City Prints from Binth

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

Picture 10

These electric blue framed city posters ($38, includes the frame) by Binth caught my eye this morning… London, Paris, New York, Berlin (plus Chicago and San Francisco).  A set of four would look sweet in a nursery  or in an entry way. Since each print only measures 8 x 10, multiples are critical for making a statement.  I hate the “etsy” effect … a tiny print or two on a sea of a white wall.

Found thanks to this morning’s Stroller Traffic newsletter

Gourmet Magazine Covers: Part II

Tuesday, August 11th, 2009

My kitchen is insanely hard to take good photos in, but, really this is just to show that I took your good advice from this post and moved the Gourmet Magazine covers from the 1970s (which I bought on ebay) farther apart and reframed them in cheap ($11) frames from this great online store. I ordered their Simple Black Photo Frame-8.5×11 which are perfect for magazine covers.  PS Use coupon code TY10 for 10 percent off your order!

On the wall

Sunday, July 12th, 2009

This awesome kitchen and plate collection caught my eye (how cute are those anchor curtains?) and reminded me of the wall of fish plates from Martha Stewart Living awhile back.

Then I saw this awesome project from Fine Little Day below involving drawing on vintage plates with a porcelain pen.

That blue box of butterflies and the round mirror are just perfect.  See more on gallery walls here.

This is a bill of Marilyn Monroe’s for champagne and a nice bottle too!  It sold recently at the auction house Bonhams for $397 (which seems somehow both expensive and cheap).  I’m not crazy about memorabilia, but this is so small, and so glamorous, it would be perfect as part of my fantasy gallery wall.  See much more of Marilyn over at The English Muse, who is always finding wonderful things.

Let’s see: I’m getting into a routine with Alex, who is growing like a weed, which is wonderful. Tim went back to work last week, so I took it slow and spent days watching the second and third season of The Office.  Pam and Jim’s love story had me riveted to the couch.  I’m hoping to be back to blogging more regularly, and reading my favorite blogs more regularly too!

We have acres of walls in the new place… loving this framed wallpaper from SeeSaw Designs (via DIY Network).

This image caught my eye as in our old apartment (below) we had lots of “leaning” art (see more of that apartment over at Design*Sponge). I loved it in that apartment (but we’ve been hanging all our art in this new one!). Something about this image above just seems clean and modern and crisp. It helps that I love the art collection!
