Wanna Buy it Wednesday: 2107 Wyoming Avenue, NW, Washington, DC

 2107 Wyoming Avenue is a gorgeous  7-bedroom mansion in the Kalorama neighborhood of Washington. Recently renovated,  the home's original Beaux-Arts architecture- a common style during the early 1900's- has been meticulously maintained. This residence is ideal for entertaining and offers a number of living room and foyer spaces. I love the stark, macabre color palette throughout as well as the beautiful Carrera marble in the bathrooms and fireplace surrounds. The best feature of all, however, is that stunning backyard and terrace!

Flawless

I'm obsessed with this kitchen. Everything about it is perfect to me- the pendant lights, the cabinetry, the tile up to the ceiling. I keep thinking about how one day I hope to incorporate this design in my future home. One day...

Scalamandre


Remember this awesome movie? And remember the awesome wallpaper in the bathroom? Scalamandre wallpaper is still kickin' these days and has even permeated the fashion industry by inspiring accessory patterns. I love this print for a small bathroom or bar area as shown below.

Inspiring Artists

I am constantly on the look out for new artwork that catches my eye. The blogosphere seems to have its favorites, some of which also impresses me. Abstract expressionists Sally Benedict, Michelle Armas, and Luc Leestemaker are a few artists that have been recent topics of discussion. All from different backgrounds and walks of life, they each have mastered color therapy and the eccentric beauty of surrealism.

What Have You Been Up To?

Hi Friends! Forgive me for the lack of posts as of late. School and work have officially taken over my life until next Tuesday. I miss blogging terribly, but am focused on being a good little worker bee for another few days!

I just found this lovely living room image. It brought some sunshine to my day as I hope it does to yours as well! 

See you all soon,
