| T.G is on a roll. Soft blues and a beach-y vibe. We feel like we have been on a loco-motion train....Remember that song, oldies, but goodies. Come on baby do the Loco- motion with me. We have had such beautiful weather in southern California. We are loving summer. OK, were kinda rambling here.... |
 |
| Designer Kari Arendsen is a designer in orange county. Her style feels like you're on vacation and you might find a surfboard leaning against a corner of the room. Just a beach-y wonderful feel. So, do you think we are on a theme here? |
 |
| We have been posting homes that have that summer, casual feel. |
 |
| Love how Kari mixes patterns together. Everything plays a role in the design pattern coming together. The prints, fabrics and even the texture in the table. |
 |
| Do you love the grass cloth in the bookshelves? |
 |
| Can not believe that it is already June! Yikes! |
 |
| Soft calm colors. |
 |
| Isn't this mirror wonderful in the background. |
 |
| We love the gray patina headboard. |
 |
| |
 |
| Now, this is an arm to a chair! Not bad..... |
 |
| We hope you had a great long weekend. Danni now has boxes to her knees instead of her eyeballs. She is unpacking and making her new home her own. Julie's chairs are a bigger project than she thought, much bigger. A project that was planned for a two day stint will end up being a week, hopefully! A lot of you want to know what we thought about the Annie Sloans paint. We will give you the low down when the project is done. T.G. loves Kari's style, if you want to see more go here. |
Maybe it's the SoCal gal in me but I loved very room you've shown today. I will visit he link...I believe I've heard her name and even seen her rooms but I difinitely need a second look.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the chair and to hear what you two think of the Annie Sloan paint.
Hope you have a relaxing Memorial Day.

How gorgeous. I spied a huge sea fan. Never seen one that large.
ReplyDeleteLove this designer's work. I am with you on the headboard! Love.

Happy Monday.Teresa

Wow I love your house. Its very beautiful Soft calm colors, and very beautiful furniture. I like your living room, kitchen, dining room etc.
ReplyDeletemom, love those big butterfly prints.. if only we could find some!
ReplyDeleteWe're catching your vibe here on the east coast, Julie! Those Good Vibrations of Endless Summer... Do you remember that movie? Wonder if I can find it on Netflicks... We're enjoying incredible Indian Summer weather here, which gets me thinking about warm cozy earth tones, fireplaces, comforters and duvee covers... (And hot chocolate in the morning...)
ReplyDeleteCheers,
John
Love her style! Born and raised in Southern CA I will always have a little beach vibe in my home. Gorgeous two toned kitchen and the head board is stunning. Great color, and you are right about the patina ;)
