Caitlin Wilson Design

Caitlin Wilson has long been a favorite designer of mine. Just looking at her fantastic Philadelphia penthouse apartment photographed by Courtney Apple, I'm sure you can see why! Known for her fresh use of color and bold patterns, and an incredible textile line that incorporates both, Caitlin successfully mixes high-end with bargain finds for a look that's unexpected and unique. I love every element from her home–where she also runs her business, from the bold colors (the foyer painted Key Largo Green by Benjamin Moore!!) and patterns to the eclectic mix of pieces collected from their life and travels abroad. You can see lots more from Caitlin and learn the sources of things above over at Design*Sponge and her feature in Matchbook Magazine. Definitely don't miss her always-inspiring blog either, as well as this post here with my favorite project of Caitlin's!

Elizabeth Sullivan Design

Just because I'm engaged now doesn't mean I've got nurseries on my mind! But when I first saw this amazing one by New Orleans designer Elizabeth Sullivan, I have to admit my ovaries did hurt a little! It's just exactly the sort of space I would want to have for my own little one some day. Full of fun color, lots of texture and cozy layers. How cool are those aqua stripes on the ceiling?? And the wall of books?! Genius! Elizabeth actually has her own blog too that I love...check it out here!

Aqua Nursery And Live Coral

Yes. YES. This is how you do a nursery people! I stopped dead in my tracks when I spotted this room on Two Tall Blondes. Lucky little Vivi is the daughter of Joni, the talent behind Chocolate Butterbean. Her custom signs and stationary are amazing, so really it's so surprise to me that she churned out such a cool space (and a cool new nursery inspiration blog...). If you're like me, you neeeeed to know what colors we have here. Valspar Aqua Glow on the walls, and the ceiling is a lighter shade of the same color, Valspar Grand Hotel Mackinac Blue. Those colors and the b&w chevron rug really tie the eclectic space together in such a sophisticated way. See and learn more right here!

Pretty in Pink Nursery

Isn't this the coolest nursery you ever did see?! I spotted this sweet space in an amazing beach house on Sketch42. All that pretty pink against the grasscloth is just a dream. Then you have the yum Quadrille fabrics on the windows and fantastic daybed. And the custom-made dresser by Ercole. And the TDF ribbon-covered pillows and chair! And and and...every other little thing you see! Read more about the room and see pics of the rest of the home here!

Wren's Reno and Giveaway Winner!

You may recognize this beautiful nursery from a long time ago, it's one of my all-time favorites. But Holly of Life in the Fun Lane has made some changes since I first shared Wren's room, and I thought they were so cute I had to share. I just loved all the white, with the beautiful dark floors and touches of turquoise, but they've acquired some colorful fun pieces that bring more life into the space. Isn't that antique hand-painted cabinet incredible?! Holly first spotted it for $1100 but a year later scooped it up for only $140! What a steal! Read all about the room here!

And now it's time to announce the winner of the Breakfast at Tiffany's Decoupage Tray from Paris Hotel Boutique! *drumroll please* #183

Julie Susann

Congrats to her! And a huge thank you to Lynn for sponsoring this giveaway! And everyone else, don't worry...this was so fun I can't wait to do my next. (It's already in the works, and of course, it's turquoise!) With that, I hope everyone has a fun-filled weekend!

Ok first off SORRY for so many pictures today! I started this not realizing how many I'd compiled! Next time I promise I won't wait so long to do a readers' room post! Now...how cool are these?! Isn't it amazing how everyone uses turquoise in a different way? How the different shades look great with different colors, create so many different moods? Above is why I love the color. And why I love you guys. You're all so creative! I wish you all lived around Minneapolis so I could come sit in your homes and enjoy the inspiring spaces you've created. Thank you for sending me your photos...each one truly brings me joy! And with that, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Enjoy! :)
