Artist, designer and art director Mike Meiré lives in a funky, creative home in Cologne, Germany with his wife and 3 kids. It’s a very eclectic and quirky home that is clearly a source of inspiration for the homeowner. I reeeeeeally love the kitchen – consisting only of some shelves, a huge island and some dressers.

Beth Evans, an interior designer based in London, sent us an email the other day which included photos of her adorable dog, and a link to her blog which showcases some photos of her home, and a link to her Etsy shop. Well, I was totally smitten with each one of these and had to share them all with you. First, I had better start off with Beth’s dog Elton “who likes to sleep in my box of Vintage Fabrics and sofas, and beds and anywhere else he is not supposed to be!”

Next, Beth’s mid-century-decorated home, “a 1960s townhouse in London which has been in our family since its construction. We have spent the past four years rebuilding many areas of the house including the kitchen, garden and living areas, creating an open plan living space. The house is furnished with a mixture of Vintage Flea Market and High Street finds and the kitchen area is almost entirely decorated with Vintage nic nacs collected from Charity Shops and Car Boot Sales. All the cushions on display are from lollandlie and available to buy from our Etsy shop.”

Last but not least, Beth’s Etsy shop lollandlie, where she sells cushion covers made gorgeous graphic vintage fabrics she’s been collecting for years. Great news – she’ll be adding more at the end of August. Love them!!!

I love a photographer’s portfolio when each and every photo speaks volumes and has a little treasure that makes you swoon. With the photos below, for me it was a teal walls or two, a collection of mirrors, a chandelier paired with an Asian armoire and brick walls, white bed linens, grey-washed walls, a large bold photograph as art….

I think the title says it all…again. ENJOY!
