Cabbages & Roses: gorgeous clothes

and this time .... gorgeous clothes from Cabbages & Roses

Vintage details from Cabbages & Roses

 Cabbages & Roses is one of those all time favorite 

inspirational "stops" for me.  I just adore the use of fabric

/ pattern/ texture and the awesome detail shots.

Floral Accessories, for you, this time!

 Lovely items for you and your home .... all in a floral theme.

Don't you just love the sneakers and the necklace???

The Red Pantry

Are pantries a thing of the past? or, are they back in vogue?

All I know is that I do not have one, and would LOVE one  .... okay don 't get me wrong we have loads of cupboards in our spacious kitchen, but it's not the same ....  I'd love to be able to store my vases and jam jars and, and, and ... in neat rows, have eveything I need at hand ....it's also reminiscent of times gone by ....well you get it don't you?

This image from Home Life appeals not only because it is part of a pantry, but because it's orderly, has perfect packing shelves, is a crazy vibrant red and is decorated with old "posters"...... just perfect!!

how about you? do you have a pantry? do you think it's a necessity in our kitchen space?

Country Styled Kitchens

I adore a country styled kitchen, albeit with modern cons to get the job done in double time (hehe!)

This is another sampling of white or neutral based rooms enhanced with touches of natural textures such as wood.

White Slipcovers

slipcovers are one way to make a room look uniform and certainly a simple way to ring the changes from season to season ... or even to reavamp vintage pieces. 

Here to great effect, slipcovers in whites...
