New Ravenna Mosaics 12 December, 2009

In a course of my Saturday morning blogs reading (finally, after a week of deadlines and dues!) I stumbled upon Sara Baldwin Design Blog form New Ravenna Mosaics. And I saw this…and this…. and, of course, this…So have I left you longing for more?! I’m telling you, people, these are only tile borders. Can you imagine what they have for actual tiles and mosaics?! Here’s some sneak pics but for the rest of it you have to click here since I cannot have a 3-page post.

I’m absolutely in love with her new waterjet collection and precious jewel glass collection. My imagination sinks into creating new projects utilizing these amazing resources.

French Inspirations 2 December, 2009

I have two soft spot. One – for everything French (I could read French history for hours!)…and second one – for textiles and wallpapers. So no wonder  I couldn’t pass on these lines from Osborne & Little last spring collection. These Bu Barry Velvets and Pompadour wallpapers are so yummy.  So Santa baby, I wouldn’t mind a couple of things being reupholstered with a few accent pillows here and there.

And…oh, that wallpaper wall in the living room,you know.  I’ve  been an awful good girl. <images via www.osborneandlittle.com>

Mansour Modern 12 November, 2009

Everyone knows and loves antique Mansour Rugs but Mansour Modern Collections have some really great treasures as well. A few of my favorites:

mansour-modern-ecoThese two are from Eco Collection: Natique (Left) and Plywood (right). Plywood! What a great and animal-friendly substitution for zebra prints.

mansour-modern-hideThe Hyde collections blew me away. I want every single one of them in. Here Marque (left) and Massa (right).

mansour-modern-chinoisNo tacky CHINOISery here. Ming (left) and Porcelain (right).

mansour-modern-KerryJoyceAcclaimed Los Angeles-based interior and furniture designer Kerry Joyce brings electric inspiration to his luxurious  collection. Here Madera (left) and Su (right).
