"OH...MY...GOD"

With each page flip of VT Wonen I swear I gasped, "OH...MY...GOD"! The gorgeous colors, patterns, and texutres in the May issue have me satisfied for the rest of Spring!

that fluorescent orange-y pink on the deep seafoam-y green...I'm dying here!!

you think those pillows will make room for me! I'd love to snuggle up with them while drinking a cucumber mint water...or maybe a cucumber martini!

hot pink...you still got it!

darling, just darling.

now isn't this serene?!

sooo cute! can you image if this was your little guest cot?! wouldn't that be the sweetest thing ever?!

oh red, you're so sexy!

I always dreamed of having a bedroom in an attic!

one day my little girl...or maybe I...am going to have a hanging swing chair AND a glam ass bathroom!

Thank you Yellowtrace for introducing me to VT Wonen.

I'm still on my lighting kick! I was just browsing through Emmas Designblogg and I was going crazy over all the fabulous lighting she had in her images! I recognized and have used a lot of these fabulous lights and I love seeing them in other spaces! Check them out and be sure to check on out the links of my sources!!

This light here reminds me of Star Mandala by Stephen White I have used from Emmerson Troop. Absolutely Gorgeous!

You just saw these Double Disc Flush Mount Lights on my post about Gallery L7. I also love those Industrial Floor Lamps. You could pick something like these up at Empiric.

I think this is just stunning and wish I knew where to get it!

The modern spin on the antler floor lamp can be so fun in the right setting! A fresh coat of white paint and an oversized drum shade turn this from eeek to sleek!

One of my favorites! This 50's lucite and string light adds great texture and sculptural elements to any room. I hung it in a family room, but this idea as a table lamp is great as well! My source for this lamp was Dispela Antiques.

Love everything in this image. The light over the table is great and it reminds me a bit of this great Grace Lamp from Charming Unit! And I just love that Sputnik Light (I think it's a light!) on the floor! We used one similar to this in an entry of a very modern home and it was fabulous. They will customize this light for you at REWIRE!

Gallery L7

I am obsessed with light fixtures and I must thank Lori over at Gallery L7 for starting this obsession a few years ago when she was working with Rewire. I think Gallery L7 has the finest collection of vintage lighting in Los Angeles! Her eye for detail will just blow you away, she is incredibly cool, and so extremely helpful. I have not been over to her gallery space on Melrose in a bit, but as I sit here with my Ikea Lamp I am just dreaming of these sculptural beauties! I took a look through her 1st Dibs site and I want to show you just a few of her vintage flush mount fixtures...they are all just INCREDIBLE!!!
