Okay, okay, I’m not going to Toronto, Canada but a girl can dream! The Elte Store in Toronto looks amazing. They have so many beautiful items like this sleek, glossy white lamp to the area rugs in the above photos. Just check out their catalog… you may need a napkin to dab that drool! Well, [...]

What may appear at first glance to be an unconventional armoire is actually a set of bookcases attached along one side. Opened, it’s a compact, self-contained innovative crafts or office nook. Closed, it’s far more decorative than any tidied-up desk, without the slightest hint of its contents. A totally and completely brilliant idea! To get [...]

What an amazing transformation! Jane of All the Luck in the World has re-covered a very sterile office chair with packing blankets which are usually used to wrap goods during transportation.
