Weekend Wrap Up: Vol. 4

 

Hi friends.  Hooray for the weekend. It’s been a busy week so I’m planning to spend most of my weekend indoors tackling a few projects.  I have a few pieces of furniture to paint and I’m hoping to get some flowers planted on my deck.  And the last piece of furniture for my office arrived this week so I can finally put the finishing touches on my office.

To kick off the weekend, I’ve rounded up a few things that caught my eye and inspired me (or not) this week.  Enjoy the links and your weekend.

STYLE INSPIRATION

Once I looked through designer Lindsey Lane’s interior design portfolio, I headed to her Instagram feed and was just as smitten.  She’s definitely one to follow.

Have you guys been watching the reboot of Trading Spaces?  If so, I’d love to know what you think.  I was so excited for the relaunch but so far I’m a little disappointed in the room designed. With a $2000 design budget and more affordable and stylish decor on the market, I was hoping for an elevated level of design. So far I’m a bit let down by the rooms that have been created. It’s only episode 2 so I’m holding out that we’ll see some amazing room designs in future episodes.

Have you noticed that a silk scarf is the hot new accessory to add to a handbag?  I love the look and found a great source for silk scarves that are just .99 cents each.

Since we’re on the topic of shopping, you might want to check out the One Kings Lane warehouse sale.  There are so many great deals including this pillow set, this gorgeous headboard and this amazing crystal candelabra that’s on sale for $45.

I’m so excited about the new Good Company magazine by Grace Bonney of Design Sponge. If you loved Grace’s book, In the Company of Women you’ll definitely want to subscribe to this The magazine will hit newsstands on May 1st but you can pre-order a copy here (affiliate link).

Tips on How to Stretch Your Decorating Dollar from two of my favorite designers.  Great advice no matter what stage of decorating you are in.
