Montage: Twin Beds

As we head into summer, I’ve been making plans with friends to visit me on the Cape. I’ll be out there full time starting mid-June , and I’ll no doubt be craving company. (On the bright side, I’ll have plenty of time to blog.) In any case, summer means summer houses, which means visitors, which means guest rooms. Here is a collection of rooms outfitted with two beds. Some are shared kids’ rooms, but most are spaces appropriate for grown ups, and plenty lovely enough to consider spending the night.

Montage: For the Birds

Yesterday’s spring preview was heavenly. The boys were ecstatic to be at the playground; they ran all the way. Newbury Street showed signs of life, with bare-legged beauties toting shopping bags. It’s back to being chilly today, so I thought a sampling of bird-filled rooms could keep us whistling.

Get the Look: Grey + Green Wallpapers

Here are samples of the grey and green wallpapers I am considering for the wall behind my bed. There is not much wall space, so it needs to be a small scale pattern. The room is large, but dark… I should really take a picture of the dreary room and post it. Maybe later. The headboard is a crisp white cotton duck. And I want to paint the walls green. Let’s not get into the furniture now. Would love opinions, especially from the design types out there. Here are the swatches (I’ll add the sources tomorrow). And, dear husband, should you see this, please let me know what you thinks via a post. (So much more civilized than face-to-face combat, don’t you think?)
