design moments in le home of moi

Just thought I would share some of my favorite design moments in my home….which is always in constant decor transition. But, here’s a peek at what’s going on as of late.

This is my living room as you walk in the front door. I’m loving the pops of color as we definitely needed it in this little apartment. It really does brighten up the space.

As soon as I saw this coffee table on craigslist, I had to have it. It’s what I never knew I wanted. And it works perfectly in helping to brighten up the dark furniture. For whatever reason I am loving white in decor these days. And color. Color and white mixed is just yummy. And isn’t that flower ball amazing? We got to take it home from a wedding this last weekend.

This is what you look at as you are sitting on the couch. It helps to balance out the oddly placed fireplace. I have a feeling I will constantly be changing up what goes on the shelves. But for now, this works.

My sister got my this clock for me at Christmas one year, and I have it in our hallway right now. I think it’s adorable, and it makes me smile every time I walk by it.

This is a “moment” beside Taylor’s bed. It’s extra special to me, because of the ships wheel on his shelf. It was the only thing I was able to have from my dad, who passed away almost 7 years ago. (Long story for another time) I love that I was able to incorporate it into Tay’s room. I also put up those pictures of vintage cars, because they were a favorite of my dads as well. He actually had a Woody in mint condition when he passed away. He was so proud of it.

This is my most favorite moment in the whole apartment. The patio outside our bedroom. The couches are so cozy, the view is amazing, and it’s so nice and clean and without kid stuff. I love going out at night to watch the sunset or during nap time to read a magazine. Being that it faces a neighborhood and a canyon, it’s incredibly quiet and peaceful.
So, thanks for visiting my casa, and I’m sure in a short amount time things will change again, and when it does I will be sure to post more pictures…

  1. i love your casa. you have amazing taste. great pieces and fun color schemes and patterns. i would like the white table for myself, it’s very shabby chic {maybe shabby chic is over and i shouldn’t be using that term-not sure}. i also like the organization ideas on the shelves. love those art pieces in your son’s bedroom. lil’ D’s room is my favorite. i have worked hard to make my house a “home.” have a wonderful day and thanks for sharing. take care.

  2. Ok that clock is very cool!!! There is a thrift store, I guess you could say, in my town that used to have a big clock like that and I wanted it so bad. It was an outside clock, like on a light pole type base but the clock part was just like that…make sense? LOL
