I must admit that I had a rough time this week coming up with my top 5. I feel like I waded through a lot of “stuff” to find things that I really love and was truly inspired by. Great design…sometimes hard to come by! So here are my top picks for the week! I hope they inspire you! Have a great weekend and be sure to check by soon! I will be posting my new, on-a-budget office-in-a-tiny-space! (yes, my bedroom).

As always, click on the item to go find it. Trying to make it easy for you:).

My first is a bit off the beaten track. I am in love with mixing really decorative things with super modern (as you will soon see). So my first is very decorative…a doorbell from Restoration Hardware. Pretty, huh?

I apologize in advance because my next is a room…but I couldn’t help myself! It was over at Domino Magazine and I believe it was featured in one of their earlier issues. It’s an office! Can you believe it? Oh, I’m in love, I’m in love!

I’ve been lusting over this acrylic coffee table for, umm, 6 years? I first saw a version of it in a magazine I bought in South Africa when Josh and I did a study abroad in Mozambique. I’ve been smitten ever since (still have the magazine). So here’s the cb2 version…the Peekaboo table. You say it isn’t practical, the kids will get finger prints all over it…I know, I know. I just can’t help it! It’s my eye candy. Perhaps if I actually got it into the house I could dislike it. When I was in San Francisco visiting Jen, we went into a DWR, and I FINALLY sat in a Bertoia chair. My, how I love those chairs. But to no avail…I sat in one, and it was so UNCOMFORTABLE!!!! Imagine my designerly sadness! I guess, the chocolate Bertoia at Sprinkles was comfy…

But I digress…gorgeous coffee table. Me wants.

Speaking of DWR, I have a pick from them this week. I’m sort of obsessed with numbers right now (once again, wait until you see my mini office). So my pick from them is:

And the finale of the week is a little goodie from Vinyal Wall Art. Aren’t these bird cages divine? Yes, they are those plastic “stickers” for the wall (you know what I’m talking about! And if you don’t go visit the site because you are missing out!) I love the idea of Vinyl Wall Art…easy art! This site has SO many cute designs!
