Also, the new cushions for the sofa arrived. I got them from Ballard Designs and I'm happy to report that the quality is great...they are super comfy too. I love the white cording and think the black will look much better than paw-print-covered ivory :)
Finally, I got the cute little palm tree for the corner. I thought the area could use a little more green. Hopefully I can keep it alive!
As usual, the to-do list for the space is ongoing. Besides getting an old chalkboard for the wall behind the sofa, I still want to install a beadboard ceiling and paint it blue. I found this tutorial, so my husband and I might attempt the project on our own. I'm also considering an outdoor rug...what do you think?
This patio looks so cozy!Love the cushions and the curtains! I think an outdoor rug would look great..something soft under the feet!
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get those pillows??
ReplyDeleteOutdoor rugs seem really silly, and then you get one and wonder what took so long! Softness underfoot outside is a luxury.
ReplyDeleteLove it! So lovely and inviting... the lamp works perfectly-
ReplyDeleteYour space looks great. I love the pendant light and drapes.
ReplyDeleteYes to all of the above! Blue beadboard ceiling, rug, and chalkboard! All excellent ideas!

Looking good. How do you like the outdoor curtains?
ReplyDeleteit looks fantastic...and yes, i'd vote for an outdoor rug. love a good rug ;-)
ReplyDeletei'm seriously coveting your pool...just sayin.
GORGEOUSSSSSS!
ReplyDeleteIt's looking great! You probably didn't see it, but Visual Vamp left a comment on my Greek Key post right after you. She said they have 5' x 8' outdoor Greek key rugs for $75 at Perch in New Orleans. I didn't find them on the website, but I'm sure you can call and ask.
ReplyDeleteYou can see it here in the room with the green sofa, orange/pink pillows, and turquoise chandelier: http://www.paloma81.blogspot.com/search?q=perch
Anon - the pillows are from Williams-Sonoma Home. Unfortunately I bought them last summer so they are no longer available. They have some cute ones in a yellow colorway that are a similar trellis pattern. They are on sale too! http://www.wshome.com/products/p9150/index.cfm?pkey=cdecorative-pillows-throw-blanket
ReplyDeletePaloma - Thanks for the heads up on the Greek key rug at Perch! Just called them and they emailed the rug info/photo. It looks similar to the rug in our study, which I love. The added bonus with the Perch version is that it's reversible...sounds like a winner to me!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks beautiful as usual!! Love the new pendant light.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you buy the pendant light over your kitchen sink? Love it!!!
The patio looks great! The drapes, pillows, and the pendant are fab.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking to find a great, comfortable, investment-purchase couch. What stores in Dallas or online would you recommend for quality and comfort for the long haul?
