Visiting Ugly Home today I found out they have a new and renovated website, which looks really cool. I also found these really unique Toile de Jouy tiles along with many others in different colors and designs. Visit Ugly Home to see them and make sure to also check their new wall paper selection.

All that glitter

Gold is one of my favorite colors when it comes to accessories. It represents glamor better than any other color. Kelly Wearstler, one of my favorite designers, is perhaps the one who uses it best. The top picture shows the Roller Suite designed by Kelly Wearstler in the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Below are a few cool gold accessories that I find represent glamor perfectly. Clockwise, silk chiffon dress, Jessica McClintock clutch, cocktail plate stand, artichoke flower shaker, Betsey Johnson necklace, solid gold pen set, Kaleidoscope and alma fortune cup and saucer.
Sea Grass/Grasscloth Wallpaper

Naturally textured wallpaper such as Sea Grass or Grass Cloth, made from plant fibers can add glamor, texture and warmth to a space. It’s also a perfect way to hide those tedious wall imperfections. The fact that there is no pattern to be matched makes installation so much easier. I personally love it in a tropical environment (top second picture). Hang some photos or art and you’ll have a very cozy, warm space (top 1st picture). Below are a few more pictures showing different ways in which natural textured wallpaper can be used.
Below are some Natural Texture Wallpaper resources.

Magnificent Organic Wedding Décor
I had posted about Wendell T. Webber photographs before, but I wanted to share with you this stunning and organic wedding décor. I love the clean and of course, natural ambiance. Especially the top left picture; with all those trees lined. Wouldn’t it be great if this wedding took place in the Fall instead. Imagine the beauty of all the colorful Autumn leaves resting on the grass… Astonishing, I believe.
