A Girl Can Dream

We've got friends that live in the most lovely house in the Poconos in this very development. While their house takes the cake, this one comes awfully close, with a little imagination, one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars, a car, and some tweaks (such as like tearing out the carpet and office lighting right now, and replacing it with some bamboo eco-friendly something-er-other) what an awesome pad this would be.

Deck and balcony and screened in porch?

Carpet, no, fan, no, couch--can I have it?

George Nelson lamp going here...

High gloss paint for the fire place. No TVs. Style up that mantel something crazy.

Yes, please.

Violet attack! But some salvation, maybe, is that a semi-cute fixture over the bed?

Ack! Office ceilings! But some good windows, room for man cave.

Can you leave the bar stools?

Three bedroom, two bath, walk in closet, two fire places, and what looks like a great view. Full listing here. Maybe I should add this to my Xmas list?

A sweet blog that I came across, Habit, had this photo posted and couldn't help but share.

Alvar Aalto Studio Tour

Bowled. Over. Kicking myself for selling my Aalto stool and chairs now... Full tour and lots more incredible photos over at Apartment Therapy.

These perfect flat files.

The chairs, the pendant lamps, all those little boxes, SWOON.

The light.

Sighhh.

Dear Santa,

Just a few things...

I love you, bunny; at OutOfThePinkSky.

I've had this eel skin bag in my favorites FOREVER and am amazed someone hasn't scooped it up yet...crossing my fingers that "Santa" (cough, Andy, cough) will pick it up for me. Available at MentaEra.

Mint Pole Tension Lamp with Box

Mint condition pole tension lamp in store with the original box it was stored in--not even the slightest layers of dust or wear! Casts gorgeous turquoise light... Available in store for $245 or on Etsy. Hoping to get a preview of our Pennsylvania finds up later today too!
