I Love This Room

The weekend is coming to a close, so to cheer us all up I thought I'd post one of my favourite rooms. You may have already seen it, (it was the June 2011 cover of Canada's <a href="http://www.styleathome.com/homes/interiors/interior-sunny-living-and-dining-room/a/35938" target="_blank">Style at Home</a> magazine), but I still can't get enough! It's the living room of the magazine's contributing design editor Christine Hanlon. I love the space for its sunny, bright and refreshing vibe. Also, the colour pallet is amazing (I want a yellow and grey wedding scheme - one day).<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGvSLs-t8nlTtGItwOSmnQa95DaxvvBdbvsxSAYe-ia8-_2LIdp0cul1ULPS4HOVPvsE9MLqMOcDKViFVDvXk-vWB1_3OVJiy66A2E5Bje1y9rwBgmzI922R580f68nmph6PwS0DZWn-8/s1600/Christine+Hanlon+living+room+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGvSLs-t8nlTtGItwOSmnQa95DaxvvBdbvsxSAYe-ia8-_2LIdp0cul1ULPS4HOVPvsE9MLqMOcDKViFVDvXk-vWB1_3OVJiy66A2E5Bje1y9rwBgmzI922R580f68nmph6PwS0DZWn-8/s1600/Christine+Hanlon+living+room+1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsE-1_5NCRTQL06BhMiHRA8GqBUuYKV8PTho5k17TMvlmTwzh0u7jvLVrbcOeVs3Oa6dHZRRJqmbTs5houdUl4XrjFPUt2ruf-GNE5zeCvOpJA4sfBuLvWdmdxw3r53Tjg4sSZmYnzstM/s1600/Christine+Hanlon+living+room+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsE-1_5NCRTQL06BhMiHRA8GqBUuYKV8PTho5k17TMvlmTwzh0u7jvLVrbcOeVs3Oa6dHZRRJqmbTs5houdUl4XrjFPUt2ruf-GNE5zeCvOpJA4sfBuLvWdmdxw3r53Tjg4sSZmYnzstM/s1600/Christine+Hanlon+living+room+2.jpg" /></a></div>Doesn't that bamboo table just steal the whole show?

Favourite Furniture Fridays: The Louis Chair

Lately I've been featuring alot of mid-century modern furniture, such as the <a href="http://thedesignerlifestyle.blogspot.com/2011/12/favourite-furniture-fridays-eames.html">Eames Lounge</a>, the <a href="http://thedesignerlifestyle.blogspot.com/2012/01/favourite-furniture-fridays-eero.html">Tulip Table</a> and <a href="http://thedesignerlifestyle.blogspot.com/2012/01/favourite-furniture-fridays-vintage.html">Danish Teak Credenzas</a>. Today, I'm switching focus to the classic and traditional Louis Chair. Literally named for Louis XV and Louis XVI, 18th Century French Kings, this chair definitely gives off a regal vibe. There are many different styles of the chair, attributable to differing King Louis. The most notable differences is the shape of the back. My personal favourite is the medallion (aka round) back. Absolutely stunning, but simple and understated enough to blend seamlessly with most decor styles.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFp6XZYfQg0kvBwvAMGIFc4z5nKcFBWb4dulXnowYcD_EZVCBf2D4Oj7nIKAOlEhraoEfYM_oQGebDZ7U2La_CR-uTLScqxMg3gadG1FY-Xas2A6_0xL4G3WpQL6fsT1LkUQjA9n2DZTI/s1600/OLY136.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFp6XZYfQg0kvBwvAMGIFc4z5nKcFBWb4dulXnowYcD_EZVCBf2D4Oj7nIKAOlEhraoEfYM_oQGebDZ7U2La_CR-uTLScqxMg3gadG1FY-Xas2A6_0xL4G3WpQL6fsT1LkUQjA9n2DZTI/s320/OLY136.jpg" width="216" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.laylagrayce.com/Departments/Home-Store/Furniture/Seating/Side-Chairs.aspx?sortorder=2&page=all">via Layla Grace</a></td></tr></tbody></table><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_PZ-5u84A4aO3UpvtXpfzl05w42YZy2oH6tb6VD7Fqp4uIFn0w-hsQ-pRZoOl5QTLn9UbEjQxXbVqoUKJQBe74XcaAEBXg1sKgsc0ia2tYAX8zbOWnjjLtqRDH4crslC9cRT1gIiDOdM/s1600/sam+pynn+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_PZ-5u84A4aO3UpvtXpfzl05w42YZy2oH6tb6VD7Fqp4uIFn0w-hsQ-pRZoOl5QTLn9UbEjQxXbVqoUKJQBe74XcaAEBXg1sKgsc0ia2tYAX8zbOWnjjLtqRDH4crslC9cRT1gIiDOdM/s1600/sam+pynn+1.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">via Samantha Pynn</td></tr></tbody></table>^ Designer Samantha Pynn cleverly adds extra seating to this living room with a pair of Louis chairs in front of the glass doors.

You guys might notice that this morning, my blog looks COMPLETELY different.<br />This new design is definitely simpler, cleaner, and much more <i>me</i>.<br />I owe a <span style="font-size: large;">huge thank you</span> to an amazing creative talent and personal friend,<span style="font-size: x-large;"> <a href="http://www.lynneharris.ca/">Lynne</a></span>, for working with me to design a header and my 'about me' page.

