We have a clue about Furniture

For this week’s installment of  CMYLK , we’ve done something a little different. Instead of artwork and rooms, we’ve created  Colourlovers  palettes for four rugs from Spartanburg, South Carolina-based floor covering company  Milliken . These abstract designs are works of art in and of themselves.

I’m OBSESSED with these trays by  Clara von Zweigbergk for HAY . You can consider these #1 on my personal wishlist for this holiday season. I want the really big ones! The modular series of trays, called Kaleido, are all made of geometric shapes that nicely nest inside one another so you can build your own configuration.

I’m not throwing a party anytime soon, but browsing through the Hostess with the Mostess blog makes me want to throw one immediately! But of course, it would have to have all of the colorful and creative ideas and details that go into the parties seen on their website.

Have you ever thrown a party like this? By “this” I mean with one of these fabulous tables that have a cute banner, drinks with labels and a cute straw arranged on a matching tray, desserts or appetizers lined up also with cute labels attached to a toothpick. You can’t forget the flowers and a coordinating tablecloth, either!

The first party shown above is an 80s-themed Bridal Shower and the second is a graduation and birthday party with a navy and yellow chevron theme. If you click through to each party, you will see how all of the details come together from appetizers to drinks to desserts.

If you’ve thrown a party like this before, what are your tips for staying organized and bringing everything together – aside from hiring a party planner!?

It’s refreshing to see wall decor that is different than your typical paint or wallpaper, such as this Brick Back by BuzziSwitch. Although, I’m not quite sure why it’s called Brick Back, as it’s made from felt – BuzziFelt to be exact!

The Brick Back insulates sounds, so it can be used on the entire wall surface, or just in sections, as a bulletin board perse. The felt enables push-pins and/or thumbtacks to be used to hang up any necessary papers, flyers, decorations, etc.

The best part is the all of the colors available – I wouldn’t mind a bright pink Brick Back in my home office!!

What do you think of this fun wall covering?

Well known for their soft-sided vertical garden wall pockets, Woolly Pocket is back with their latest design, Living Wall Planter . The indoor/outdoor planter is made of a sturdy hard shell with its own self-watering tank with holes to distribute water to the roots when necessary. The modular design is easy to hang on most any surface and it comes with the hardware to do so. Hang one or multiples to create an entire living wall. The shell is vented to keep the excess moisture from oversaturating your plants

Engineering Temporality is the Design Academy Eindhoven graduate project of  Tuomas Markunpoika Tolvanen  that pays tribute to our temporal nature as human beings. Inspired by his grandmother’s slow decline with Alzheimer’s, Heidegger set out to create objects that could mimic the fragility of our lives. The pieces are made from tubular steel formed into rings and then the “vanishing” is done by burning the pieces with fire

It’s days like these that I really wish I was a 2.5 millionaire. Because then I could buy myself the most ridiculously beautifully modern white home shown above.

The house, the kitchen, the pool, the surroundings – everything about this modern home is gorgeous. But what I really love is that ceiling! I would love to see it in person – the effect it has on the home must be absolutely unbelievable.

Can you imagine the fun of decorating this home? I think I would need another million or so to complete that project! I would leave the walls all white and just bring in color with sleek, contemporary furniture. How would you decorate this home??

This modern home is for sale, and you can view the description and more photos here.
