Rose Patate at Vitrine

Rosepatate

 

I believe it was over at BKIds that I mentioned Rose Patate for the first time. And seeing her great new pillows over at Vitrine today convinced me again that her designs are absolutely my kind of thing!

Rose Patate aka Rachel Peloquin grew up between Montreal and England and currently lives and works as an independant textile designer in Paris. You can buy her textile collection right here

Clubgeluk

Some bright inspiration for you today from the Netherlands…Club Geluk or Club Lucky or the Happy Club… founder and maker of all these nice goodies is Marieke Voorsluijs and her new bold and colorful collection looks so cheerful…and I have to mention that I believe her pillow covers are so very reasonable priced!

The Marion House Book

Newhouseprojectkitchen



It was the first time this morning that I visited The Marion House Book, but will certainly not my last visit. The author of this great new blog is Emma and she lives in my old town Toronto. I really liked these before and after images of her kitchen…might have something to do with painting our home ourselves last weekend 🙂 I wasn’t sure about black and bought a very dark green color but looking at the black convinced me that black is definitely an option for another wall. Thanks Emma for sharing these images of your beautiful kitchen with us!
