Can't Get Enough Of

Hello Monday! Did you have a good weekend? Did you get President's Day off? If so, can I have your job? Ahh I kid, but I am with you in spirit...wishing I was in bed...drinking Chai tea...even working on the blog. But, nope...I'm here at work. At least I can share with you a recently discovered blog called Keltainen Talo Rannalla (In English means A Yellow House by the Sea). This new daily read is packed with inspiring interior selections and great featured items. Plus, I can't get enough of the exposure to foreign trends and magazines that I wouldn't normally find in North Carolina. Check out some of my favorites above and the accompanying links below.

1 via AT Casa, 2 & 3 via Tinekhome, 4 via Stephen Shuble Design, 5 & 6 via The Jeu de Paume Inspired Flickr Pool, and 7 via Hus & Hem.

    i love your finds. so lovely. i WANT that first photo. i want a montage of frames to cover a wall but fear of massive clutter feel scares me out of it. this reinforces my desire to do it.

    What a fun find - good job! I married into a Swedish family, so we have those charming painted horses too (its a requirement, apparently.)
    And in our antiques biz we are loving more and more the clean but not sterile Scandinavian aesthetic.
    I'm off to check out your other finds. Thanks!

    Anyway I hope your work day goes by really fast.

    I love all these images and a great new blog to add to my blog roll.

    Love that wall with all the picture frames - I'm afraid if I tried that it would look cluttered, but it looks so lovely here.

    i looooove that white chair featured in the second photo from the top. i've been seeing them in all types of design magazines lately and it just goes to further cement my need for one.

    this year. garage sales. i will find it. (mark my words!)

    I was shockingly off. And slept for 11 hours. Sadly, I think I would have slept more had there not been the dog that needed a walk. :-)

    I love these shots. I wish I had the guts to do a massive photo wall. I am fairly confident if I tried that it would look like it was a kindergarten class project gone horribly array!
