A Beautiful Yellow Pattern

This wall is striking...It was a DIY project.

Much to my surprise, I saw the same pattern the next day but on fabric.

I really like herringbone and chevron patterns, so this is right up my alley.  It's not the perfect uniform pattern that requires loads of precise taping but is a little more freehand.  I think I've just been inspired to paint something similar with my acrylics.  =)

Treasury of the Week - Grey and Yellow

I've been seeing this color combo everywhere, from J. Crew to CB2.  The yellow really pops against the cozy gray.

The "Perfect" Piece

Although I can appreciate the beauty in lots of different pieces of furniture, I find it very difficult to shop for it.  It's very easy for me to look at pieces and think that would look great in such and such a room, but when it comes time to actually making a purchase, I can take FOREVER to make a final decision.  Furniture is expensive and it is supposed to last forever, so you're making a very long term commitment which freaks me out a little.  What if I get sick of this color?  What if this starts to fall apart in a year?  What if something cooler comes out next season?  Yes, maybe I'm a little neurotic.

But today, I saw the most amazing dining table.

It's so modern and unique.  The best part is, it turns out that this table was a DIY project.  So, if we make it ourselves...there's no buyer's remorse to be had.  I must figure out a way to make this table! =)
