I’ve Been Pinnin’!

So it’s true what they say…Pinterest is addictive!

I’m sort of late to the party, but better late than never.

Follow me.  I’ll follow you. Bada-bing. Bada-boom.

Happy Weekend…Your Life in COLOR!

Have a fun and productive weekend!

Night Night…Sleep Tight- Colorful Duvets and Quilts

Would you believe that Miss Color Vision herself has a white duvet cover?!  Yep!  It’s true.  There’s something about all white bedding that I really like.

But….if I WERE in the market for a colorful duvet or quilt these would catch my eye.

What’s on your bed?

Lofts, Lofts and more Lofts!

I was sold the moment I knew what a loft was.

So cool, artsy and modern!  High ceilings, exposed duct work, brick walls; I love it all.

I like how light and airy this one feels.

Notice the stone in this place

How would you like to wait for breakfast here?

I like the contrasting black staircase.

Great big windows!

I used to live in a loft and I loved it!  I should dig up some pictures and share with you guys.  That was almost 10 years ago!  I often drive by my old digs and reminisce about my life back then.  So carefree.  Those were the days…before home ownership and maintenance! You home owners know what I mean ; )

Home Tour: Designer Lotta Anderson

I LOVE looking at home tours online.  I mean how else can you instantly see amazing homes throughout the country? World for that matter!

I came across Lotta’s Brooklyn home on marthastewart.com.

I love her place.

The color palette is so bright and cheery.

Lotta’s own textile design used to make this door stop.  Cute!

Lotta in her studio/office.

Lotta with her husband, Nick.

Notice the color coordination of the books on the shelves in the background?

Something to think about as you’re racking and stacking your favorites.

Cute place, Lotta!

Colorful Trend- Painted Stairs

Brave enough to paint your stairs?

This is actually 6 rugs that were sewn together. I love this, especially, with the white walls and light floor.  Fun!

See more at housetohome.com

I found these over at Apartment Therapy.   I can’t get enough of these!

“Taking the stairs has never been so fun…until now” ; )

Be COLORful!

In the meantime, I’m still “Gone Painting“. I CANNOT wait to reveal my latest girl! I’m 1/8 of the way done. *sigh* I need a snow day, several cups of joe and beats suitable for painting…or a good movie…(that I’ve seen before lol so I can stay focused).  I like painting to both…ok, enough rambling.  You guys will be the first to know when I finish! Until then, enjoy these posts :)

Kolor Vision’s Kids Part 2

I caught this Kolor Vision Kid yesterday hanging out in her pjs!

She’s also wearing her Christmas gift that I finally delivered; fun COLORful plastic beads that you can make into necklaces, bracelets, rings….you name it!

We had a ball making these.  Check out the colors on this kid!

Ok, back to painting!

Color Watch: White as Snow

Well it’s January 12th and not a snow flake on the ground in Detroit…Yet!  But of course that can all change in a matter of moments.

While I patiently wait for the powdery white goodness to fall I’m indulging in these fab snow inspired spaces.  White is so classic…so chic…so… clean lol

I’m a self-proclaimed color lover (of course)  but I’m so loving these!  So fresh!

Whatcha think…too bland or just your style?
