Some Things are Just Too Cool

The beauty above is the Marea Ceiling Fan
from YLighting and if it were any hotter, it’d have to change it’s name to Maggie Q.
From Y Lighting:
The Marea by Fanimation provides functional art on your ceiling! After you’ve invested in the perfect furnishings for your contemporary or transitional-style home, this ultra-modern ceiling fan adds the crowning touch.
Circulating air with its distinctive, single amber frosted blade, the Oil Rubbed Bronze finish coordinates beautifully with similar finishes in the house.

The 42-inch blade sweep is ideal for bedrooms, living spaces, and sunrooms. Included two sets of double (12″ and 36″) downrods.

This artsy, handsome, and deliciously original ceiling fan is for the sophisticated office – or the one that puts on a killer facade. Click through the link for a closer look. The ceiling fan, not Maggie Q.

If you haven’t seen Maggie Q’s newest movie, Priest, yet, why not? Maggie kicks ass. The only three words you need to know. And you’re welcome for the review.

I love this essey Bin Bin so much I can barely even stand to look at it. It’s from Huset-Shop.com and it’s destined to find its way into my life.
From the Website:
A wastebasket with an identity all its own; Bin Bin looks exactly like the contents it is designed to contain, crushed paper. The product is made of hard polyethylene. Dimensions: 12″ (31cm) x 13″ (33cm). Comes in Mat White, Black and Red
I’ll take one in each color, thank you very much. It’s love!

I don’t mind if I do. We’ve been sort of remodeling the kitchen this week. It seems that my kitchen appliances, dishes, and what-nots have overtaken the allotted cabinet and shelf space – necessitating an expansion and reorganization plan.
It seems like something straight out of I Love Lucy but as I walk through the rest of the house, now I’m thinking, “Oh, this needs to be done in this room… such and such would be gorgeous in here…“ That sort of thing. I’m actually even writing things down, with the optimistic intention of crossing things off as they’re accomplished.
Funny, as I’m sitting here kind of straining my eyes, I think I’m going to move floor lamp by my computer desk to the top of the list!
Speaking of floor lamps, I don’t know which room I’d grace with it – but I couldn’t possibly love this Hunter / Kenroy Tundra Floor Fountain
any more. It’s beyond gorgeous. The aqua glass, the light, the Glass Stones (which are included, by the way)… it just screams relaxation and elegance.
This beautiful floor fountain is from one of the premiere online lighting store, Lighting By Gregory. When I saw the price, I was pleasantly surprised – I honestly thought it’d be a lot more.
