it's moving week... sad face

I heart this little side table from Bungalow 5 and would love to use it in my new bedroom if I could afford it. I'm hoping I can create a similar look using something I already have, or a piece from Ikea, updated with some new, sassy hardware (if you haven't checked out Ikea Hackers you should, it's amazing how crafty people are!). Busy organizing and packing - I'll be back next week when it's all over.

portfolio peek {thom filicia}

I was flipping through old Domino's this weekend and stopped short (again) at Thom Filicia's lakeside cabin featured in the August 2008 issue (kitchen image below). Thom is highly recognized for his time spent on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy as well as for his residential projects and the multiple W hotels he has designed (last image below). His home collection is pretty fab - I'm especially loving his new indoor rugs. Here's a quick peek at some images from his portfolio:
