Eames Home Tour

{All Photos Courtesy of Eames house 250}

The Design Within Reach catalog came last night and this morning as I methodically flipped through searching for new stools, I was happily taken with the Eames Collection. I had seen it for years but never actually read anything about Charles and Ray Eames. Have you? Here's a sample of some Interior shots of their home, that is now the Eames Foundation and open for guided tours. I would love to see in person where their creative lives were lived! I believe these shots are Case Study #8 home pictures, or maybe a combo of the beach house #22 and #8...either way I'm looking forward to reading more about their lives.

I want to go. 

1-2-3 You pick

Do you do this? I am constantly changing, rearranging, adding and moving our furniture around and around. It actually might be either an addiction or ocd, not sure which but it makes me happy! This is the same living space furnished in three different ways.

I'm Here! And Happy Weekend

Well, not actually here as in where the picture is...nope, not the bathtub (Although doesn't it look fabulous?) but I am here, alive and well and I've missed you! Life is like that sometimes. Breaks are needed, vacations taken and then life gets back to the way it was before all the breaks and vacations, and then you realize that you've actually missed "life" as mundane as it can feel sometimes. But it's yours and it's beautiful.

So, I'm back and I'm going to try to post atleast a few times a week and catch up with your blogs too.

Happy Weekend, make it wonderful!

I found this Blog too and wanted to share it with you.

I'm really happy to be back!

Open Mind (What's your favorite part of this home)

Amazing! I've missed being here over the past few weeks. Not too sure where the time goes, but it definitely goes really fast...too fast most of the time.

What's your favorite part or object in this home? I'm guessing you probably know what mine is!

Monday's Home

How cool is this house? The space where the couch is looks more like a sunroom than it does a living room but either way they have really created a warm, relaxed and vintage looking room.

The weekend was pretty uneventful, just settling back in after our Colorado trip. Washing clothes, taking the Christmas decorations down and just spending some quiet relaxing time together. Yesterday I made this delicious soup and this pumpkin bread (I was cleaning out my pantry and I spotted a can of pumpkin puree, why not?). Both were so simple to make. 

Did I tell you that I'm switching back to organizing in a Day Planner? So pre-iphone, I know! But, I'm forgetting too much with just using my phone, I need to write it and see it. 

See ya tomorrow.

Getting back...2013

I have to honestly say thay I am truly happy that the holidays are over, the tree will be down in a couple days and my home (and us) can begin to settle in for the winter. Over the next few months I have some projects that I'm diving into and just doing things that make me happy and that I've been putting off. I'm looking forward to welcoming the next few months of winter with open arms, looking at it as a time for me to get things done. 

What projects have you started but haven't finished...you know you have atleast one!

Have a beautiful weekend!

Silence

It's been a hard couple days in the wake of the recent news, hard to even write about it as it's just so sad. 

Sending light and love to everyone.
