Let’s Drink.

It was right around this post in 2010 that I bought the bar car that you see in the picture below.  Although it will look much cuter once it is styled, I am thinking of selling this one and buying a new, more substantial bar cart.  (This is what drives my husband crazy about me… He: 1.) Sees no point in a bar cart in the first place (he just grabs a beer from the fridge.) and 2.) Can’t understand why this perfectly good bar cart won’t do.  He is convinced that I am on a mission to bankrupt us.
Anywho… There are so many beauties out there.  I love them all, so much more than mine.  Sigh.

For a Cool $8.9 M…

This could be yours.  Check out the San Francisco pad of One King’s Lane Co-Founder Ali Pincus and her husband (the man behind FarmVille and Mafia Wars), Mark Pincus.
 Beautifully Manicured.
 Loving how bright and cheery the kitchen is.. Didn’t love the yellow tiles at first, but they are growing on me.
 My favorite room of all– the foyer.  Oye….
 Would like to infuse a little more character into the dining room.
 I could take a soak in that Master Bath.
 Love it.
 Wine anyone?
 I would like to change a few things about this room.. starting with the apricot color on the walls… then the chandy.
 The guest bath is pretty simple.  Not to mention pretty awesome.  I would love to paint that trim around the windows black!
 I would love to girl this room up too.  What great bones.  Loving that window seat.
Look at that view, are you freaking kidding?
Yeah, I’d take it.

The Forgotten Element.

Have you ever noticed a room where there are so many amazing design elements, but it feels like something is missing?  All too often, designers fail to enhance what can be one of the most interesting elements of a room-  the ceiling.  As you can see from our home, the ceiling is one of the most important features in some of our favorite spaces.
Our Bedroom.  (Circa 2009.  Below is a more recent pic without the ceiling, some really exciting changes happening in that room too!)
Here are some other great rooms where the ceiling is the star of the show:
