Leather Pulls for Kitchen Drawers

I love this leather pull resource via one of my favorite blogs, Remodelista. Spinneybeck is an instant bookmark. Check out a great kitchen featuring these drawer pulls on remodelista.com.

Vintage Chenille Bedspreads
Posted on | February 27, 2009 | 3 Comments
Nothing says summer/beach house like a retro chenille blanket. I admit some are a bit goofy and over the top but a white version paired with a stripe bedskirt like the image above feels restrained bohemian. I found a few vintage versions on etsy.com that I thought were pretty cute. The pink bedspread is hard to resist (i own a few similar) but to get the look above you really need to stick with white. Maybe the color versions could go in a kids’ room? At the way bottom I found an affordable diamond pattern bedspread at L.L.Bean. Scour ebay, etsy, or thrift stores for more.
