lighting || on a house hunt

so, husband and i are on the hunt for a new home. we're one for 50 so far. someone snuck in and beat us to the punch a couple of weeks ago, and i'm sort of sick over it because the house was nearly perfect, but i know that it just means there's a better one out there. blah blah blah.

last weekend, we actually looked at a house across the street from the home i grew up in. weird, right? well, it was weird. i'm not sure the house had been touched since it was built in the 70s. which, honestly, is what i'm wishing for so we i can update it to our my taste, but this one was a little too craaaaazy.

everything except the light fixtures, that is. i was absolutely obsessed with every last one of them! obsessed.

don't you feel like that chandelier is begging for some fancy red wallpaper, velvet drapes, an ornate moroccan table with big upholstered armchairs on either end, a mismatched set of vintage decanters on the barcart and gold accents dripping everywhere? i don't even like red and i'd still honor this chandelier with the room it deserves. i wish you could have seen how it sparkled.

wish i liked it enough to buy that crazy house. the search continues . . .

rockin to the oldies

i find myself in a strange pattern lately; trying to finish (or, really, start over on) the space we're in now, while remaining mindful of the fact that we won't be here much longer. read: budget-friendly. anyone that knows me is aware of my affinity for vintage treasures. i rarely make it through a shopping trip without bringing something home with me, so i've been avoiding antique malls and second-hand stores like the plague.

hubs and i were on a walk this past beautiful saturday and, as we passed the neighborhood antique mall, curiosities in the window beckoned and we found ourselves killing the next 2 hours searching for more of them. a few things caught my eye, as always:

note: the deer is taking a rest on the coolest 8' buffet. couldn't help but include it, despite the creepiness.

and what made it home from the window, you ask? these little guys! the brass owls are going to require some clean-up, but they've at least found a home for now.

let's rock

scrap that whole living room thing. i'm starting with these.

for a mere $3000, who wouldn't?
