Sorry guys for the lack of posts. It's been pretty hectic especially trying to keep up with 2 blogs. So posts may be more sporadic (at least until after finals are over), so please bear with me. :)La...
I'm a major fan of exposed brick when it comes to loft spaces. It helps to balance out the modern with the rustic and gives the room a warm and cozy feeling. I remember having brick walls in my first...
I am totally digging these retro bullet planters from Hip Haven. I think every decent mid-century home needs at least a couple at their doorstep and back entryway. They come in 3 sizes and you can pi...
Today I discovered an amazing new store called FIT. My sister had told me that a cute Japanese dollar store had opened up, but I didn't really know what I was getting into until I went for the first ...
Augie and Sherie both share a love for metal and sci fi, but it's Sherie's fondness for unique vintage items that is most evident in their retro abode.I'm totally envious of their gorgeous dining tab...
My style has been through a lot. It has relived the '50s, '60s, and '70s. Although I've started to dress more modern lately, I still enjoy watching others flaunt their retro flair and try to preserve...

A smattering of my current faves at CB2.
The first time I came across Angela Adams' work was on a Design*Sponge Sneak Peek (go figure!). I immediately fell in love with her textiles.Her rugs are plush, have great dimension, and add whimsy a...
I'm a big fan of the atomic era especially for its funky and whimsical designs. One classic piece from this genre is the Sputnik. If you keep the rest of the room simple and modern, the Sputnik can b...

I just couldn't keep all the beautifully bold-colored doors in my neighborhood to myself so here ya' go!
Many people may think of Pyrex as clear heavy duty ovenware, but if you look to the past (all the way to the 1900's!) or even in your local thrift store, you'll find the same sturdy cookware but in a...
Photo from I Love ClementineI was listening to the radio this morning and heard that the Wisconsin State Fair is now serving chocolate-covered bacon! Yeah, that's right! I've had fried PB&J sandw...
In a previous post, we featured Lunar Lounge's beautiful argyle shelving unit. Since the rest of their furniture is just as lovely, we think it is only appropriate to show off their Etsy site.They ha...
These are absolutely darling...I'm envying Thrift Bonanza who has been collecting them one by one. Her persistence and stealthy Ebay skills are applaudable. Now I want my own collection!
I'm kind of a neat freak when it comes to organization. I love furniture that provides a clever way of holding all my extra junk. Although my apartment is currently full to the max with shelves (most...
