Friday Foursome

Welcome to this week’s Friday Foursome, where I share a few of the things that made me swoon over the past week.

KateHolstein12-1000x1498

Have you ever dreamed of buying a little beach shack on a Caribbean island?  This couple did just that. All they needed was 2,000 square feet to create the ultimate island getaway.

I just love these concrete candlesticks – would be cool on a fireplace mantel against a dark colored wall.

I’m so excited to come across this Etsy shop that sells the most unique blankets, beach towels and picnic blankets.  Aren’t these textiles gorgeous?

Doesn’t this weather get you thinking about summer?  I love that this Hamptons summer retreat was created out of three small barns.

A simple and inexpensive way give an old fireplace a clean modern look.

fabric

This great fabric from Spoonflower has the look of authentic African mudcloth at a fraction of the cost … would make cute pillows like this …

I just cannot stop thinking about the cool light fixture doubled up over a long dining room table in this Chatham, Massachusetts home.

How fun are these storage boxes? Perfect for Spring Organization projects.

I’m off next week on Spring Break with the family! Hope everyone has a great Easter weekend!

Fresh Textiles out of Lonny

I finally carved out  little time to check out the latest issue of one of my favorite online magazines … Lonny.

As usual, the pages are filled with tons of swoon worthy goodies and pictures, but I was especially drawn to some of the fresh, new textile lines that were featured. Such as …

… the charming prints on Mia and Finn bedding. Inspired by Victorian decorative elements and antique French linens, the patterns are both colorful and minimalist. I like how everything is sold separately in  mix-and-matchable colorways.

 
I also love this line of bath towels from Turkish T.
These are authentic, hand-loomed Turkish bath towels, reinvented with a more playful, contemporary style. Already popular in Europe among chic beach goers, now we can get them in the U.S. (Apparently, they even caught the eye of Gwyneth Paltrow who wrote about them on her blog. She said, “They make the perfect pool towel but you can also use them as scarves, wraps, or even as tablecloths.”)

I especially love their Beach Candy Basic line … aren’t these perfect for the pool or beach?
Do you think they’d make you feel as happy and attractive as the people?
Also featured was the new Global Eclectic Collection by Eileen Fisher for Garnet Hill. Bedding, pillows, rugs … I love the mix of subtle patterns and rich colors.
Finally, I spotted one of my favorite fabrics by Kelly Wearstler on this cute little vanity chair  … it’s called Bengal Bazaar. And I’ve got a new long lumbar pillow for my bed being made out of it right now … in a different colorway! (So excited.) And oh yeah … I totally love that mirror too.
Also excited that summer officially starts today for these two …
Let the adventures begin!
