My Recent Order From Aidan Gray

Photobucket


I love the look of Aidan Gray and I'm so excited because I placed an order with them today!  I bought two of the Chateau Pinot Wall Candelabra and I plan to hang one on each side of my botanical prints which are above our couch.  Then, I bought the fluted lamp for our living room table.  Leave it to me though to fall in love with something that is temporarily out of stock!  Grr.

I'm also thinking about replacing our living room side table with a gathered linen skirt from Wisteria and pairing it with an antiqued glass top from Ballard Designs.  Thank goodness I love this look because I am limited on table options.  I have to have something skirted because the hubs has a subwoofer and wires that I refuse to let be seen.

Does anyone else have an Aidan Gray obsession like me?  And Wisteria?!

What I Want Now: Antelope Carpet by Stark

Oh my, oh my!  I am currently obsessed with the antelope carpet by Stark.  It is fabulous and a different masculine option rather than seagrass which is a common find here in Houston and other Texas cities.  Don't get me wrong, I adore seagrass and have it in various places in my home.  But I am head-over-heels for this look and hopefully I will have the chance to use it one day.  I think it would look amazing not only in a study, but a children's playroom (if you have all boys like me!) or even in a guest room.

I've heard the antelope carpet is pricey, but not absurd and there is a waiting list.  Lucky for me, the space I envision it in is not too big!

What I Want Now: A Tight Back Sofa

Photobucket

My husband would like to remind me that we just designed our living room 2 years ago, but I'm ready to change again.  What I want so bad is a tight back couch.  I ADORE the look.  And not only that, I am so tired of fluffing my couch pillows because the boys are constantly grabbing them and throwing them down.  Tight back couch = problem solved.  I know, I know, they are probably not the most comfortable option, but to be honest, the couch is mainly used when guests come over to sit, not recline and take a nap.  We sit on our club chairs and the boys are all over the place.
