Glamorous and chic interiors from Nest design

I actually discovered this firm because I was looking for some web design inspiration for an upcoming project, and ran across their site on a web design gallery. The firm is called Nest, and they're located in Dallas, TX.

I hope you like!



I love this conservatory - the mix of elegance brought in by the chairs and dining sets, with the roughness of the stone pavers and logs is a chic contrast.




Love this chair and the wallpaper!
See more at their beautiful site!

Lighting inspiration and a chandelier I love!

All these beautiful photos are from Zia-Priven, a husband-wife duo who teamed up and got into the lighting biz in 1999. Marcia Zia-Priven, co-owner, introduced herself awhile back, and sadly I'm just now sharing them with you guys. Not only are their lighting solutions timeless, you can tell by the lovely gallery of lighting inspiration that she used to be a set designer. What do you think? You can check out more on the Zia Priven site.

Check out the chic and adorable feather finial on the table lamp above.


This driftwood lamp is my fav. table lamp they sell.




I love these two chandeliers - the glass bulbs are all hand-blown. I could see them hanging over tables in an artist's studio or a wood-trimmed home library.

Beautiful rooms with Parisian glamour

Thought I'd share some of this beauty with you this morning - all from Homes and Gardens





maybe not so Parisian, but pretty!




again - not so Parisian - but a pretty reading nook

My new favorite accessories at Viva Terra

For those of you who aren't familiar with Viva Terra, it's a furniture and lifestyle catalog that sells eco goods.

This whole image is gorgeous but the lotus chandelier is exquisite



I love this bedding!




This driftwood planter would be a good DIY project.



Aren't these the cutest robes?!

Kitchen Bliss

Do we all have shiny clean kitchens after clearing it out this weekend? I know you do...right...right? :) Well, if inspiration alluded you, here's a little more coming at you from our beloved Domino.

Who couldn't use wheels on their island!


This kitchen has my mother written all over it - lovely





I'd love to beable to come into this bright and sunny kitchen on weekend mornings






I don't know if I could do this...do you like bright kitchen cabinets?


This is the closest to the kitchens I've had in my tiny city apartments.
