Sunday Inspiration from My House

Now that another One Room Challenge has come and gone I am turning my attention to getting my house all cleaned and polished and spruced up before I start my Christmas decorating.

This week I added a couple of new things. I found these gold foo dogs on sale for half price at Z Gallerie and I had a rewards certificate so they were free! I love them with all the pink and gold on my Chinoiserie chest.

I picked up from the framers this week this wonderful leopard print by artist Caitlin McGauley. I love the combination of the modern print with the very classic Chinoiserie wallpaper in my dining room. Leopard and Chinoiserie are so good together.

Saturday Inspiration

Very old school Chinoiserie and quite charming with its burgundy grasscloth walls, framed botanicals, gorgeous velvet leopard chair, jute rug layered with needlepoint, and blue and white Chinese porcelain. I really love combining leopard velvet and blue and white Chinese porcelain.

A New Office for Mary McDonald- An Inspiration Board

Have you weighed in on Mary McDonald's office redo here? I was inspired to do my own inspiration board of an office update for her. I stuck with her new gray and coral palette that I love, with a mix of modern and vintage elements -

Meg Braff's Wallpaper Un Reve de Chine in White on Silver Mylar
Strut Large Table in Watermelon for the desk
Kartell Louis Ghost Chair in Black
Vintage Fornasetti Leopard Ottoman for her love of leopard and for an additional work surface
Silver Pagoda Lamps reminiscent of the pair in her previously blue office
