I love this: Black King Edison pendant lamp

I Love This

Really, how can you not love this? It's Mineheart's Black King Edison pendant lamp, designed by Young & Battaglia. You aren't imagining things -- that's a tiny LED chandelier inside a large Edison light bulb. The bulb is 8.27" tall x 5.9" wide, and the fixture comes with a 6-foot cable and a ceiling medallion. If your style leans toward the whimsical and quirky, the King Edison is calling your name!

Inspired by a pic: The Purple Crocus Dining Room

Concept Boards Pic Inspired
As I described last week, I like to find a photo and try to come up with furnishings and decor inspired by the image. Spring is drawing near -- the daffodils are already up in my yard in Georgia! So this week's random photo of random things is "Crocus," by Franklin Hunter, via Creative Commons/Flickr. Let's see what inspiration I can get from this one!

This time, I'm furnishing a dining room. The resulting items are a bit glam, a bit 70s, a bit mid-century... and a lot of spring color!

I Love This: Juku pendant lamp

I Love This Products

(Disclaimer: this post contains affiliate links.)

I stumbled on this Juku Small Pendant lamp by Tov at Modtempo last night, and I must say I am a big fan, particularly if your style is Scandinavian Modern. This is a great example of "blush as a neutral," because it would honestly fit in a ton of color schemes. Modtempo's website shows it in a Glam context, with its larger cousin, the Juku Large Pendant, which is pretty cool itself. I like the smaller one better, though, with the majority of the shade being blush and not grey.

The two of the pendants hanging side-by-side like that is a great look. I approve -- and they aren't even outrageously expensive, at $65 (small) and $95 (large).

Concept Boards Pic-inspired
Design inspiration can come from many places. I like to use photos, sometimes. I don't mean photos of great interior design, though of course, that's inspiring too. No, I mean random photos of random things. I find a photo and try to come up with furnishings and decor inspired by the image. Here's one: "Vespa s50," by dawarwickphotography, via Creative Commons/Flickr.

I liked the colors -- blue, cream, orange, and black -- and thought they'd make a fun design exercise. The blue is basically Classic Blue (Pantone's 2020 color of the year). Here's the resulting concept board, with sources following:

February 2020 mood board

Color Moodboards

Perhaps it's obvious to use pink and red in a February mood board, but how about that green? Here in Georgia, we've had unseasonably warm weather recently, and this green is to show how close we are to spring. Green is a great foil to pink (and to purple!)

Here are a few links to where you can buy some of the items from the mood board, so you can put some of this February mood into your life! (I may receive affiliate payments from these links.)
