Mesa Historic Home Tour...
This past weekend I attended the 10th Annual Historic Home Tour in Mesa, Arizona. Most of the homes were built in the Bungalow style which originated in California in the 1900's and became popular in Mesa between 1910-1940.
One of my favorite homes on the tour was this Tudor style home built in 1939. I love how the home owner displayed her collection of antique rolling pins and ice cream scoopers. Her paint colors came from Restoration Hardware.
Love the Pantry Door!

Travel Inspired Designs... Union Jack
The United Kingdom flag also known as Union Jack is a hot trend right now in home design. It's a fun way to bring mementos from your travels into you home. If you love the UK a cheap and easy way to bring "the best of the British to you" is to add an accent pillow by Teo Jasmin (below).

Retro Luggage End Tables...
I'm loving these Retro End Tables seen on DIY Maven. They double as an end table and storage for remote controls, magazines and books. This is a really easy project: Just add 4 legs to your vintage suitcase.

TRAVEL INSPIRED DESIGNS...
I was at our crew hotel in LAX and fell in love with these super long picture shelves.
It gave me an idea for a gift for Greg for Christmas and I figured it was time to finally put some pictures from our travels in our home.
I don't think it would be hard to build shelves similar to the ones from my crew hotel but I wasn't in the mood for another project so I went to Ikea and found these cool 6 foot shelves.
Most of these pictures are from an amazing trip to Italy. Some are gallery wrapped photos on canvas. I'm loving my new picture shelves!
