Erin at House of Turquoise had a fun image of a Jonathan Adler room yesterday, and in it he had some LeRoy Nieman plates on the wall, which i loved. So i went to his site and found this fabulous piece of Waikiki and Diamond Head. It’s $5k but i still want one!

And i would still have this Kaypee Soh, “Back In the Day” in the same house…! A wild collection of Hawaii themed prints would be such a dream…

Young House Love has been a So’mace favorite for a long time now. Remember when we had a contest with them and one lucky winner got a So’mace pillow? We’ve watched this beautiful family grow A LOT over the years and look forward to more fabulous-ness from them in the future!
Anyway, i was totally blown away by this ‘before and after‘ one of their readers sent in, i mean truly blown away! I couldn’t resist sharing just in case you all had missed it for some reason. The makeover cost the homeowners $1200, which is truly unbelievable for what they turned this kitchen into. I love they did it all on their own, what a fun project to work on!

I would imagine all our So’mace fans also love Apartment Therapy so perhaps some of you have already seen this. But i just think it’s hands down, one the most absolutely adorable “cottages” i’ve ever seen. It brings to life, for me, the very essence and idea of “collecting”. Collecting random pieces you randomly fall in love with, with no worry about whether or not they’ll match or work with everything else you already have. If you love it, grab it and go with it because ultimately, everything will eventually fall into place.

Delights
I have a couple more sneak peak photos! Remember this adorable tiny house my family is building on their property on an island in Maine? Well, things are progressing and just couldn’t wait to share. We’ll be there soon on “holiday” (!) to see it all with our very own eyes! Already have some Kaypee Soh pillows and fun fabrics to reupholster some coastal antique type pieces…yay!



Keep up the awesome work!!
