Perfect Porches

It's starting to feel a little like porch season......they're calling for sunny and 70 this weekend.The book Perfect Porches: Designing Welcoming Spaces for Outdoor Living by Paula Wallace has me all aflutter.Great ideas from classic traditional to contemporary and everything in between.Makes me want to make some iced tea and grab a good book......

Bazaar Style

It's no secret...I'm a big flickr fan and was quite delighted to come across this great group called Bazaar Style which features informal decorating using found or repurposed items in a colorful and kitschy way. There were so many great images to chose that this post is one of three from this grouping so stay tuned for more bazaar style candy. All images from Bazaar Style on flickr.
