And speaking of things I love....

I heart Kelly Wearstler...in a large way.

I also enjoy her house.

More specifically, this foyer...


The good news is that it's mine.

Well not exactly, but thanks to the genius that is Meredith Heron, a version of this foyer bliss will be gracing my kitchen any day now.

See...


Yup...that's painted silk people.

And as we speak, it's being whipped up into curtains for my kitchen.

Meredith made them.

Can you believe this?

I can't...well actually I can.

As I said, she's kind of brill.

You can read more about how she worked this magic over at Sashay.

Oh and just so you know for absolutely...my kitchen is officially being published!!!!

Cue my back flips/happy dances.

Project Kitchen Gorgeous is coming soon to an amazing magazine near you.

Stay tuned.

And stay safe.

Happy Spooky Day!
