Just Loving It...............

Well Well Well...
I have to say I am oh so IMPRESSED with Pottery Barn Spring Catalog
I have to say this is the MOST excited I have been in a long time with Pottery Barn.
Finally they are doing bright and bold! Not BLAH and BORING
The last few years have been so BLAH with Pottery Barn and today I got my new catalog and I am just loving everything in Pottery Barn!
So with that said I am feeling oh so Martha Stewart/Domino Magazine and thought I would highlight some of my favorites!
THANK YOU POTTERY BARN FOR BRINGING LIFE BACK TO THE MAGAZINE AND STORE!

Love the Black Furniture with the patterned rug and soft yellow walls!!! Great Look for a Breakfast Room! Oh So Bright & Cheery....Reminds me of a cottage somewhere on the east coast...
Can I just say I LOVE THESE CHAIRS... I Don't know if I would be that courageous to do all different chairs however, I love this idea of combining color at the table! It Brings some life to blah & boring brown table...however...if you want to be a little less daring try some fun cushions in different patterns. This is a great way to bring some life to the table and kick it up a notch without pushing the envelope to far and crazy!
I love this living room! I want a white sofa so BAD!!! I love white/off white because there is so much you can do with it. If you get bored with it accent with a different color for every season!! Paint the wall...the sky is the limit! My mother tells me I cannot have a white sofa...hmmm we will have to wait and see! Some day!!!
Pattern*Pattern*Patterns....Patterns and Prints are in! Accent*Accent*Accent your room with a fun and funky chair....Designer Nate says you should have one chair in every room that doesn't match....it is your "conversation piece" I agree...Test the limits of design...reach out there and do something different...Show your personality!!! I DARE YOU!
Loving this White Sofa with Storage! How great is this for the "smaller" space. This would be a great piece for the Beach House....How fun...Love the Sisal Rug too! Again...Love the Bright Color walls! I am not a fan of the Aztec Pillows I would go with a Paisley or Toile! Toile is my favorite in any color!
Ok...So My "Dream Office" Love this! I love the Green Wall...It is such a great color with White!
Loving Light Pastels in the Bathroom.I am a huge fan of a pale green in the bathroom. I think pastels are great for a bathroom because when I think of bathroom I think Clean...so crisp clean colors are so soothing in the bathroom! I love having a residential piece of furniture in the bathroom instead of your "typical" bathroom cabinets! I love this piece above. I am just loving the slate tile floors as well. HEAT THEM! Your bare feet will love heated tile floors!!!
COLOR* COLOR*COLOR...How fun are these lamps...Why don't you try hanging a lamp from the ceiling! How cute would that be? Over your bath tub? Maybe even a chandelier? Or why don't you hang lamps above the bar in your kitchen? Who says you have to have the typical halogeon lights dangling down? Two lamps would be fun? Don't you think???
The Bedroom....In My Opinion a bedroom should change with the seasons! I have to say as the weather gets nicer and the sun comes out I search for bedding that is bright and cheery. As the fall and winter months come I look to colors that are warm and comforting. I think every bedroom should have at least 2 different feels....one for Spring and Summer and then one for Fall & Winter! Keep your walls simple and your drapes neutral so you don't have to change those!! I love these two bedrooms!
Again...I love all the different patterns! They work so well together!
I have to say that I love a clean, crisp, freshly ironed, 800 thread count, WHITE sheets...
There is something about white sheets! They are so clean looking and will go with any bedding!
Well...I hope you enjoyed my Spring Designs....I want to run out and buy a bunch of stuff and just start decorating....
Thank You Pottery Barn for Such A Great Catalog!
Happy Decorating!

Love it! I'm just getting ready to re-cover the sofa and my two new chairs (from my aunts house) in the front room and I am so excited!! Out with the old...well, kind of.

Okay, so funny you should post this I was looking at the catalog the other night and was thinking the same thing. Just have to tell you...last year when they came out with the Benjamin Moore paints I painted my dinning room that green color! I absolutely love it!! It’s my favorite room. ( I would totally recommend that color) Also I have several pieces of their black furniture including my dinning room set, again love it, hate dusting it, but love the look. That darn black shows everything. Not that I would trade the furniture for anything. Just thought I would share! lol What is it about this time of year? It makes me want to redecorate my entire house

One more thing...go for the sofa!!! I have a light Khaki sofa and it’s been the best purchase for me. I think you and I are a lot alike when it comes to decorating. It’s so versatile. You can change the pillows with your mood and it’s a whole different look! I have always wanted white...don't think it would work with kids, but Khaki has been great!!
