Every time I went up the stairs, I would think how I was so glad I spent the extra money to put in that window. It is so warm and inviting. 

These windows remind me of Parent Trap...when they are at camp. What a fun office space. 

I have had this picture for a while and every time I look at it, I just LOVE it. I love the window, the cloth panels hanging on the walls, the floor, the chairs...all of it. So pretty. 

I love awnings when they are done right. Don't these add so much charm to this already beautiful house?

Another window/door. I always picture doors like this all over my dream house...should probably price them before I dream too much. I guess that's the difference between a dream and reality. 

Have fun dreaming. 

Spring is Springing

I love how we've had a mild winter and now Spring is actually almost here!!! I love it when we 'spring forward' in the Spring time for our clocks...even though we lose an hour, we gain an hour of day in the evenings...which I LOVE!

So, here's to spring and what I'm looking forward to.

Spring Dresses. Floral and Bright.

Pretty dresses and shoes and fun accessories.

Fun bright colors

Funky pants.

Pretty florals

Pastels.

Tailored shirts and combinations. 

Enjoy!

Birthday Wish

Well, it's been about 6 months since I posted last, but I thought I would post real quick and say that I am still here.

I decided for a back to blogging post, I would post some ideas of fun Birthday ideas. March is always a birthday month in our family. My sister, cousin and myself all share March Birthdays and my brother in law has a March Birthday too...though some of these ideas would not be as enjoyable to him. 

Pretty packages.

 Maybe breakfast in bed.

Or a new pair of shoes.

A new do.

Road trip.

Yummy cake.

A willing dance partner.

A pretty new outfit.

Dessert after a concert.

And to top it off...a pretty manicure.

Have a happy Friday!

Dine In

Well, I thought this blog deserved a post. So here are some pictures of some great eating spaces. 

Isn't this one so pretty? I picture it in the corner of an apartment looking out over Central Park...or someplace fabulous. 

Look at those windows all around!!!

This space is so pretty. I love the big yellow chair at the end.

 Again, a great chair. Cozy space.

 I love this! I've had this picture for a while and love it every time I see it. I picture a family with like 6 kids. Love the big room, the floor color, the big table, everything!

 I love the perfect blue wall. And the sconces. So classy.

Isn't this a fun place. It reminds me of the layout of my Granparents' old Florida condo, but not 80's decor. 

LOVE! Everything. 

 Great whites. 

Pretty and Sleek

 Love the floors. I also like how they pushed the table up against the wall for more space.

 Another one I've had for a little while. I always think this place would look great in the evening with those lights on. 

 Aside from a cat on my table I love this! One reason is because when we lived in Japan, my mom hung all these baskets all over the kitchen that looked like these. 

 Fun spot.

 Again...Lovely windows...and this technically doesn't look like a place to eat, because the table is so small, but I would put a big round table here and eat here. 

Hope you enjoyed.
