"Best Picture . . . "
Miles Redd for Elle Decor (photography by William Waldron) |
Greetings,
After a busy couple of days at the office last weekend - I ended up being about to jaunt down to LA on Monday for a small part of the Design Bloggers Conference. It was great seeing friends like Tobi Fairley, Susanna Salk, Bradley Clifford, Charlotte Moss, and Stacy Kunstel in attendance. The speakers were numerous . . . but, as per usual . . . the topic of 'publication' came up several times from the podium. Each editor spoke of - "that picture" - the one that inspires the reader. The one that ends up on everyone's blog. The one that ends up being posted to most often on Pinterest. The 'magic' image that conveys all the passion and style of the entire residence in one picture.
So I began to think about which images that I keep returning to. The ones that have ended up on my blog and pinterest pages. The images from magazines that I still possess in their original paper format. That I can't seem to recycle.
So here . . . in no particular order are a few of my favourites . . .

I just have a few things posted as my favorites. If I really start working on it I'm afraid I'd never get anything done around here.
I also love the first blue and white image as my living area is all about blue and white Chinese ginger jars.
Thanks for sharing these great pictures. On my blog my readers all seem to rush to anything "French style".

You are so right, though. Some rooms just remain in your head because they're wonderful, inspiring, and usually unique.
