Top Design Inspiration

What FUN! Last night on Bravo's Top Design challenge, all the contestants were supposed to design their rooms around a single hanging light fixture! I LOVE hanging lamps! It immediately inspired me to create some fresh collages of my various 1st Dibs vintage virtual shopping hunt finds. Here are the results. Now who wants to do the purchasing so I can design some rooms around these?

Bubbly fixtures are beautiful!

Smooth silhouettes can be elegant.

Spikey is Sassy & Swanky!

Capiz feels boho, beachy and pretty.

If anyone wants links to any of these let me know. For the time being, they are really just here for my own digital scrap booking purposes.

Goji Berries are Good

West Elm Green

Yvette and I got to visit the under construction West Elm Bay street store in Emeryville. The construction guys gave us this rendered image of what it is supposed to look like when it is completed (sorry the scan turned out a little funky but you get the idea). I am excited to see how the live green exterior wall and green roof are going to turn out.
