kitchen crush

This kitchen has a little bit of all my favorite things:  white cabinetry, mid century modern chairs, a little splash of blue, and beautiful light fixtures.  So perfect.

To Gingham or Not to Gingham?

Today I bought the new issue of Elle Decor (YAY!). Every month Elle Decor has a section called "trend alert" and this month's trend is gingham. Now, I am not so sure about this trend. I mean, I just can't get into gingham. I feel like it doesn't add anything to rooms and more often than not just comes off country looking (and not the good kind of country). I scoured the internet for examples of gingham in interior design. Every time I just wrinkle my nose and say , "Eh." It isn't horrible but it just doesn't tickle my fancy! What's your opinion on the gingham trend?

Today I bought the June 2010 issue of Elle Decor and when I was flipping through the pages this ad immediately caught my eye. I mean it is just gorgeous! I immediately knew I had to blog about it and share this amazing ad showcasing Madeline Weinrib's talent. I went to the Madeline Weinrib website and was fell in love with all of the bold colors and patterns! Here are some of my favorites from her collections!
