Another couple of weeks have passed...and what eventful weeks these have been! Especially the last one, with not one but two natural disasters hitting the East Coast. Thankfully we are ok here, but it has definitely been a little crazy! I hope you are all doing fine wherever you live.

House & Home

I promise I do have some fun posts in the coming weeks, including mood boards, my kitchen renovation project, and designer features, but in the meantime, I wanted to share this beautiful bedroom from Canadian House & Home if you haven't already seen it. To start, I love the wall color! It's BM Oxford Gray. I also love all the natural elements and textures in the room. Then, of course, the La Fiorentina fabric in the chair and pillows completes the room beautifully. I like the idea of repeating the same fabric but in different colorways in one space. Would you do that?

Have a great week!

Shopping for Fabrics at Tonic Living

I just came across a great online shop for fabrics, and thought I'd share! Tonic Living is a fun fabric shop out of Canada, but they do ship to the U.S. as well. Take a look at some of my favorites from their vast collection:

Delilah Quarts and Quatrefoils Pewter

Best Friend Gray and Cufflink Yellow

Quatrefoils Cream and Sweet William Sand

Cotton Oatmeal, Flatiron Black and Gladstone Black & White

Bloom Gray and Edenamber

Woodcut Garden Pink and Night & Day Sparkle

There is lots more to see on their website. What do you think? Who is your go-to source for fabrics?

Nice Fabrics at Jo-Ann

This weekend, in between painting (I had a small mishap and am still not done with the cabinet), I went to check out the new Jo-Anne Fabrics store that just opened near my home. I am sure many of you have had this store near you for a while, but the one we've had near here was not great - in fact, I had not gone into the store in years. I was pleasantly surprised to check out this new location. They have a great selection of fabrics, including Dwell, Robert Allen and Waverly, and much of it for 50% off! I couldn't believe it. I'm so glad to finally have a decent resource of fabrics near me.

Here are just a few of my favorites (that I could find online - there was a whole lot more to see at the store!)

Do you have a Jo-Anne near you? How do you like it?
