Home Offices to drool over

Posted by Mr Wong at 1:12 PM 0

ohhhh....I can't wait until I have my own place and can make the home office of my dreams! Here's hoping it'll look like one of these. In the meantime I'll steal some ideas that I can implement while I'm working from the dining room.

DREAMY home office. fireplace, desk with plenty of surface area looking out a window...

I do some light sewing, but I get really behind because I don't have a dedicated sewing desk. I have to get it out of it's box every time I use it and it just isn't working...

Okay so I know the two above are super matchy-matchy but they are from Pottery Barn. I love the big linen pinboard (shhh...those are easy to make yourself and much cheaper!) The organization ideas in these office setups are great.

Restful, glam bedrooms

It's gloomy out and I have quite the headache. ugh. It's just one of those days where all I want to do is lay in bed with fluffy covers and sleep. Being the glutton for punishment that I am, I thought the better option would be to drool over some super comfy, welcoming looking bedrooms.

I love white and grays.

While I like the glam look, I also really like simple and clean - it instantly makes me feel better

A gorgeous potpourri of rooms from Home-Designing

Posted by Mr Wong at 8:02 AM 0

Home-Designing.com has just released an e-book and were kind enough to mention Decorology and provide me with a copy. I thought I'd share with you my favorite images from the ebook. What do you think?

A clean and simple workspace with plenty of surface space is really important for me.

The bed is a little modern for me, but I still love this room

Could you live with this wallpaper?

Insired living rooms, from eclectic to retro

Posted by Mr Wong at 9:59 AM 0

Sorry I've been M.I.A you guys, I was traveling to Spain, where I'll be visiting with my boyfriend for a month until we leave on a nine week backpacking trip around Europe. I'll fill you in with more details later - so stay tuned!

For today I thought I'd just grace Decorology with some really great living rooms. Let me know which one is your fav!

Love this modern retro/industrial look. The carpet keeps it cozy.

Skona Hem always gets it right!

Don't you love this eclectic look? It's so warm and full of personality.

So glamorous but the exposed brick ads a nice edge to keep it from being to frou-frou

Love the rug, chairs, and salon-style wall.

A polished Scandinavian style home

Posted by Mr Wong at 8:41 AM 0

As you all know I'm a big fan of Scandinavian interiors, so I thought the lovely home of this young couple was worth sharing. It's a bit too "all white" for me, as my tastes have changed a little over the past year, but I still appreciate the rooms on an individual level.

Love the candelabra in the bathroom!

This is my favorite shot - the fabric inspiration board looks like art and ads a little personality to the place.

I have to admit I am not into the whole cow hide trend. I think the living room would look cozier with a regular rug, and instead of the two dining room chairs on the opposite side of the coffee table, something a little plusher.
