Collections
I was flipping through my new Martha Stewart Living at the gym this morning, and it was all hand-made valentines and chocolate confections, until this (!!!):
She has included a small section on trendy people and the timeless objects they collect!
I was so happy to see these artfully arranged collections, I actually forgot I was on the treadmill for a minute (just a minute, though). Love them!
And these are just my favorites!

Marvelous Update on an Old Favorite
I went cruising around over at Anthropologie today and found this guy! Just like those old west/aztec chairs, but with brighter fabric!
And there's loads more!

Lowcountry Style
Charleston is beautiful and their style, when not overly antiqued, is quite chic and neutral. Very relaxing.
Everyone here keeps telling us the best places to get "lowcountry" food - so far we figure this consists of shrimp and grits (neither of us even remotely likes grits so we haven't indulged), she-crab soup (really yummy when made right), and white hushpuppies (ultra tasty!). (I don't really count things like fried chicken and mashed potatoes 'cause we eat those at home all the time.)
So, back to design. I haven't been to many art galleries yet - saving them for tomorrow! But I did pick up a copy of Charleston Home magazine, and I really like it! So enjoy this home of a local artist from their most recent issue.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this room!! I mean, a purple ceiling?! That would have terrified me, but what does it NOT go with? A zebra head, antlers, and that fabulous dining table? CHECK! CHECK! CHECK!
I have finally embraced white, and, in my next house, I'm definitely painting all the walls white! This is such a peaceful space!
Read the full article and see the rest of the house here.

Packing My Bags
I'm heading out tomorrow morning for Charleston, SC (Josh's Christmas present to me)! Hopefully I'll get some posts up while I'm gone, but I'll for sure be back Friday with some Art on the Wall.
See ya later, alligator!

Happy Place
It was so warm here today, I found myself dancing in the car......not that that's entirely unusual!
