First of all when I close my eyes I am seeing really cool shades of purple. I thought I had got that out of my system when I painted our guest room Peace & Happiness (Benjamin Moore)..do I sound like I have been taking or inhaling some brain altering substances..you know because I am seeing things and using colors called peace & happiness. Anyway today I not only feel passionate about the above colors but I also feel passionate about the following:

*Flowers and the prospects of the upcoming wildflower season, (above wildflower picture taken by me..I think I might blow it up).

*Oh mercy can we please discuss the new Mish jewelry shop in New York?? Look at those walls that were painted by Mark Uriu...what a hugely talented artist. I want those walls in my house. Images via The Style Saloniste.

*How about a new water-based nail polish by Scotch in Morning Glory Fizz (that is exactly the color of morning glory that grew in my back yard). Love the packaging too.

*Ok and sign me up for my bogging friend Jess's new hardware. Seriously can I be first in line? I love the shapes and especially that acrylic brass combo pull. Go here to see more.

*AND finally the above quote by Elisabeth Kubler Ross really is striking a chord with me and is especially meaningful...thanks Mara.


Happy Presidents Day weekend!!!

P.S. - My main objective this weekend is to gather a bowl full of lemons...and then I just know every thing else will fall into place...

Beautiful lilac/purple examples, the entrance with the sofa makes a true statement. Also I really love love the hardware, especially that knob. So chic and modern! I've thought about that quote and quickly realized it very much true... Thanks so much for sharing. Enjoy your long weekend :)
