Bungalow Mondays: Tromp L'oeil Leather Tufted Walls

*Kapyton Pure White Leather Wallpaper, $59 per roll via Couture Decor*

I love tufted furniture and walls, so when my husband sent me a link to this tromp l'oeil wallpaper the other day I thought it was super cool. The wallpaper looks exactly like tufted leather, and apparently (per the website) itis made "with superior-quality paper, with a grain leather touch & feel." So it even FEELS like leather? How awesome is that? It comes in a few different colors (white, grey, chocolate, red, and pink), but I think I'm partial to the white (super modern but traditional at the same time). What do you think?

Bungalow Mondays: LIME GREEN Moment



A few weeks back my husband and I randomly decided to stop in a local thrift store. The shop had a huge 30% off EVERYTHING sign, so we figured we might as well check it out. Well it didn't take long for us to both fall in love with this incredibly amazing (and completely unnecessary) lime green Queen Anne chair.

We both wanted it, and started contemplating whether or not we could really justify the purchase. We don't have room for it where we live right now, but it's just an amazing piece and is in really great shape and is accompanied by a great price tag (sounds like a triple threat to me!). We finally just said "We want this! Even if we can't use it until we move into a house we are going to buy it and figure it out later!!"

So now we have this gorgeous chair sitting at home (which reminds me it still needs a good cleaning from me). At first we had talked about getting the chair reupholstered, but now the more and more we look at it the more bitchin we find the lime green. We have all the time in the world to figure out what we are going to do, and realstically can't even decide before we actually move, but what do you think? Are you smitten with the lime green too? :)

Bungalow Mondays


Every year around this time I start cruising online (usually on redfin) looking for homes in the area. I tell myself maybe NEXT Summer we will actually be buying a house. Well this year, I actually believe myself that next Summer we will start looking for a home. We won't be in any rush, we want to make sure we buy exactly what we want, but since I'm re-excited about the prospects of a house within the next year or two I've started adding photos again to my "future home" folder I keep on my computer.

So this is just a little warning, that you may start seeing more home-inspired posts on this blog (like you used to when I first started this thing). I think I will start a weekly post called Bungalow Mondays to put the "bungalow" back in redBungalow. Hopefully you won't mind. :)

For today I'm leaving you with one of my favorite tablescapes to get my mind rolling on all things that I LOVE about a home. Hopefully you will find this inspiring too.

Hope you had a great weekend!
