Next up in my ideas-for-our-future-home series is the living room. I love a good mix of masculine and feminine, and dark wood, charcoal, and gold.

Work Space

Though I love all of the travel and experiencing new cities we’ve been able to do, a piece of me is excited to be in a place for a longer period of time — somewhere more permanent where we can paint and wallpaper and feel like it’s our home for a long, long time. Hopefully by this time next year we’ll be settled and I’ll be able to put some of my decorating ideas into practice. I’ll be starting a series on the blog of inspiration boards of different rooms in the house. Hopefully it’s inspiring, and it’s a way for me to organize my decorating ideas, too! First up is the work space.

Also: I’m so excited to be guest posting on two of my favorite blogs today! I’m participating in Eileen’s Everyday Series {such a cute series!} here! And, I’m over on The Urban Slant with a beach weekend packing list. Be sure to stop by these two lovely ladies’ blogs!

Platner Tables

Ever since I saw a Nicole Cohen’s home feature in Rue {first image} I’ve been loving the look of Platner tables — the modern, wire tables with glass tops. They look fabulous as a dining or side table but my heart is set on the coffee table version, they’re such a statement piece. They are available here, but I’ve also seen them pop up on eBay and Craigslist for less expensive. What do you think of Platner tables? Are they a go or no?

Tulip Tables

Our old dining table just broke, so we’re on the hunt for one that will fit in the smaller apartments we’ll be living in for the next few years. These tulip tables are perfect, and I can see them turning into a breakfast nook table when we graduate into a bigger house with a bigger dining table.
