image inspiration

ok so... today I thought of a website that I have frequented in the past but haven't browsed in a long time.  they do interviews with cool people from all over the world.  the pictures are what fascinates me so.  i love to see how these people live... not necessarily "those" people in particular.  sometimes one catches my eye.  truthfully, i was looking this morning before any kids got here and had to stop when they arrived so i just logged off the internet but left my browser open to one of the interviews.  it's naptime now and i opened it back up to look through the pictures again and read a bit about one of the interviewees.  i adore the greenhouse... regardless of the rest of the interview.  but i found myself  staring at the inside of her home.  the big tiled floor and dark wooden flooring, her shoes, the baby bed alongside her own, imagining all the while what her life might be like... for real.  people's lives... even mine to you I'm sure... are different than they look online.  you only see the pretty stuff... not the fact that I've had to have more teeth pulled because of my gritting and grinding, and the infection from it, the truck pulls at county fairs we've been going to (came in 3rd at one), the sunshine, the rain, the rotten garden, the dust on my dresser and cat hair on the floor.  people's lives aren't always as sunny as they seem online... just keeping it real.  that ranted over... i do adore the sunny side of this life...  and i did enjoy the interview. (i made myself read it rather than just looking at the pictures... arty people are fascinating, aren't they.)


Where on earth did this couch come from?  It is awesome and looks so soft.

How quaint... a mirror above the table and goldenrod spilling from a chair.

Step up into a different world.

The fronds on her curtains are fantastic.

I truly enjoy the way this room is set up.  The couches (that were once a sectional?), the globes up top, the music station in back, the sunburst mirror, ugh!  I just want to curl up with the blanket and look through the magazines on the couch don't you!?

I do adore the rugs in her home.  And the chandelier over the bed.

The richness in the floor boards.

Ok so you can find this interview HERE.  All of the pictures came from the same website.

 

Let's find another shall we?  It didn't take long.

 

Same website... the photos found were from THIS interview. 

 

OK so there's really no question in my mind why this interior with it's décor captures my eye.  From the plants to the taxidermy and light.  It all seems so alive.
 

The website Fruende von Freunden has so many interviews and other postings that I could browse all day.  Take a visit with them sometime.
