Friday Find - July 29th

We're off to a friends cottage this weekend for a much anticipated couples getaway (aka par-tay).

Got me thinking about how serene and calming cottages can be (unless of course you're at the cottage I'm going to this weekend LOL).

Like this one:

Or this one:


Have a great weekend all (be it serene and calming or loud and fun!!

(just have to add that I posted this from my iPhone on thee way to the cottage - I love technology)

Friday Find–July 22

Today, in the heat wave we’re experiencing in Ottawa, this is where I want to be…. floating a chair with my favourite beverage at the ready!

What about you?  Hope you are staying cool this weekend.

Friday Find – July 15

urban outfitters fainting sofa aubergine

In my Dabble browsing this week, I came across this fainting sofa from Urban Outfitters.  I love it in the aubergine velvet.  Just saying “aubergine” and “fainting sofa” in the same sentence is giving me a serious case of the vapours. 

“Why, I do declare, I believe I will have to retire to the veranda. 

Oh dahling, would you fetch me a pitcher of mint julep.”

OK, I’m done channelling my inner Scarlett :).  Have a wonderful summer weekend all!  And while you are enjoying your drink of choice on your veranda, make sure to check out the latest issue of Dabble Magazine!

Friday Find – July 8

Flipping through the June 2011 issue of Elle Decor, I came across this table in an article about Paul Loebach, a furniture designer.

Read their post on the Watson Table here.

Paul was named one New York Times “Nifty 50” in January of 2010.  I like the unique design, a modern piece with a nod to the spiral turned legs of earlier furniture styles.  A conversation piece in anyone’s home, I’m sure!
