Friday, July 1, 2011 at 9:52AM
i like this color palette.
but i wouldn't have chosen rust wall to wall carpet.
and i do enjoy the thought that with a carpenter family member (dad-jesus) that sofa thing could happen.
i even think i could upholster it myself.
but who am i kidding?
i can't even finish painting doors.
i am a project failure these days.
i am mesmerized by this wall color.
also this room belongs to the guy who played rocky in rocky horror..
this guy:
peter hinwood aka rocky aka antiques dealer and house owner with pretty blue walls and an awesome collection of stuff i would steal.
there's more...
delightful.
i die for this pool.
i die for this everything.
'cept those chairs.
gridbutt.
i really love that wallpaper.
who can tell me what it is?
so moody and stuff.
hranowsky owns me.
do any of you have a giant canopy full of beautiful expensive fabric?
do you not give a shit about dust?
watermelon and strawberry vodka mojitos: recipe
this pleases me on so many levels.
yes.
i am a sushi eating champion.
known all over the world as "the velvet buzzsaw".
cabinet color + brass pulls + marble slab.
and agas remind me of my mom and i love my mom.
have a great weekend.
i'm gonna eat fried chicken probably.

Hi Jenny,
That wallpaper is De Gournay. Here's the link: http://lookbook.elledecor.com/Foyer-Traditional-Youthful-Glamour-in-New-York-City/id6420
Love your posts!
hahaha gridbutt. good call.
i die for that living room with the cat pillows. i have been obsessing over a well worn faded rug like that. i want one that had been sufficiently trampled.
My mom had wall to wall rust colored carpet installed throughout our entire 1900s house... it was kinda great.
Yes to all of it! Especially, that beautiful wall color that seems to be the perfect backdrop for rocky's wares and not to mention matches his banana hammock. Also, I can imagine myself passed out on that sofa bed awesomeness covered in chocolate with an empty champagne bottle rolling out of my hand. Hope your mama's doing ok! Have a great weekend!!
I like all of these pictures a lot..and I always enjoy your color choices...BUT what the fuck is a velvet buzz saw? Can you explain that to my puny brain please cause I don't get it. Maybe I can't walk and chew gum at the same time
i'm gonna eat a lot of hotdogs.
Haha gridbutt.
Jenny chicken fried - what a great collection of images for my tired friday eyes to feast upon! the LR with the huge paneled screen = oval mirror is great, save for the kitty cat elements. the pillows, I mean. not the painting to the right of said mirror, which looks alot like your nicholas, doncha think?
oh, the old kitchen which reminds you of mother mfamb is killing me. want to go there and make porridge whilst wearing a nubby old sweater with elbow patches.
And, I just decided I'm gonna fly to atl and help you paint those doors. nothing like a bossy stranger arriving on your doorstep to re-kickstart a project. really, I'll bring champagne (which I'll drink while you do those crazy T. Anderson shenanigans).

That augergine (I sort of hate that word, but don't know what color to call it? merlot? gross.) Anyways, that room caught me by surprise. Love the potted plant with same no-name-available purple/red.
And let's discuss that pool. Chairs are so sad. But pool is so good I accept it all.
First image color palette is swoonable. hahaha swoon and aubergine.
happy 4th. have mulitples of the mojito. it always makes long weekends better. and everything else in life too.
love it all. have a wonderful fried chicken eatin' weekend. xo
Loving Rocky Horror dude's tile collection.
rocky horror picture show... thanks for the memories and have a great 4th!
Horning after all those rugs
Gorgeous, all of them, but I can't keep my eyes off the first one rust carpet and all. Have a happy weekend! XO
That blue de Gournay wallpaper is just too good- would also die a happy lady if that was my pool- perfection!
that room with the deep raspberry walls pleases me on many levels too.
have a great 4th of july weekend.
Wow, Jenny, epic round-up of rooms! I can not believe those are Rocky Horror's rooms! That's crazy and the rooms are crazy good...man, that is an estate sale I would love to attend. I also love that purple, pink, raspberry space. In any other context I think I would hate that wall color, but it is so intriguing here and works so well with the furnishings. Really beautiful.
i don't know how you find such amazingly pretty things for us to drool over. wish i had the dough to tap into the idea store in your brain... my house needs so much help! love the rust chaise with the blue wallpaper, the pool, rocky's house. fabulous! those mojitos are in my near future.
yesyesyes! I'll have what mfamb's having. YES!!! Love the color palate too; your muted colors are always my fave, too. :) I want mojitos! immeds! witchuuuu. whilst floating our asses in that pool. DAMN. Also: velvet buzzsaw = probably the best nickname in the history of EVER. Honest. So good. I love you. happy 4th.
fun post. summery bits. the guy in the powder blue undies scares me.
Whenever I get down to Atlanta I'm going to challenge you to a sushi eating contest. My champion name is "pink Sushi." In your face.
