Modern Rugs

Posted on January 23, 2012 | Leave a comment

The use of modern rugs in apartments is becoming beyond just a fad, but are a way of making a statement about who you are and how unique you want your living space to be. Choosing the right design can be a challenge, but one that is refreshing and fun. A unique modern carpet will complete your room and create conversation with guests, like this rug by Esti Barnes, designer and founder of Top Floor. Image copyright Top Floor.

I love the color scheme in this Irvine custom rug from Irvine Carpet Design.

You can order a custom area rug online at Discount Purchases.com.

This round rug will really set off a spacious floor. Via Design Plus of Houston.

Vintage Room Style

Posted on October 13, 2011 | 1 comment

Vintage decor ideas are easy to find and when arranged with a keen eye to style and color an apartment can have a new fresh feel. Consider some of the following ideas I’ve found. All images via Apartment Therapy.

The incredible colors of this vintage style dining room bring life to a small space. The animal print rug add a nice touch.

Oh, the classic metal and “pleather” table and chairs from grandma’s kitchen. Love this clean green look.

Cute vintage appliances and sinks can add charm to a small kitchen space. Color choices here add style.

The vintage curve…love the use of different styled pieces here. I can almost feel that prickly vintage material on that couch. The hanging globe light and shag throw carpet are nice touches.

Don’t forget accessories! Are you a vintage fan yet??

Shabby Chic Summer…

Posted on July 6, 2011 | 1 comment

What speaks of a soft and cool summer than the pure whites of Shabby Chic decor? Love the summer cottage like feel of these design ideas. This room, by far, my favorite. The chandelier is gorgeous.

Love the muted tones and this rough finish table. The painting an awe inspiring splash of subtle color. (Is that my favorite chartreuse color I see?)

Inside Celebrity Homes…and closets!

Posted on May 17, 2011 | Leave a comment

Curiosity abounds when seeking out celebrity finds, and what more informative and inspiring way to get to know the inner life of someone than a peak into their closet? But with this article for Elle Decor, we’ve found some wonderful ideas for an apartment closet (if you’re lucky enough to have one…and a walk-in no less!) of any size. Also, I’ve know women to convert an extra room into a closet…so think outside the box…or the closet in this case.

Nanette Lapore’s fashionably glam closet in her Manhattan townhouse is more like a room one could live in than a closet. With crystal chandelier and a plush ottoman, I bet this fashion designer has a hard time leaving. Rug: ABC Carpet & Home.
