Coffee TABLE ANYONE?

HAS BEEN SOLD

Hello everyone! How's your week so far. I can't tell you how odd it is to be in October & still be surrounded by humidity. NYC weather is strange no? This weather is keeping me indoors doing work & also rearranging the house - which means getting rid of a few things & bringing in new stuff!

This time I've decided to put my clear coffee table on SALE.  Just wanted to change a few things out  as I always do... The table has been featured on several blogs including my own - as you can see below!

It's in good condition - with a only a few minor scratches on the corners. I'm selling it for $150 or best offer, but this lucite coffee table originally retails for $279 at CB2, which you can see here.  No shipping, so you'd have to be NY local & come pick it up.  If interested, please email me.

Gallery Wall

Welcome back everyone! Hope you're weekend went well.

As for me, I've been putting together a gallery wall in my office for quite sometime now. I managed to sell the art that was here & now I'm adding some of my own.  This blank wall that stand over my desk area needs some art - & fast.  I put together these pieces below but still have a few more to add soon...stay tuned!

Most of the art below is my own- which you can purchase at MADE BY GIRL or Cocoa & Hearts - minus the Kate Moss print, which was a gift!


The lighting is the Meurice floor lamp by Jonathan Adler


This is one of the newest print at MADE BY GIRL - just added today! It's in french "NON & OUI indecis" - English translation is "No & Yes - Undecided" - this print also has a real gold paint swatch across the front.  I like to think it's a mix of MADE BY GIRL & Cocoa & Hearts!  You can buy yours here.

Frames can also be purchased via my shop - this one is the brushed gold frame.

MY HOME, MY SPACE

What is your favorite area in your home and why?

Hey everyone! Suna here from SunasHouse & I’m a self-taught interior decorator and an interior designer wannabe. I’m a full time student studying interior decorating and also running a blog  about the small projects I do for my house. I love affordably well designed spaces and share the ideas with people. What having a cozy and welcoming work space means to me is “Being myself”. Especially when you are a mom of two sons and a wife to a husband, you usually don’t have a small space in the house that can reflect your own personality and colors. A well-designed office space makes work more efficient, productive, and organized and helps you refine yourself.

My home office used to be a small, formal dining room that was barely used. I wanted to transfer the space to a space that I can enjoy every day. My two dark wood tables were perfect for me to transform into a big desk, on which I could have enough space to decorate some objects that I like, read books & magazine, organize mails/bills, play with my camera and use my laptop. Now I have my work space and I feel more productive, efficient and professional.







It is my most used space in my house and I love sitting on the chair working and looking outside to enjoy the weather and greens. And I still can use the table as a dining table when I have guests over. I feel comfortable, cozy and more productive in my work space. Every girl has to have their own space/office to enjoy their work. If you have a room that was barely in use like mine, please transfer the space to a room that you’ll love and use.
Don’t limit your space. Don’t let space give you the purpose, but you give them the purpose that you want. 


The thing that I love most about my office is that the space is no more abandoned and I have my own space to blog and spend my time in my house. I rebuilt and painted the two old dining tables to the big desk for me and I love it.








Do you have a fave space in your home? Email us a few photos & if we choose you, it could be featured in this series!

DESIGN: CHIC OFFICE ACCESSORIES

Hi MBG readers! Amanda here. Today I'll be sharing with you one of my favorite rooms to decorate: the home office. With my recent move, I am excited to finally have my own workspace and complete freedom to discover my personal style. And with summer in full swing, there's no better time to start redecorating or switching out images on the pinboard and gallery wall. 

Even though I had to use my dining area as a desk in my previous apartment, it was always the messiest and most susceptible to clutter. And for those working from home, it's the one room most spend in and we know how design affects the way we feel and think. Prettying up the space helps keep it the way it should be - constantly inspiring! For this office space, I chose Jennifer Fisher's soho showroom and office as the main inspiration. Her glam and edgy yet casual office is one I would love to spend long work days in.

MY HOME, MY SPACE



What is your favorite area in your home and why?

My name is Debbie Bouchard and I am a paralegal from Vancouver, British Columbia.   After fifteen years of renting, my boyfriend and I bought a condo and decorating it has become a bit of a hobby.  My favourite space is our living room with its office nook. I wanted our first place to be colourful, lively, original, and full of love.  After a long day, it’s nice to come home to a warm, cozy space...made complete with our beloved dog, Olive!

MY HOME, MY SPACE




What is your favorite area in your home and why?

Hey everyone! I'm Joanne Herda from Floor24Designs and I can't wait to show you my space. What is it, you may ask? Well, my favorite area in my home is.... my office.

My office space was intended to be utilized as a coat closet. But, the moment I looked in that "closet" I was already envisioning it as my private home office. I immediately took down all the measurements and started contemplating how to decorate and furnish this lovely space.


I took the previous white walls and added a splash of glam with a big print wallpaper. I surround myself with beautiful, fun & most importantly meaningful items. This helps me stay in a productive zone while working. I have artwork which my son painted, a limited edition poster of Madonna from her MDNA Tour, a vintage lamp, a small collection of glass paperweights and much more meaning items displayed on my desk. 






My office is quite organized. Not only because I am such a Type A personality, but I perform many duties in that space. I am a Business Owner, Homeschool Mom, and American Heart Association Passion Committee Member.

I look at my office as a place to get-away, a place to relax with a cup of coffee while reading blogs, and as a place that I can accomplish A LOT of work!






I LOVE surrounding myself with beautiful and meaning items, my office gives me a huge embrace of goodness every time I'm there.

MY HOME, MY SPACE


What is your favorite area in your home and why?

It's Hannah here, from inspirationalbliss. I wanted to send you some pictures of my favorite space in our small NYC apartment...my daughter's nursery. It's such a great space with amazing windows which, as you know, can be very hard to come by in the city! When I designed her room, I wanted it to be a room we would want to spend time in. My husband and I both are not fans of pastel pink everything like a lot of traditional girl nurseries! 




We wanted a simple, stylish room filled with character that our baby girl could grow up in. I like to mix modern and vintage pieces which is why I chose such a modern crib, white dresser, and rocker to balance out my great grandmother's dresser, little antique nick-knacks, boho style pom-pom garland we have above her crib, as well as the vintage inspired marquee light of her name that I made when I was 9 months pregnant! I'd have to say my favorite spot in her room is the reading nook we created in the corner. 






It gets amazing morning sunlight and I find Vivienne sitting there reading her books all the time. The colorful blanket we have on the floor was made by her great grandmother, which just makes the space all the more special. I also love the painting I made for above her changing table. She loves to look at all the colors in it when she's getting changed everyday.

VOGUE HOMES

I love VOGUE. I'm a fashion-lover at heart & love visiting Vogue for their fashion as well as their 'Apt with LSD' home section. My all time favorite has been the home of Nicole Hanley Mellon in NYC.
  
Why? ................Well, just visit this link and you'll see why. Her antelope carpet alone by Stark Carpet (one of my faves) - is unbelievable!  Oh.... what I would do to have my home office covered in this rug. NOT EVEN KIDDING. This is a compilation of my favorite shots from their awesome home tours....
