This nursery is one of my favorites. I love the artwork over the crib and have been trying to track down the source and tonight I found it here.

Sadly, I have no credits for these — in the delirium that is motherhood, they have somehow drifted onto my desktop without any notation as to where they come from. Thanks to reader Dean, the last picture is Ben Pentreath’s shop in London!

First I saw the moth photo by Joseph Scheer (Thanks MFAMB!), then this amazing Trove wallpaper (Thanks Ashley and Aron!). I’d love the wallpaper and the print for our bedroom which is a work-in-progress.

Thinking about grey walls. And, after hunting and hunting for tiny bedside tables, I found this $60 charmer from Urban Outfitters:
I had been thinking about this pair, but they went for $450 on ebay. BAH!

We finally bought a new bed and bedding. The three weeks it is going to take to get here is feeling very very very long. I’ll be sure to post photos when we have it all together. via You are My Fave Jr and see the whole house at Design*Sponge.

I keep a file on my computer called “clutter” and I’m finding all sorts of goodies in there today. The first two are from an apartment listing I saw online in 2007. I love the grey in the living room and black in the kitchen (love the light wide wooden floorboards). All that woodwork in the living room conceals storage. These next two are from Remodalista.

Things I like about this room: the grey walls, the white trim, the love seat with topiaries and the warm caramel color leather chairs. WNYC is constantly on in the house: on the days when I don’t have a babysitter it keeps me from getting lonely. Anyway, I listen to the Brian Lerher Show and he often “crowd sources” things — like the identity of Russian mobsters or problems with lead paint or experiences with the public schools in NYC. So, today, let’s crowd source: I can’t find the dining room chairs above anywhere online. I know I’ve seen them but I can’t seem to find them in that warm color. These look comfortable and that is hard to find in a dining room chair! This lovely room is from a Corcoran.com listing.

This Brooklyn brownstone from this month’s Vogue, of all places, is amazing. Thanks for the tip, Stephanie! And, yes, my friends are keeping me caught up on the best of the web this month while I spirit to the end of my thesis. (Thank god for friends!)

I woke up this morning in a great mood, which made me realize I’ve been in a bad mood recently. Anyway, I caught up on a tiny percentile of my blog reading and saw this awesome nook and garland on The Purl Bee. I love those garlands and they look really really easy to make. Also, we went to Ikea over the weekend and bought those chairs in red… pictures to follow eventually.

I hope to have a library like this someday; rumpled and packed with knowledge and evidence of a life well lived. Jacques Derrida’s library photographed by Andrew Bush, found via I’m Revolting. Oh, and I love the little fold down desk.

The internet is my best friend when I’m procrastinating. Look what it just served up? This awesome over-sized chalkboard paint calendar. I’m not crazy about chalkboard paint usually — it always looks so nice in magazine homes and when I see it in friends homes it just looks messy (and no one I know has magazine stylist handwriting either). However, this gives me new inspiration. From Tea for Joy, found via You Are My Fave Jr.

Who doesn’t like a vintage bus roll? I’m still in the process of (cheaply) decorating our white walls and I’ve been thinking of making my very own bus roll using the “roadway” font at dafont.com and photoshop, and then Rasterbating the image. Remember this rasterbation project from our old apartment? PS I love the sea stones under the table in this image! If you don’t want to make your own, but like the idea of a custom bus roll, check out Etsy seller Hirondelle Rustique’s for $99.
