Just Another Thing To Add

I was on the hunt for more information on this vacant latch I saw in this ad...
Which brought me to the Ginger's website. No luck on said latch but I did find many other pieces of hardware which I will be adding to my "one day house" list...
Man their door knobs are pretty. Our current door knobs are....well....heinous (to match our cheap, cheap interior doors). One day when I have pretty interior doors something like one of these will be adorning them.
There is something I really like about oval door knobs, I think they fit my hand better...
The back behind these knobs I just love. My sister in law moved into a house with similar hardware and was going to get rid of all of them and told her NOOOOOOO!!!
Have I mentioned on here that I want a lion door knocker? E.H. the search continues!
I won't even get started today on my "one day" shower but I will tell you something like this will be part of it...
or this...
and definitely this...

My Favorite Paint & Opinions Needed

I can already tell this is going to be a random post...I get asked a lot about paint colors and I plan on doing a "favorite colors" post with several of my favorites. However, there is one color that I recommend over and over (and I try not to). It is Restoration Hardware's Silver Sage. Sometimes it is blue, sometimes it is green, sometimes gray. I have it in my office but that is such a disaster area right now I can't show a picture.
Anyhoo, the reason I am mentioning this is because when I would recommend it to clients I would tell them to go to the store to look at on the walls, you could see it in all different lights. Then one day recently a fabulous client called me and said, "Have you seen the wall color in RH?!?!?!?" Since she knows me so well she knew I would be as obsessed as she was. She was correct...I believe it is from the Slate collection, but I will confirm.... It is so pretty.
I know you are surprised that a gray shade isn't my #1 favorite paint color. So moving right along, I do not have my new logo yet and I am sure things will change when I do get it but for now I need some opinions. Do you like the gray background better....
or do you prefer white? And what about grid lines like below? Too much? Helpful to the eye?
I think there is something to be said for both, I would love to hear what you think.
Thanks Laurie for the paint tip!!!!

Restoration Reclaimed

A friend of mine who works at Restoration Hardware was telling me about their new line of reclaimed items. I hadn't seen any of them but then I came across this ad.So I went onto their website to get more information on the piece....The description is as this:

Furniture Factory Cart

$910

• An early 1900s industrial original
• Made and refurbished in the USA
• Once used to transport furniture, fabric and supplies across the factory floor
• Now, carefully restored by a local craftsman, this rustic cart is a one-of-a-kind statement piece for use as a coffee table or accent
• Made of North American solid white oak
• Tops have been cleaned and oiled but still bear the marks of its history and may have nicks and imperfections
• Original cast iron wheels, bolts and plates
• Size is approximate; no two are exactly alike
• Quantities are limited
• Dimensions (approximate): 28"W x 53"L x 16"H

Pretty Neat.
