So, we’re finally putting the finishing touches on my dad’s restaurant which means that the big reveal will be coming soon! Right now it’s down to the details, and on top of the perfect lighting we ordered from Barn Light Electric, I’m hunting for a pair of sconces to go in the bar… Which led me to these: [...]
I’ve always been a fan of the breakfast nook – a perfect casual spot to post up in the morning with coffee and a laptop, and I hope that someday I’ll have one. But lately, I’ve also been loving this idea… Just a simple little bench seat to cozy into on a Sunday morning while [...]
Diana I just a love breakfast nook and bench in the kitchen. It’s extra seating for a dinner party, and underneath a large sunny window, the perfect little area to unwind in the morning over a book and tea.
Danielle I’ve always wanted a couch in the kitchen, but this bench is just as cute! And yes, I agree with bench over the mini-desk. Who actually does work at those anyway?
Meg What a cute idea.
I love the additional seating this adds.
FripperyVintage Love a bench at a long table, great look.
Bliss-ologie Oh the natural light in that kitchen! Seriously so beautiful!!
Jaime Lopez I couldn’t agree more… I would much rather have a seating area than a small desk that really doesn’t function. I wish I had a larger kitchen so my husband and/or guests would have a place to hang while I am buzzing around getting things together.

Franki I luv the ladder!! franki
ashley kennedy Love this house! dying to see more of it.
fai oh my…swoon! love everything!
This weekend while shopping in LA we stumbled into a store that had some gorgeous piles of linens, and I had a hard time walking away from one. I love linens for the simple fact that they can be so many things – a throw, a chair cover, a beach or picnic blanket, a tablecloth. A really [...]
Silke Thanks for sharing. Love the colors!
Amy @ The American-Made Guide to Life Wow! Those are amazing. Linen is one of my favorite textiles.
meenal@maison marigold perfect for the season…xx meenal
It’s been a while since I’ve featured an all-out glam space around here, and it’s high time, don’t you think? What I didn’t expect is for the ‘space’ to be a hallway… Or maybe I should say, stairwell and landing. That makes it sound better, doesn’t it? Not that it needs any help, because this [...]
Bethany DeVore What a beautiful space, my dream stairway!
Intrinsic Beauty Love the glamorous yet natural simplicity!
Karen Albert Hi Cassandra, well I love mirrors, so I would have as many as possible in my home! Such a wonderful staircase!

Sincerely Sammie It reminds me a lot of how Gatsby’s house might look. The black accents make it look and feel very art deco. LOVE it!
FripperyVintage That light fixture is so glamorous!
Lexi That gold chandelier is crazzzy beautiful! Was totally inspired by it! I’d love to get one for the wedding event I am planning in Brisbane, the color theme is white, blue and gold!
Andi of My Beautiful Adventures This house is utter perfection!
meg That light fixture is amazing!
Now if only I could figure out a way to CIY it. 
Sarah Barksdale Design Love those mirrors. It really makes the space feel even bigger than it is
Franki Mirror, mirror on the wall…Wonderful!! franki
PARIS BEE kids blog Like the idea of the mirrors leading up the staircase. Just might have chosen different frames personally.
xoxo PARIS BEE kids blog
My Love Wedding Ring Wow! Love what they have done with those stairs!!
Orange County Photographer Kimble Photography Really great space. I love all the mirrors. Its beautiful.
Up in my little corner of the states, we Pacific Northwesters tend to get lost in many ways. In sports. In the design scene. In fashion. But, slowly, that’s been changing. I’ve seen my city (Seattle) start to evolve in the past couple of years. From a city I felt stuck in to a city [...]
joanna YAY!!!!!! seattle represent!
BrookeJ I can’t wait to look through it!
Melissa Where is that mirror from?!?! I love it!
Erin | House of Earnest I have always wanted to live in the PNW… not sure why, but hopefully I’ll at least get to visit sometime soon!
Cassandra LaValle Post author I would LOVE if you did!! Anytime girl, we’d be happy to have ya!
Molly {Dreams in HD} i live in the midwest but absolutely LOVE the PNW. my uncle lives in portland and i spent many happy summers as a girl driving around washington and oregon in his VW van listening to weezer and camping {two of my favorite places i remember were crater lake and the columbia river gorge}. such a gorgeous area of our country!
Cecilia I might live in Miami…but I would happily move to the PNW! It’s gorg!
cimmer “I’ve seen my city (Seattle) start to evolve in the past couple of years. From a city I felt stuck in to a city that I may never want to leave.”
I feel exactly the same way! I’ve been here three years and while I’m not 100% I’ll be here forever, there’s progressively less ‘faking it’ and much more ‘making it’ when I tell people about how great it is where I live.
Hooray for the PNW coming into its own
Bill Hi Cassandra
Please can you tell me who the artwork is by in the last shot?
I always look at your blog for inspiration. Your work is always beautiful and interesting.
Many thanks
Bill
Marta Vodrey Wow, stunning interiors! I’m definitely not from the PNW…I’m a prairie girl from Canada, but LOVE the looks.
Peter That black chair is so cool, I want one!
BRIAN PAQUETTE <3…SERIOUSLY. Thank you.
Melinda's Musings I’ve never been to Seattle, but it’s on my list of places to visit. I look forward to going there someday (maybe soon!)
Leigh Viner Have always wanted to visit Seattle and cannot wait until I finally do Lovely feature xo
Claire Thank you for this entry! I have been following your blog this past year, and it always inspires me with your great taste in design, fashion, and more. I left my lovely Seattle right after college to live in NYC and work in fashion, and have just decided to move back with my fiance this summer after 8 years out East. It’s been a bit scary and emotional to wrap my head around coming home, but this piece you wrote reminded me of all the reasons to live in such a beautiful place. I can’t wait to re-discover this place, and I so appreciate your words about the creative world that exists back home. Thank you for this!!
Time for another round of my favorite matchup game with some goodies I’ve discovered on pinterest recently where art and some pretty cool pieces have collided… I don’t mind a little rock collecting, but let’s be honest here – what girl wouldn’t want to be showered in gems on a daily basis!? Traditional woven wall hangings [...]
Karen Albert Cassandra it is so fun to play on Pinterest! Not enough hours in the day! Great catches!

