Old World Gets Me Jazzed

I look through a lot of magazines, read a lot of blogs, and spend way too much time searching, googling, and linking around the internet.  Sometimes hours go by and I come away with nary a pretty room to blog about.

And then sometimes, I strike gold. 

Meet an 1890's restored home on the Greek island, Nisyros:








 
The floor!!


 









I am a little lost here.  What is that -- a mattress??  Um...wtf?























Have you ever seen color so gooooood?  Great art, great furniture, perfect flooring, and gorgeous light fixtures.  Love, love, love.
