I know we have all seen Ms. Konig’s apartment everywhere but I love it too and had to keep the photo readily available for my musings. But the thing I am really after are those chairs. I am re-doing my garage sale version (last pic) for my family room and trying to decide on a fabric. I think her fabric choice is glorious but it is way out of my price range (about $180 per yard, I think). Why do I have to like such expensive things (I ask myself this often)? If anyone has seen anything similar do tell! Back to painting!

I’m in love. I wish I could transport that look into my home. It’s so quirky and refreshing at the same time. It’s the kind of space that would kept you house happily house bound.

Very cool! I wish I’ve seen something similar, but I haven’t yet. I can’t wait to see how yours turn out though.
