BODIE and FOU

natural, gorgeous, and highly covetable

cutting boards // ceramic bowls // basket // doll // animal head

design philosophy | providing a foundation to grow and alter through the years, I keep the core basic and layer in the current, creating a room that is innately yours. I believe great interiors are not found in one shop. I know you should feel a sense of calm in your space as well as balance, and revel in that gut feeling that it’s the right fit. DESIGN SERVICES start at only 10.00. See Sarah Swanson Design at the top left of this blog!

ikat basket, yes please!

baskets and boxes oh my! For this girl a room is not complete without them. I love great storage-

and while snooping at west elm, there was something about this lamp.. I can't decide if I love it or not, but I can't stop looking at it!

love stella & dot? Canadian shoppers can visit my shop by clicking right here! x

adding warmth

I love the warmth that natural wood and baskets bring to a home. Just a piece or two is perfect for me. It's been a stuck at home kind of weekend, it's cold and drifting snow.. too yucky to tote two kids around. The down time is actually quite lovely after the busy of the holidays, x

three things

It's been a few years since Sharon Mimrans living room was featured in Canadian House and Home- but even though it's been years, I continue to be inspired by it over and over. It's something about the mix.

This kitchen, designed by Linda Reeves and her team for a hospital lottery home has baskets as cabinetry.. have to say I love that-

and what are your thoughts about a table in place of an island? I do like the feel of this kitchen-

a second look at Suzanne Kasler's office

Like the rest of Suzanne Kasler's amazing office ( we looked at it here ) I (re) fell for these spaces. Rows of baskets to organise-

and a bulletin board / inspiration board that isn't over done.

I like to see what I'm inspired by!

I won a giveaway from Melissa Blake ( have you met this lady? She is remarkable, inspiring and seriously lovely! ) I am SO excited to receive my new Plum Pretty Sugar lounge pants. I love lounge pants.. I love lounging ( when I have the chance! ) Thank you so much Melissa + Plum Pretty Sugar!

tropical punch

I love adding these two elements to a space. Woven materials.. in baskets or blinds and leafy palms. For me, they complete my space. What do you have to have in your space?
