I am not such a fan of the coolness of this room and I am not really a marble fan, but I LOVE the metallic and the clean lines…….  You?

Now that I have my professional “approval”, thank you Kelly Hoppen, you don’t even know how grateful I am to you………….      I have been purchasing random items to fill my “dreaded” built-ins……..    I think I might just learn to love them………..     I might just get a “professional” photo of them next week to let you know how they are working………..now, if I could just find some more hammered silver accessories as I like the lightness and metallicness of them(you can use that word if you want to)     thank you Target and Pottery Barn for your items…………..       some more items that will be coming my way soon……

I believe my basement built-ins will soon be filled with these little tidbits of freshness, only…….   will most likely use natural stones with a white bud, unless of course I find something else that is perfect for the occasion.   

and upstairs will be getting some of the larger thick cylinder vases to put the aforementioned beach accessories in (which there wasn’t an exact picture of on the Pottery Barn site, so just an fyi, I got the beach glass and the driftwood, no shells, as it isn’t quite believable to find starfish shells in the midwest, kind of wanted some authenticity to my life…………   If you are still reading this, as I think usually people just have time to look at the pictures,  I just want you to know,  I appreciate you.
