Desk Jobs







With a pretty desk like this you would have no excuse for not being organised!

the long weekend...


Aren't long weekends the best? 

This weekend I am madly organising for the arrival of my DD's (darling daughters...sadly my GB...that would be gorgeous boy is in the middle of exams) and some of their friends at our farm in St Rémy de Provence. I have made sure that the sun will be shining, the temperatures pool worthy and the fridge is well stocked. I am excited for their arrival and can't wait not only to see them but also to dote on their every whim...It is funny how a few years can make what was once a big chore with little children into the greatest of pleasures. I remember when my three were all under three and those tiring long days of babies and toddlers felt as if they would never end. Nowadays I can't get enough of them...Their company is the brightest, their friends the most entertaining and their wishes are my command. These days that mother's lament,  'when will I ever have time for myself', is the last thing I really want...

Have a happy weekend everyone....xv

Fabulous Room Friday 05.27.11

This week’s fabulous room is a chic, eclectic living space. I love that it is a relatively simple space, allowing for the items within it to really take the stage. The floors are out of this world as are the built-ins. I love the mix of traditional styles and shapes. Together, they look quite modern. I presume that the right wall is lined with windows since the room is flooded with light. I found this image via I Suwannee, but I have a sneaking suspicion that it is from one of my favorite foreign magazines, Spain’s Nuevo Estilo, judging by the book titles and general design aesthetic. Either way, it looks like a cozy and inspiring space.

What are your plans for Memorial Day? Have a wonderful, LONG weekend!
