Privacy please!

In our house we have an enclosed porch that is currently being used as a guest room. For the longest time I just had a sheet thrown over the door. Although it gave our guests privacy, it did not look good and did not allow the door to shut all the way. Not particularly ideal, so inspiration hit and I went to work.

Before

A little careful planning with the dog's help.

After
Jinky Wink's very own gift wrap put to another good use!

I need my space!

Within my household we always grumble about our lack of space. Here is a goregous option from a company in California called Modern Cabana. They offer pre-fabricated buildings that are simple, cost-effective, stylish and sustainable.

I can just imagine my new home office in one of these wonderful spaces.

They even offer fun structures for the kids...

...and the dog

My imagination is running amuck!

Room & Board is in Atlanta!

One of my greatest regrets when I left Chicago was leaving behind fabulous stores like Room & Board. I would spend hours walking through the showroom, imaging all the possibilities for my home.

Well after eleven long years I will finally have that opportunity again. Room and Board is opening in Atlanta on May 1st! If you love sophisticated, casual living with a flair for the modern style, then this is the place for you. Here is a sample of some of their wonderful furniture.
