It may sound odd, but one of my favorite things to daydream about is a spacious, perfectly organized walk-in closet. As I am getting older, and my collection of special pieces is growing, I engage in thinking of a future closet as more of a dressing room like in the image above. Though the room depicted is far too luxurious and out of reach (especially with plans to live in New York City), a layout with combinations of drawers and tall mirrored cabinets with a sophisticated sitting arrangement, is one that would be not only an inspiring and beautiful place to get dressed, but can serve as a sort of small museum collection of your sartorial explorations through the years, as well. 

Which rooms do you find yourself daydreaming about most?

Home Improvement

Years ago, when my family lived in our old house, my sister and I had a pink playhouse. While the house itself was every little girls dream, it was an element in the house, a chalkboard wall that my dad painted on, that really made it unique and special. The always-drawing art lover that I was, appreciated the wall as an endless source of creativity and inspiration, and when I came across this dreamy chalkboard wall behind a bathtub I was reminded of the space where so many ideas flowed without too much scrutiny. How dreamy would it be to have a relaxing bath and doodle on the walls? After all, so many of us come up with our best ideas in the shower...why should this be any different?

What do you think of this creative alternative to wallpaper or traditional paint?
