e is for entertainment unit

You would think that with a step father that has a custom furniture company that one would be able to get the perfect entertainment unit, right? Well I guess all it takes is asking said step father to see if he's busy or not...


This is a good one. I like how they tv doesn't really look like a tv, I mean at first glance it just looks like it is some black picture on the wall. I like that.


I'm not sure I'm really a huge fan of this one, I don't like how they have the electronics so on display.

Again, this is a favorite of mine, the way that they've made the tv blend into the whole wall area. It's a winner in my books folks!

This one is perfect, right down to the globes and star, see, stars have been my "thing" since middle school, and I always wanted to have a collection of globes, but alas, I've only ever collected...one. This room is how I dream of having my cottage decorated one day. And I say cottage, even though I don't have one yet, I just know that i will have one. I even have a wicker chair exactly like that one already.

d is for dusting

Here's a question: When do normal people find the time to dust? I was just looking at a bunch of house tours and when there's a close up of these peoples table tops there is absolutely no dust at all. I mean, sure if you know your house is going to be published on the interweb, then you clean like mad for two days prior, but seriously are these people's homes this clean all the time?

dream home

I was just looking at apartment therapy and stumbled across my potential new favorite dream house. It is the most amazing house I have seen in a very long time, complete with amazing views and pool in the backyard! Love it! Check out the rest of the house tour here.

cat house

So this kind of follows the last post. I found this in the comments of the last house tour I was talking about (the kitty loft). Now this is one couple that is majorly devoted to their kitter cats! They've got a website, The Cat's House and it has a ton more photos than what I put up here, so I totally recommend taking a look if you're feeling down, or even if you just want to see some super happy cats!

Casey, look out! I want to do this to our house, k? thanks.

loveyoubabe!

They've made a cat walk through their entire house, through walls even.

I'm not sure how many cats they have but I'm pretty sure there's at least 3 more than just the ones in this photo.

Really, when you think about it, if you've got like 6 or 7 cats, then why not give them space above you so they're not always underfoot?

This guy wins best photo ever! I can't stop laughing, every time I look at it, he just looks so amazingly happy! Great, now i'm the crazy person at work that laughs to herself!

heavenly space

I have one particular website that I visit daily, if not multiple times a day, Desire To Inspire, it's just an absolute pleasure to the eye to see what they come up with to post every day. Then just a few minutes ago when I was looking on Apartment Therapy I came across a house tour of Kim, who is one half of Desire to Inspire. Looking at each pcture it is as if she took all my favorite design elements and threw them all in one house, and it actually works too! Especially the 6 cats element, I aspire to become a crazy cat lady with at least 6 cats.

Also check out the couch too! She and her boyfriend custom made it, and now it's all I can think about when I sit at home on my crappy couch. I'm thinking that with my connections (step father owning a custom furniture company) that I should be able to get one made easily. It's on the to-do list, among about 149 other things.
