Lovely Libraries Round Up

I am a huge, huge fan of Home Libraries...

I still believe in books. 

Even with our wonderful technology and Kindles, iPads, computers, & books on CD... 

I still love me a good book, and I still collect books as well. 

Having a personal "library" was always a goal of mine, and although ours is nothing 

compared to these amazing photos, it is still my favorite room in my home. 

Here are just a few of my favorite library photos floating around the web.

I adore the use of the green curtain, 

and how wonderful to have a room and collection large enough that you'd actually 

have use for a ladder... I mean really. Amazing.

Never in my life have I seen a home library like the one pictured above... 

I bet they don't have a clue what books are on their shelves, but that is one of the coolest rooms ever.

And I adore the idea of having the library above, kinda creating it's own floor. Genius.

Darling, cozy, colorful & fun. I want to hang out there!

Contemporary, chic & bright. Always a fan of a yellow sofa.

This is one of the most popular library photos out there... why? 

Well, I think that we are drawn-in by the charcoal shelves, pink tulip chairs, 

and whimsical shell chandelier...

 It's such a warm, unique and inviting room.

Fabulous Bathrooms Round-up

This gray paneled wall treatment is really quite impressive in a bathroom.

 I think it plays up the basketweave floor tile, which I adore.

And that light, usually used in a kitchen, makes an impressive addition to the bathroom.

To be honest... this is one of my favorite bathrooms. I just love it!

I love wallpaper in bathrooms. The wallpaper in the photo above is Schumacher.

I also love the glittery marble mosaic-tiled floor, marble counters and glass-droplet chandelier. 

The low, freestanding tub makes the room feel more spacious and opulent.

I'm always a fan a striped walls, and in a bathroom it adds the wow factor.

That copper tub is amazing.

Fresh, large & spacious is always nice.

I like that the tub has it's own little cubby area.

Bathrooms are a small area where you can add a lot of personality, 

or have a spa-like calm room. For a few more of my faves, check out my Pinterest.
