ARE YOU CLEANING and sorting and organising? We are. In fact, it's all we've been doing for the past month and a week. This year, more than other new years, seems to bring out that desire to clear out and begin again. There are too many dongles for the too many tablets and phones and desktop screens, and books and magazines and old newspapers threaten to overtake wicker baskets and racks while framed artwork and photos lean against walls and remain unhung.
We happened upon the lovely home office of Atlanta-based blogger Kristin Jackson quite by accident, and immediately fell in love with all of the wonderful details in the room: the architectural elements and lucite, the skirted table and leopard print. But by far our favourite part was what we thought were wood built-in shelving that turned out to be freestanding bourbon cabinets.
IT WAS THE PHOTO, above, of the Calacatta Monet marble counter and the antique lamp with wicker shade that stopped me in my tracks while scrolling through Instagram this morning.
{two lovely things:} wood & metal along a wall in a sunny room for favourite past issues, and custom built-ins...
