I have a type, and that type is Organic Modern.

I just came across this website: http://www.organicmodernism.com/index.php 

Here are some cool pieces...

my style interior design

 



 

Being the nature loving hippy real estate interior design character that I am, I absolutely love these spaces. I love the blend of natural wood, classical structure and modern industrial accessories to really pull a home together. Maybe it's ablend of my personalities, maybe it's just a unique fresh feel.

 

Either way, these spaces get me excited...

 

 

 

extenz....what?

My uncle recently sent me a text saying, "I'm getting extenzo done to my ceiling tomorrow"

My first thought was, "..."

Then he sent me to the website www.Extenzo.ca

Wow , these ceilings resemble the concrete with polished lacquer flooring in the new loft style condos around town. Apparently, known to europeans (obviously), this extenzo ceiling has just recently made it's appeal to North American in 2008. It is currently being fabricated in Quebec, but I think this minor change to your oldschool stubble or flat white ceiling just makes a heck of a difference.

I am not aware of waht the pricing is on this product. As soon as I find out, I'll let ya know.

spring cleaning closet declutter

We've all been there... winter passes, spring comes around and it's time to go find our favourite pair of Michael Kors flats from the closet. But just wait a second, how do I get passed the snowboards, the winter coats, the useless empty boxes that are too big to throw in the small recycling bin so I hold on until "someday" I'll bring them to the BIG recycling bin outside.

Here we are. Spring cleaning. Time to declutter. Where to start...

Here is my how to with some help from Oprah's O-mag home section.

 The Housewide Shoe and Clothing Purge.

1. Remove all shoes from your closets and place in your hallway. Feel free to group shoes by sandals,flipflops,runners, etc

2. Any shoes that no longer fit, you do not like, or you haven't worn in the most recent season that the shoe applies will be put into a donation bin. If they are not in good condition you are to purge them.

3. You must donate at least ONE pair from each section : flip flop, sandals, heels, boots.

4. Repeat 1-3 for clothing.