Molly {Dreams in HD} love the art and pillow!
meg Love the “Blocked” set!
I feel like you could recreate this artwork onyour own. 
FripperyVintage Love that shower curtain so cute!
If there’s one thing I could do all day, it’s styling. When I was a merchandiser, I would spend hours perfecting one vignette, and my home is just the same (especially when it comes to my bookshelves – don’t even get me started on those!). So, naturally, I had a blast working with IMM living on [...]
Adrianne Hall I always LOVE how you put together a room. I have to say I’m torn between the horseshoe and the scorpion! The horseshoe is such a cute addition to your wall art like it belongs there. I also agree that the scorpion gives your dresser a cute edge to it without being gaudy! Love love love all the choices you selected!
Annette Lucille Thompson The scorpion ring holder stings yes! We are one in the same in a astrological sense – sign me up. The anchor would be my second choice as nautical provides a relaxing sense – you can almost smell the salt water just having one present in a room.
Natalie I love, love, love that horseshoe! Such a glam take on the age old good luck symbol. I love all your picks, though!

I also went and looked at the website — I LOVE the Trophy White Board. Adorable!
Jennifer Dolak Everything they have is super cute, but I think if I had to pick, it would be the balloon dog bookend (but seriously… everything on this list rocks!).
Meg The turquoise table is gorgeous!
Mackenzie Elrod OOO so fun and cute, I love the jars holding the tea, so much better than shoved in my cupboard!

jaime @ laviejaime the horseshoe- love!

Annie I adore that little anchor– how perfect!
Jessica It’s hard to pick between gorgeous and fabulous but I love the horseshoe. I love that lucky little number. Keeping those lucky fingers crossed.
Debbie Love it ALL, but if I had to pick JUST one, it would be the sweet balloon canine! Since I’m a sucker for rescued animals AND because my decor is generally lacking in the whimsical, I’d adopt him any day. Nice job, by the way!
Jessy Follman I love the Stroke of Luck horseshoe!
Tania The gnome bottle opener! Think I’m gonna have to get that! Thanks for the chance.
Cindy Aiton The anchor bottle opener is definitely speaking my love language. Thank you so much for offering such a beautiful giveaway.

Danielle Loving the scorpion jewelry holder! The gold accents are to die for!
Zandra Zuraw I love all your vignettes. I think my favorite, though, is your salon style wall. The horseshoe looks like it’s belonged there forever! It’s great to mix up 3-D pieces with different sizes of artwork….I’d love to incorporate the horseshoe on one of my walls! Thanks for sharing…
Zandra
Patty I adore the fox mirror (as well as the balloon doggie of course)!
Where did you find the gold polka dot glasses? I’ve been looking for a set forever!
Kristi Lee I’m not going to lie, the scorpion ring holder is to DIE for! The word “fierce” could not be more appropriate!

Come with me on my adventure in France.

Great shapes! Can’t wait for the big reveal!
There’s nothing better than a good sconce. seriously. I love them all, but the one at top left would look lovely on either side of a beautiful antique mirror in a bathroom…I adore the marble mixed with brass…lovely!
