Famille Summerbelle: Wallpaper & More!
Good morning and happy new week to all of you. I didn't want to get out of bed this morning but after a cup of mate tea and some exercise, I feel a bit more energized! Mondays aren't particularly my favorite day so I have to work extra hard at liking them. So! How was your weekend? Did you have a nice time? I went to a flea market and found a great antique cabinet and some Smiths/Morrissey vinyls. I also relaxed at a favorite pub nearby and had a chat with my publisher in London about projects for next year and beyond. It wasn't the most productive weekend (I didn't lift a finger around the house) but at least I was able to relax and prepare for a new week.
This morning in my inbox was an email with some very sweet wallpapers so I thought I'd share them with you. Have you heard of Famille Summerbelle? They just launched their latest collection mere minutes ago, Morning in Manhattan, which includes new wallpaper in two colorways along with a pretty wooden tray, mug and tea towel. It is their tribute to NYC, "Brownstones, fire escapes, rooftop water towers, bustling streets and an unforgettable skyline". Here is a glimpse of what they carry in their online shop...
I love this quote that I found on their blog, "He adored New York City. He idolized it all out of proportion... No, make that: he - he romanticized it all out of proportion. Yes. To him, no matter what the season was, this was still a town that existed in black and white and pulsated to the great tunes of George Gershwin". - Woody Allen, Manhattan 1979
AND speaking of NYC - I'm posting a very special tour of Lotta Jansdotter's studio shot for decor8 that I'm going to run in a few moments. You won't want to miss it. So inspiring!
