these are times to...

"walk the dog

look twice
blow your budget to furnish the nest

demand excellence

believe in trees

love animals

make room magic

hero worship your muses

send thank yous in writing

know that colours can’t clash

go without your Blackberry and pick some actual blackberries *

hold parties and celebrate

let your home make you happy"

" *we must thank the glorious Jonathon Adler for this pearl – it’s just way too good not to include."

i borrowed the above manifesto from the blog homelove by megan morton to share with you today... i'm always inspired by the way other designers live their lives and so i wanted to pass along her wisdom.  after clicking around on her website i discovered she has also written a book titled home love containing 100 inspiring ideas for creating beautiful rooms... looks like a must read!
