I’m sitting here at my kitchen table with a SUPER STRONG cup of coffee trying to revive myself from one of those sleepless nights with a sick kid and barking dogs, yet the day still starts at 6am. But instead of dwelling on my lack of sleep (it’s Friday after all tomorrow), I want to finish this post on one of my ultimate design inspirations. The magnificent peacock. Looking at a peacock spread it’s wings is truly one of nature’s wonders. The color combination is awe inspiring!! I think perhaps the best interiors and colors are all stolen directly from animals and nature?
KAPOW!!
Love this beautiful peacock pillow. (www.livelikeyou.com)

I could go on and on and add tons more inspiration but a busy day awaits.
I wanted to let you all know the missing blog posts are back. (yeah!) We were able to retrieve them via google cache, but unfortunately I lost all your lovely comments, which are always so much fun to read.
Have a great day!
Love all these images….anything found in nature is a gorgeous color combination, in my opinion. I did an outfit inspiration around the peacock awhile ago: http://hisugarplum.blogspot.com/2010/09/outfit-in…
Hope your coffee kicks in and your day perks up…and your boy feels better!
Love your peacock post Cassie-looks great as an outfit as well!!
Great images…..great inspiration for sure, beautiful creature (well maybe not the photo where he looks mean) 🙂 The colors are exquisite and with so much life to them, how could you not be inspired? I'm loving the Trina Turk fabric.
May you get all the rest your body needs this weekend.

wonderful images! I've been meaning to paint a large peacock feather for some time now. It's on the to-do list for this spring! Wouldn't it be lovely to have in a room?
Yes! paint it!
Steal away! The peacock pattern is so classy and timeless. In my early blog days I wrote a post about this chic stylist who put feathers in glass vases. I dug it up for you. Isn't it a great idea! I actually ordered the feathers on E-bay but I have not gotten around to find vases yet…

Hope the household is feeling better soon.
En stor kram till dig.
P.S Jag har inte gloemt bort dig! Jag saetter ihop en liten trudelutt under helgen. Ok?
Jattebra! Can't believe how amazing the peacock feather looks in a glass vase!
Such a fun post! Love all the gorgeous colors and images.
Love the wow factor in this post and the colour scheme is awesome! Sorry about the lack of sleep though( i can so relate). I hope your little one feels better soon and thank goodness tomorrow is Friday! XX
