Sink Worthy

Not many sinks have I had the privilege if really getting to know.. but in our last home I LOVED my kitchen sink. It was useful, durable and oh so functional in every way. It was a blanco silgranit sink. Fabulous! This sink in particular did not have the known sink dividers. It was one solid bowl to challenge any task in. For a moment I did think I would miss the sink divide but that quickly flew out the door with the many more possibilities a single huge sink provided. Listen to this; I could place both range grates in & soak and clean them, wash any hand wash only item with ease, pots of any size, no problem, hide your dirty dishes while a guest pops by and on little bodies it worked like a charm. All I want is for you to consider breaking the divide in your next sink and go big. It's a big beautiful thing.

I have blue taffeta drapes.  I love them.  But not until I saw this photo did I really realize how I adored them.  It really comes down to what you love in your home.  What really floats your boat.  I am a neutral goddess and yet I am fascinated with color and not your average accents.  And these luxurious drapes  float my boat.  They create an anchor for the rest of the room, nearly white walls with graded tones that create interest and much needed peace.  Plus consider each level of texture this room has, textures like these give a room depth which is a key for inviting you in, especially when done well.  
Does this room invite you in?
