Sneak Peek at the Outdoor Room

Remember the tale of a girl going to South Africa and the visit inspired space (here)? Well lovelies, here's a preview. It's warm and sunny today, my heart is smiling and I can't wait to finish my outdoor crush. xoxo
ps- visit Nichole at her lovely blog Sparrow's Nest. I need a shoe horn to get my head out the front door today. Thanks doll!
I adore this brass trumpet fixture... it's huge. Above the windows is the loft where boys will eventually be able to have sleepovers. On the hunt for the perfect ladder.
Exciting huh? xo

    That dear head is fabulous!! I saw this huge white longhorn head sculpture in a boutique. I had an immediate I WANT THIS moment. Sticker shock put me in place real quick but it was just stunning.

    Hi Erica
    Thanks for your lovely happy comment - brightened up the day. Love the Chanel tray table. It's always interesting to have a link to someone from another part of the world.
