Trench Coats, Umbrellas & Spring ....PLEASE



Please 
we are sick of the winter!!!



I am so into the short trench coat/jackets!!





Maybe.....I am still making my mind up


I most certainly am not !!!!!
I am waiting and waiting for spring.
Throw me a bone!!!
More sun and less freezing temperatures.


If only I could see a bud.....some life.

 
Maine is the most beautiful 
but the last months can be dismal.
I suffer from seasonal depression and this winter has been a doozy. 


But...........when spring breaks....
there is hope.
Then I KNOW the greatest season approaches,
summer in Maine.
There is nothing like it anywhere.



I am holding on to the hope of spring.

Real Mainers fishing in the spring



Do you like the short trench coat?
Have a great week.
And
I hope it is raining where you are
and the bulbs are blooming!

Sebastian Errazuriz's Table And Shelving Unit

Sebastian Errazuriz has created somethings that are brilliant, whimsical and yes,
sophisticated.

A real tree for a dining room table base.


The tree along with metal bars support the table.
Imagine you dinner guests reaction.
WOW

I love things that are beautiful and unexpected!!!
I see French Louis dining chairs upholstered
in zebra at this table.
Yeah Baby!



And this bookshelf is just what you might need in a room!
He also has designed these shelving units tall as a tree might grow,
up and around a door jam.


Fun! Really Fun.

What You Do Can With WOOD Flooring Materials


I have fallen in love with wood all over again.


I sell all sorts of ways to cover your floors....
Real hardwood flooring is gorgeous but requires a great deal of care.
Just think of how you need to protect your fine furniture from everyday 
wear and tear.
You use coasters right?
You don't through your car keys on your dining room table,
right?
You wouldn't allow your dog to run across your dining room table either,
It would scratch it.
Well.....
imagine you now have a whole house or room to care for in the same way.

This is something I could not deal with.


Laminate and vinyl flooring has come a long way.
Not to mention porcelain wood tiles for the floor.


You can run your flooring up the walls.



Vinyl wood tiles


Love this chevron patterned wood floor.
(and my colors....black & white)


More ways to have your wood floor installed.


they will also install wood flooring like this ( above).


If I had this beautiful wood floor.....
and someone came to my house and had a tiny pebble 
stuck in the sole of their shoe
and proceeded to walk all over the house with me -
there would be a deep scratch all over the wood floor.
OMG!!!

You say...."well, just sand it and refinish it"
NOT!
You would never get the finish to match exactly.
This would just flip me out.
That is all I would see when I walked in the room.

This is why I think all the other wood floor alternatives are the best options.
*Laminate, porcelain and vinyl wood floors
Sanity!


On the left of this picture are cobble real wood tiles.


These are also cobble real wood tiles


Wood just gives atmosphere to a space.
A warmth.
The coziness that I crave.


Cross sections of lumber and cross sections of twigs.


You can also lay your wood floor symmetrically.
It's a great look. 
*There is an example in one of the pictures at the beginning of this post.
4th down


Porcelain Wood flooring


More porcelain wood tiles


Yes. This is porcelain too.


Here the wood flooring is run right up the walls.
Love It.


Here beautiful laminate flooring can be applied to the walls.
Laminate flooring comes in all types of finishes and colors as do
real wood planks, vinyl wood flooring and porcelain tiles.



Real wood tiles.


I adore how this wood is applied to the floor.
It can go contemporary or traditional.



Cut wood planks stacked to create a wall covering.


*Here's another tip

You can use laminate or vinyl wood flooring to make a table or desk top.


There is just so much you can do with wood flooring!!

You really must go to see my favorite wood and vinyl flooring site.
They have gorgeous real wood floors and to EXACTLY match the have vinyl wood floors to use when you get to the kitchens and bathrooms.
GO HERE Du Chateau Floors

Just imagine how it would be if each of us,

If only for a few hours of everyday,We could be in a space that is our very own.A place that is exactly the way we want it to be

Surrounded by all the things we wanted to see,

The atmosphere we wanted feel, smell and the sound we wanted to listen to.
