Why hello you absolutely-beautifully-cute-little-signage that I need to order ASAP. You’re so cute and perfect and I can’t wait to meet you in person.

Thank the Lord I stopped to visit Decor8 otherwise I may have passed up the work of William Doham.

I think this would fit perfectly in my entry. I won’t have to greet my guests ever again. A slight look to the left and my wall will say it for me. Kidding, kidding. No, but seriously, this thing makes me wanna jump for joy. I’ve been having decorator’s block and haven’t been able to decide what the heck to hang in my entry. I want something that exhibits personality and… ding, ding, ding I think I hit the jackpot.

William Doham has other words of expression just in case hello isn’t what you’re looking for, so check out his stuff here.

And here’s another super cute find from Home Decorators Collection. Hoo would’ve thought they’d actually have some cute things.

Or what about this adorable heart rug from Pier One. Someone has to have a little girl out there. Buy this for her, please.

I first fell in love with turquoise while swooning over Cameron Diaz’s turquoise ring* in The Sweetest Thing. Though I didn’t love the movie so much, I was determined to find a turquoise ring like the one she wore throughout most of the movie. I found a similar one at a vintage shop but lost it almost as soon as I bought it. I was heartbroken and never looked at turquoise the same.

Then, suddenly, I saw it in a completely different light. I saw it in fabric, in kitchens, on bedding, plates, sofas, chairs, walls. My love for turquoise was requited. Four years passed and in December of ’09  Pantone selected it as color of the year for 2010.  I couldn’t help but toot my own horn for loving this color before finding out the news. Nothing like some reaffirmation.

Some inspiring applications of the hue.

Even in a country house, this color looks hip.

I’ve loved this room for a long time now. Brown, pink and turquoise – oh so lovely.

You can’t miss with yellow bamboo Chippendale chairs, chevron pattern rug and turquoise drapes.

I know a certain someone with a turquoise door.
