Laura Slater makes screen printed textiles in the most sublime colors and patterns. I love all the applications her fabrics get used for and I covet those chairs!

White Cube

I have to admit: I have never, ever in my life wanted white walls. So it's a little weird to be completely obsessed with white right now. The Mr. and I currently live in a very brown house; it's all brown floors, brown stairs, brown couch (what? I bought it before we moved!) and white walls seem like the only thing to combat the sea of brown. Not taupe, eggshell, cream, just white white white. I've been pinning and saving any inspiration I can find with white walls. Here are a few favorites below...

Oh, and the color we picked? Snowbound by Sherwin Williams. Just a teensy bit creamier than pure white.

I've been in a little of a when-the-heck-is-winter-going-to-end funk this week. What's better than a little pop of neon in a world full of neutrals?

I'm so obsessed with vintage Kantha quilts right now. If I wish for one enough, do you think it will just magically appear on my bed?
