1 Tiles Used in an Interesting Way in a Kitchen Design...




This kitchen design uses several sizes of simple white tile combined together in an interesting way.  I don't love everything about the execution, but I think it's a very interesting idea. It reminds me of graph paper...which you know I love.

From the porfolio of Verne at OWI. Found thanks to Emma's Design Blog.

2 Simple Home Inspiration...



I really like this simple home. Great wood floors, black and white palette with accent colors from art, and not too much stuff.

5 One of the Most Amazing Collections I've Ever Seen...



Lisa Congdon's collection of vintage colorful enamelware makes me simultaneously so freaking happy and extremely jealous.


Also, in my next apartment (I've been doing lots of dreaming and planning lately if you can't tell.) I want to find a way to display some of my favorite things in this way.  Lots displayed, without it looking cluttered. Goes along with the whole minimalism vs maximalism debate too...


From the article Prized Collections from Martha Stewart.

2 Minimalism vs Maximalism from Jonathan Adler

I just had to repost this from Jonathan Adler's Musings...


I often have an internal struggle about this.  Part of me really wants to have a really minimalist, modern space. But I also love really well designed objects, having them surrounding me makes me happy.  I think this explains the balance of the two, or maybe rather how the two can coexist together.  I hope that in my next apartment I will be able to achieve a really good balance of the two...

6 New Toms...


I adore my Toms, but it's time for some new ones.  I want to get black ones, but I'm having a hard time choosing between the Black Classic and the Earthwise Slate Classics.  I was just going to get the normal black ones, but I like that the Earthwise's one's are made from vegan, earth friendly materials and the bit of shine makes them feel a little more special.  However, I'm mostly going to be wearing them with jeans and some variation of a black tee {my self imposed uniform}, or one of my many black cotton dresses, or black skirts.  I'm wondering if the regular black one's would look better and less fussy.

Anyway, this isn't exactly a life or death decision, but I'd love to hear your opinion.  Thanks!

Update!  Thank you for your opinions...I just ordered the classic black ones!
