Real Accessories Have Curves | {design no0b}

Real Accessories Have Curves. March 8, 2007 at 8:41 am. I love my furniture to be all clean lines and angles, but I love curves and rounded shapes in accessories. Here are two that I really love, both via Outblush. Then, these. I love these! I’ve certainly never thought about buying a birdhouse, but I’d totally hang these all over my backyard. They’re adorable. They’re like the VW bugs of birdhouses! Seriously. Go look at all the different colors. At the bottom of the page. Irresistible. Better than a ma...

You’ll want it to look perfect, but it ain’t. March 27, 2007 at 11:08 am. We closed on the house on Friday afternoon and started painting on Saturday morning. Our plan was to paint two rooms — our bedroom and the office. As we started up the stairs that morning my husband said “I think if we have time, we should just go ahead and paint the living room.” “Yeah, totally” I agreed. How wonderfully naive we both were. Turns out, painting? It was during this initial rolling that Keith uttered the phrase that ...

Freaking | {design no0b}

March 22, 2007 at 12:41 pm. I’ve been horrible with posting this week, but we’re closing on the house on Friday and I’ve been spending most of my free time:. 1Worrying about what checks I need to bring to the close. 3Cutting my finger on said boxes while breaking them down. I actually did order a duvet cover from CB2. And I’m curious to see if I like it with the blue walls in our bedroom or not. It’s the Lumimarja duvet:. Entry filed under: Bedding.

Trip to the Door Store | {design no0b}

Trip to the Door Store. March 6, 2007 at 9:41 pm. I still really disapprove of the name of this place. I didn’t see a SINGLE door for sale in there. So, we checked out both beds that I had mentioned before. 8212; the solid and basic and the tranquility bed. Neither one of us really cared for this one. Nothing offensive or displeasing about it, but it just didn’t do it for either of us. Entry filed under: Master bedroom. Real Accessories Have Curves. 1 Comment Add your own.

Lighting Novice | {design no0b}

https://designnoob.wordpress.com/2007/03/19/lighting-novice

March 19, 2007 at 6:08 am. Lighting novice is putting it mildly. My husband and I have cared so little about the lighting in our NYC apartment that I’m sitting here right now typing this post under some of the most hideous yellowish overhead lighting imaginable. I refuse. To let that happen in our new house. We’re going to get lamps, I promise. But, we’re also interested in installing recessed lighting in the living room. The problem?

Anyone need a new toaster? March 5, 2007 at 8:50 pm. Maybe it was Scrappy Girl’s post. Asking if a skirt with a tree design could be turned into a room, but I found myself checking out tree-themed textiles all day today. I love the colors in this room. I’d totally be into this look if I had, you know, floor to ceiling windows and owned absolutely nothing so as to insure this lovely spotless environment in my bedroom:. I love these pillows:. It’s all from Greener Grass Design. February 28, 2007 at 9:31 pm.

Project 2: The Writing’s on the…. March 13, 2007 at 7:12 am. I’ve mentioned that we’re going to paint both the bedroom and my husband’s office before we actually move in. I think we’re set on the bedroom paint (although, what to do with the ceiling? A few shades lighter than the walls? Oh, the pressure! We’re set on the office paints. We’re going to go with shaker gray for 3 walls. (Pic taken from the Benjamin Moore Personal Color Viewer.). Entry filed under: Office. Real Accessories Have Curves. Notify ...

Better than a mattress on the floor | {design no0b}

https://designnoob.wordpress.com/2007/04/10/better-than-a-mattress-on-the-floor

Better than a mattress on the floor. April 10, 2007 at 5:14 am. Not fun. Hard. Very hard. Some day soon I’ll be able to talk about the layers upon layers of contact paper that I removed from the kitchen, but today is not that day. Instead, I’ll talk about the bedroom. Anyway, I was very pleased to see that they had the Malm bed in the elusive black-brown color. That’s what I had wanted originally. So, here it is with the bed and one of the dressers. I really can’t stand the way the blue wall co...As you ...

Bed Fiesta | {design no0b}

https://designnoob.wordpress.com/2007/02/22/bed-fiesta

February 22, 2007 at 10:29 pm. You’d think I’d get sick of talking about beds…but, no. Walked home last night and happened to pass The Door Store. I spied a few beds inside and took a half a second to peer into the window. The store was already closed, but they had a few things that looked interesting. I’ve walked by The Door Store a hundred times, but why would I go into a store that, presumably, sells doors, if I was not in need of a door? It was the most beautiful damned cave you could imagine. I too,...
