pillow talk

i'm beginning to daydream in detail about my future bedroom in our downtown house for senior year. every time i find something lovely online, it goes in a folder of ideas and inspiration for my first decorating project. these customizable pillows from iomoi, jonathan adler, and karen hilton designs definitely make the cut:
iomoi canvas pillows, $58 for 12x16 and $78 for 16x16.

jonathan adler design your own pillows, choose cotton or hand-loomed wool, $98 for 16x16 and $178 for 24x24.
karen hilton designs 16x16 pillows: $62 for 1st and $66 for union jack.
i'd be happy with any one of these options. what about you? where do you find your pillows? i would love to hear your advice as, like i said, this will be my first real interior design project!

desk du jour

i love the organic arrangement of picture frames and the unlikely combination of chocolate brown, apple green, and red-orange, not to mention the gorgeous hardware on the desk!

on an unrelated note, i would love any suggestions as to how to make pictures bigger in blogger. this picture was uploaded as "large" but it looks anything but. fellow bloggers, any suggestions welcome!

update: i found a bigger image of the same office on houzz. i would still love your suggestions though!

spring things

i walked through le marché aux fleurs (tours is home to the second biggest in france!) on my way back from class today and it made me so excited for april showers and may flowers. only a few more months...
