happy list: turquoise


I don't care if it's out of season.  It's my favorite and I think it's so lovely, whether as an accent or dominating a room.

(That last photo is our roommate's (of Please Welcome Your Judges) reaction when our other roommate and author of Bubbles&Banjos painted an accent wall in our kitchen - priceless)

I want to move in

Summertime in the South End means SoWa (South of Washington), the farmer's, artisan and vintage market dream.  Artists and collectors come out to show their wares, along with some local produce.  It is one of my most favorite things about summer, my neighborhood and Boston.

But enough of that, I want to talk about one booth in particular - Painted Pretty.  These gals have taste.  I wanted to move right into their booth.  Aqua black and white coloring with greenery and silver accessories scream moi.  I walked away with two silver dishes at $9 bucks a piece.  But the most exciting find?  After years of searching for the perfect nightstand and not settling for anything less than something I love, I found it!
Hands off, ladies.  This dry sink will be my nightstand!  Check out more fab finds on their blog if you can't make SoWa Sundays.
(a sweet little desk or vanity?  you decide)

(I'm quite certain I could find SOME place for you!)

 (this vanity and stool screams movie star)

(bonjour to you, too, french grey side table)

  (love the shape of this pool side table)
