Gotta give a round of applause to Etsy

I don't know if you remember this post, but a few months ago I was at the Long Beach Flea Market and saw this girl walking around with this needlepoint hanging - and I was sooo sad she got to it before I did. 

Well... Today is my lucky day - because LOOK at what I found on Etsy!!!

I am sooooo excited!!!! 

From the personal file AND on my radar - Insect Needlepoint Pillows.

Oh my goodness.... Jonathan Adler has done it again.

How bananas are these!?!?

Here's my living room - (excuse the pic) to refresh your memory.

I see my next splurge on the horizon - and its looking like it may be these!

These are my colors and I think would jive perfectly with my Trina Turk/F. Schumacher pillows.

What do you think?

Grandma Chic - and I love it!

"What is 'Grandma Chic'?" you ask.

It's a mixture of interesting swag lights, random-tongue-in-cheek wall art, bargello and needlepoint pillows, zippy wallpaper, and vintage/mid-century furniture finds all mashed up together - making a chic little mess.

And - I am totally feeling it.

JA @ South End Urban Showhouse

Last week was The South End Urban Showhouse in Boston. Many, many hot names designers took part in designing stunning rooms. Here is Jonathan Adler's. His is a little typical of what he does - but its his look - and I do like it a lot. His bargello and needlepoint pillows always make me smile!

Of course - what is Jonathan Adler without a Jere sculpture?!

LOVE this whole look!!! I love the mix of chartreuse, turquoise, and navy. I have these colors in my place now, and when I have the balls to put em up on the blog - you shall see!!

Flea Market Find

Aren't these great? I got them at the Long Beach flea market last month and just loved them. They are vintage needle points - that I plan to have made into pillows. I love them.
