No one can ever have to many pillows. It’s the easiest way to freshen up a space! I love the soft colors used in these Fred Shand pillows which are available at Anthropologie. Also the tiny coral cross-stitches and printed and appliqué plumes are pretty awesome.

This industrial kitchen feels warm, probably due to the pretty rug and fantastic light fixture. I’m a huge fan of metal and wood mixed so this space would fit nicely in my imaginary dream home. If you are on the lookout for your next dream kitchen, find kitchen ranges by Wren Kitchens.

I’ve been working with a client online who really likes mid century/modern/scandinavian but doesn’t feel like it fits her lifestyle. She also doesn’t want to buy all new furniture and accessories.
