A light-filled portfolio: Swedish interior stylist Sasa Antic

I have a great find for you this afternoon! It's gloomy outside over the Hudson River, but boy is it bright and beautiful in these photos - and the architectural details in some of these homes are to die for!


Adorable and practical


love this...





I'm liking the stacked magazine look - and I might have to refer to it as my collection has multiplied. I'd just stick a plush shag rug there to lay on while browsing through them.

Look! This person's DVDs are out in the open *gasp*

My favorite inspiring interiors from my favorite blogs

It was other design blogs that inspired me to start a blog, but I've found that it keeps me so busy that I rarely have the time to visit the people who inspired me to do this in the first place. So, I hope to make these "favorite inspiring interiors from my favorite blogs," a monthly or weekly post to see what my friends are up to, and to share them with you guys!

Happy Birthday Decorology - The best of it's first year

I can't believe it's been a year since I started Decorology! Aside from searching for and collecting beautiful interiors, the best aspect of Decorology - hands-down - is the community! You guys are awesome and it wouldn't be what it is without you! Not only do you encourage me to continue, even when I feel like I've seen every picture before and can't come up with anything new, but you've also been immensely supportive through all the tragedies that befell my family this year. I can't wait for the upcoming year on Decorology!

Vintage wine jug sourcing update

Ask and you shall receive! You guys really pulled through for me on helping to figure out what the bottles in the below image are called, and where they can be found! Thank you so much!

The original post




hayniedi says:

"check out commercial suppliers and home brewery suppliers. They have lots of sizes and colors at very affordable prices which allows you to recreate the look on a budget. No one will know!"


Great tip!

Here's just two such sites:

Home Brew it

Wine Guy Supply

"...as for these jugs, they are also known as demijohns or carboys, but i had been on a hunt for the last month to find ones that are more budget friendly and finally found a few. look no further than your neighborhood pier 1, marshalls, tj maxx, or ross dress for less for all colors & sizes! i bought a taller light blue one at pier 1 last month on sale for $29!"

Anne at the City Sage says:
"For a similar but slightly more organic look, I adore these recycled glass handblown bottles from viva terra:

Rachel at Harmony and Home says:
"I was going to say the same thing as "sss". Your local TJ Max, Marshalls, etc. for the best price on these. Also, check out craigslist.org! "

An anonymous commenter sited J. Peterman's - which I didn't know had housewares!

A great site http://www.greatstuffbypaul.com has some real ones from France on page 2 at great prices. (go to Pottery, Glass and Stone and THEN on page 2 are the wine bottles) Great Stuff by Paul has other wonderful things too. My sister has bought other things from them and had great results. Also on Ebay type in 'large demijohns'. There is a dealer in Canada I have dealt with. His store on Ebay is called 'TRP35 vintage Antique store'. I bought a huge amber demijohn from him a few years ago and he was great to work with. Looks like he has a huge green one for $99.00! He use to have a lot of bottles, I don't know if he still does. His shipping prices where not bad either.

Thank you to all!