I made the above prints simply using some wallpaper and frames.<br /><br />It's as easy as three simple steps:<br /><br />STEP ONE:<br /><b>Visit your local wallpaper store and ask for some samples of high end, beautiful wall paper that you think might work in your space.</b>This will be your print...and the best part is that it is absolutely <b>free!</b><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCEuJag36s13GGQrWJ4jQ2WD2YZF-Zx9WttdxGD8mr8a7Y8uXTsMA75AHTf04ysGcyrETKY53lJoOokPQD66mAdKHuX0ha4coMlr0Z5uoYE9iR60ZalZ98cbxAjqh2MTWdr-AUvYvs3Q/s1600/042.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCEuJag36s13GGQrWJ4jQ2WD2YZF-Zx9WttdxGD8mr8a7Y8uXTsMA75AHTf04ysGcyrETKY53lJoOokPQD66mAdKHuX0ha4coMlr0Z5uoYE9iR60ZalZ98cbxAjqh2MTWdr-AUvYvs3Q/s320/042.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>I loved the demask print in the bottom left, but decided to go with the branch pattern in black and white, as well as white and purple. Plum is the accent colour in my bathroom (which is the room I was planning to hang these in), so I liked the idea of using the same print in two different colours, and my shower curtain has similar branches on it.<br /><br />STEP TWO:<br /><b>Buy some nice frames, make sure it has a nice matte to give the print a polished look</b>. I went to my local Walmart and picked up these silver frames for around 20 dollars each. I liked them because they had a white matte and a smaller silver matte in the middle. <b>Frame the wallpaper (you can use the matte to crop the image exactly where you'd like it)</b>. You can crop three different areas of the same wall paper to make each frame different, but unified and cohesive.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ6-j9UfO4VV4JZ56SPkUvfTkpA6weoBa7z_VK0xFpMZxEoLHtUOvaGFS0Zp0c-7aoUZaBvjYVPeZ7dJiw7JpWPPcVmSuGxgmvws28iHNHxnAubY0csmrmdDuxodkIAKuIx3a1BLuPiA/s1600/045.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ6-j9UfO4VV4JZ56SPkUvfTkpA6weoBa7z_VK0xFpMZxEoLHtUOvaGFS0Zp0c-7aoUZaBvjYVPeZ7dJiw7JpWPPcVmSuGxgmvws28iHNHxnAubY0csmrmdDuxodkIAKuIx3a1BLuPiA/s320/045.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>STEP THREE:<br /><b>Hang your art! </b>Hang your frames in whatever way you want! I chose to hang all 3 in a level row, in the pattern of black branch, purple branch, black branch. Do whatever suits your room and your style.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZguQ_f2IwFviJqBoCV6R-bZQw2zy-g3WKLnr2xG1JwQRWytxiyMu_cHC2Stlo_Ub7Qg4xFn3cKpSviNGaD1ARG95mRvuUKSs9mNJ26gi1YfRQS3QZjO3blt-YkM_OLNacyLRoBesFOw/s1600/641.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZguQ_f2IwFviJqBoCV6R-bZQw2zy-g3WKLnr2xG1JwQRWytxiyMu_cHC2Stlo_Ub7Qg4xFn3cKpSviNGaD1ARG95mRvuUKSs9mNJ26gi1YfRQS3QZjO3blt-YkM_OLNacyLRoBesFOw/s320/641.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy2AMnoFT4nUuXjJpIw6StOarsE4tBtR06wbmJWvnFXHT8njEv_H4CcOXa-8AH3zV0Eez8mqharqSfMP8XIQhmFyotQ0TGxrl_emeQ-rRLLvH_i6PE44L7YfcXQv9KTqA0Ab8wOkctsA/s1600/048.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy2AMnoFT4nUuXjJpIw6StOarsE4tBtR06wbmJWvnFXHT8njEv_H4CcOXa-8AH3zV0Eez8mqharqSfMP8XIQhmFyotQ0TGxrl_emeQ-rRLLvH_i6PE44L7YfcXQv9KTqA0Ab8wOkctsA/s320/048.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />Hope you enjoyed this easy DIY!

I really haven't found a more perfect place to host a TV in currently constructed furniture. Mid-century modern furniture began following WWII, and continued through the 60s.<br /><br />Although retro and vintage in look, the pieces' clean lines and simplicity allow it to compliment more modern spaces quite well. Mark my words, I WILL have one of these beauties in my future living room.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhd7XxXGnZ6b93M7MWDWRe5dJScM8LmbMDZTOvd_9XpkQFcELetgnVkdPg55kXb479bUyY5rRzTuMfCSPNKWHrXhRgDc6dgbyMmikhU5H5-qA4gvGWbXRVG4IeqViBqBn_IB-IKcXkFA/s1600/emily+henderson+teak.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhd7XxXGnZ6b93M7MWDWRe5dJScM8LmbMDZTOvd_9XpkQFcELetgnVkdPg55kXb479bUyY5rRzTuMfCSPNKWHrXhRgDc6dgbyMmikhU5H5-qA4gvGWbXRVG4IeqViBqBn_IB-IKcXkFA/s1600/emily+henderson+teak.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.stylebyemilyhenderson.com/portfolio/" target="_blank">via Emily Henderson</a></td></tr></tbody></table>^^ Emily Henderson is one designer who clearly gets my love of teak. You can see it all over this room: the coffee table, the chair, and of course, that credenza!

I know there have been a ton of blog posts about Audrey and her iconic style, but that's the one great thing about Audrey: you can never get enough! (kind of like Sugar Crisp, only WAY better).

They just don't make them like this in Hollywood anymore folks!<br /><br />Audrey is also a humble homebody, reportedly saying "<span class="body">I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel".</span><br /><div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"></div><div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">What better way to celebrate this quote than to explore some simple ways to incorporate a little Audrey into our own spaces to refuel:</div><b><br /></b><br /><b>1) Audrey Hepburn artwork:</b><br />I have three pieces of art work/prints of Audrey Hepburn hanging in my bedroom.
