Louis Ghost chairs have become stylish iconic pieces. They're very versatile so they're used outside in elegant affairs, in living rooms, dining rooms and anywhere a little style is needed.


The Louis Ghost Chair is sturdy and durable but virtually disappears in a room leaving a trace of elegance appearance.
The only draw back for me is the price. Ouch, I know it's stylish but it plastic people. Come on!
I did a search on the Internet and found this comparable chair at Overstock and the price for two chairs is 25% less than one. Happy shopping!

Kartell - Louis Ghost Chair - $410




Clear Acrylic Arm Chairs (Set of 2) Overstock.com: "Clear Acrylic Arm Chairs" - $329.99

Modern lighting is more streamlined with beautiful clean lines but the prices can be quite shocking. I saw this chandelier in Restoration Hardware and loved the look of it and even though it was on sale it was still expensive. With a little research I found a comparable item at Overstock for less than half the price.

Rectangular Shade Chandelier: "Rectangular Shade Chandelier" - $449 - $629



Ventura Rectangular Chandelier Overstock.com: "Ventura Rectangular Chandelier" - $209.99 and with a 10% coupon - $188.99

When I moved in my house, I inherited the most inspiring kitchen with the most beautiful wall paper.

Okay I'm lying, the kitchen is a good size but that's the only thing I liked about the kitchen.

The cabinets are Thermafoil white with white laminate counter tops with the busy ivy wallpaper and vertical blinds. The kitchen also boasts the most interesting light fixture. Although I'm all for saving money and reusing what I can reuse. This light needs a quiet burial..... sorry light.

I would like to rip out the kitchen and get a high luxury kitchen ( I think I hear my wallet laughing - oh shut up). I can't afford to do that so I'm going to do the work in phases.

The first thing to go was the wallpaper. Of course without the wallpaper it left the kitchen looking so white it blinded us for months, but it was 200% better than the wallpaper.

After living with an all white kitchen for a year, I decided to paint the kitchen because with grubby little hands the walls needed to be wiped constantly and frankly, it was getting on my nerves. Of course looking for the perfect paint color is no easy task and after a while of looking at paint chips you start getting more and more confused. Even white could be hundreds of whites.

Finally I found narrowed it down to gray, but I didn't want a cool gray. I settled on a warmer gray from Sherman Williams called Versatile Gray. It's gray with hints of brown, it's a creamy modern color that doesn't overpower the room. It's really a beautiful color and I'm going to definitely going to use it somewhere else in my house. Of course it took me forever to paint the kitchen (3 dang days to be exact) but it was so worth it.



I'm now looking a for a light fixture to replace the "interesting one", new blinds and accessories to get it the kitchen to an acceptable level until I can get the kitchen of my dreams.
