did you love domino magazine? i did! secret confession - i have every issue saved. i probably could sell my collection on ebay but i love them too much. at least once a year i haul them all out and flip back through for inspiration.
when i found out a domino quick fixes edition was coming back i stalked my local drugstore to get my hands on a copy. success! it feels good to have an old friend back!
i am so happy one of my favorite card companies, rifle paper, now has fabric. i'd love to get my hands on some of these and get a pillow or two! perhaps the prosciutto king of the northwest can pick me up some since he's in the uk? {hint, hint. wink, wink. nudge, nudge.}

last year i bought a small thymes frasier fir candle and loved it so much i knew i'd make it my main candle for this holiday season. it has a great, not overpowering pine tree scent. but i'm loving it so much i know i'll burn through it before christmas is here. any suggestions on another holiday candle? what are your favorites?

i am so, so, so excited to be able to say there is a west elm in seattle! i have been a huge fan for years - i love their modern aesthetic, use of recycled materials and affordable prices. They make good design attainable and I'm so happy they are now in my city. {fyi friends + family, your gifts for the next year...okay beyond a year, will all be from west elm.}
the store is opening today and the west elmers were kind enough to give me a sneak peek of the new store. here are photos of spots in the store that really jumped out at me.
love this sofa.
the kitchen section - lots of color and patterns.
of course i loved the red + orange.
the design center. the west elm staff will help you with your vision, come to your house and work with items you already have. they know your taste and pieces go beyond just theirs!
the bath section. i can see lots of gifts coming from here.
beautiful blankets made from old saris. no two are the same!
some thanksgiving table inspiration.
the mug project shelves. $10 mugs and $5 dollars goes to a different charity for each mug.
and the piece de resistance - the green wall. gorgeous. stop in just to see this!
west elm seattle is located in south lake union, across from whole foods at 2201 westlake avenue.
** here's a little bonus - west elm is having a dining sale and all tables, chairs and dining storage is 15% off! **
i was so happy, thrilled, delighted to see design sponge's feature on my favorite movie, troop beverly hills. check out the living in post and some of the other living ins. there are some fun ones!
a few years back i asked tricked my friends into helping me paint my living room. i've been thinking about repainting it but then i saw this over on peacock feathers and decided to keep it. but i'm itching for another home projects. what are some home projects on your summer 'to-do' list?

i love a good home tour and i love a home tour to one of my favorite actresses even more! keri russell's brooklyn brownstone home is featured in this month's elle decor and online. i think she seems so down-to-earth and her home refelts that too!
the *new* jan/feb issue of lonny magazine is here. i you haven't taken a look at lonny before, it's a great source for home decor and styling inspiration. i look forward to the new issue arriving in my inbox. i love curling up with a cup of tea and skimming through. here are some of my favorites, a collection of nicely styled vignettes.
