Sunny Friday and the mood of adventure

It's Friday, the sun is shining and what's not to love? We have been doing a lot around the house and I have pretty much neglected any other good design elsewhere...
But it hasn't gotten unnoticed by me either! Yesterday I had time to browse some of my favorite shelter magazines and I found so many things I love, that I had a hard time looking through one. Do you get this feeling sometimes? You see so many wonderful things that you go into an excited overdrive? I can not explain it any better! It is so stimulating, that I have to stop for a while, because I needed to think!


Want to follow me along?


First I checked Livingetc, a magazine I regularly read. The happy colors, bohemian mixture and of course this knotty lamp drew me in!



I love all the colors of India, the patterns and combinations, LOVE!


Another fun lamp.Oversized and humorous!And I love the pillow too! Lot's of ideas to steal!


Then I was amused as within five pages of the same magazine two stylings appeared, which are pretty much identical: Small stool piled high with books? OK! It would not fly in my house. Someone would clearly knock it over or ruin the carefully stocked pile....
But the kitchen is fantastic...


And these articles were not related...


I love this happy vibe! Great sofa, all white surrounds get me every time! It's so summery! The large window almost feels like an artwork!


The homeowners clearly loves green! Me too! And the red wall! It's perfect!


I'd  like a big sky behind my couch!


Isn't this bed just so inviting? Fluffy white sheets, Bamboo frame, wood paneling, amazing chandelier and those riding boot! Love the entire ambiance!


On to the next: House &Garden, there were again a lot of beautiful pages to digest!
More elegance to be sure, but French classic design is always a hit with me!








So pretty and such beautiful finishes, colors and artwork! 
I do love this careful selection!
I adore this breakfast room. After my own heart! The striped rug, the contrasting quilted table cloth, the layering, the blue and white chinoiserie, the paintings.... Oh, the Southern charm!


Look at the loveliness of this bedroom! A wonderful antique Kelim anchors the room, setting the color scheme and mood!


I think I have to leave it at that! And I haven't even began to tell you about the amazing spread on Iris Apfel in the new AD magazine, or the lovely pages I turned admiring India Hick's island home. It has been endlessly good and entertaining. So may this post serve you as an inspiration!
Do take some time out this weekend and get inspired like I did and contemplate some changes which reflect your mood of adventure!


Have a happy weekend!
