wanting woven



"Wishing and hoping and thinking and praying Planning and dreaming each night of his charms"
in the words of the lovely dionne warwick - this is exactly what ive been doing.

i just looooove these gorgeous woven seating options from Design within Reach. i think they might call security at my local store soon. ive been visiting my loves daily. the stool is fast becoming my favorite i think with its little nod to utilitarian glamour, perfect proportions and delicately tapered legs............
this is what inspired me the other day. i got it for the shop but im really not sure i can part with it at all.

are you wanting woven as much as i am

a well rounded workspace





i'm totally loving this combo!!!! recently ive come to the realization that - with the etsy shop, my final year of grad school, this blog and a multitude of other projects i need a home work space.
thought living in a teeny tiny apartment has its advantages - like being able to vaccaume the entire place from top to bottom in under 15 minutes, making space for every part of your life can be a challenge- the traditional desk is out, and so is a wall mounted desk that come out at an angle. none of these options has been exciting or practical. but this weekend i was flipping back through some of my archived Domino magazines and came across and article on living in a studio apartment - and i got inspired!! i tried to post this inspiration but the file was too big! HA seems everything in my life is meant to be small.



what i love about this light fixture and what makes it perfect its that it can simply be hung on the wall and plugged in - a lovely way to create a directed light source with out the ability to install a pendant light in a rented apartment its tops!!

along with the table above - this one can also be found at ikea - i love the lines and the center hole is a perfect way to keep all the cords and wired corralled!
the last part of the inspiration requires a mix of vintage chairs - with the fall and back to school i've been having a thing for vintage wooden school chairs - here are a few i found on etsy that i think will fit in nicely!
