Lemon Drop Accessories

lemon drop accessories

A color I am hoping to see more of this year is the wonderful citrus hue: yellow! There is a progression of more gold used in interior design, and the warmth of lemon adds a youthful vibrancy that nicely balances the maturity and glamorousness of gold. Aren’t those just the happiest colors you have seen today? The lucite tray can be found here at Etsy, the lamp is the same one shown above by Jan Showers, and the Montecito Yellow Embroidered cushion is by Layla Grace.

Eclectic Kitchen by SieMatic

Siematic Beaux Arts Kitchen

SieMatic Kitchens have raised a very good proposition with this kitchen design; why choose one type of cabinet for the entire kitchen? All other rooms in a home are filled with coordinating pieces of differing styles, textures and colors to reach your desired effect, so why not in the kitchen? See the glossy ebony walnut of the fridge/ pantry, the matte lacquered finish of the lower cabinets, and then the polished chrome framed uppers. This kitchen is from their Beau Arts line.

Age In Place Bath

Moen Age in place bath

Aging in place for the older generation can be hazardous, particularly poorly planned bathrooms. With slick tiles, shower thresholds that are harder to step over, and lack of the necessary aids, it is no wonder The New York Times raises the thought that the bathroom is the most dangerous room in the home. It is very dangerous to use a generic towel bar or even door knob to steady oneself or gain leverage, and now the options to help are more readily available than every before. The new grabs bars for example, don’t look like the institutional styles that first come to mind. B in the image above is a grab bar and paper holder in one. Read more

New River Bank Barn

New River Bank Barn Exterior

After being invited to a wonderful wedding reception held in a restored barn this summer, I am fascinated by these converted spaces (I measured one of the barn floor boards at 21″ wide, incredible!). They once held the sustaining grain store, feed and shelter for animals, but with care and thoughtfulness now provide an intriguing place to entertain.
