Another dose of color therapy from domino magazine this month - I am finding pastels so appealing - not in the traditional overtly frilly feminine way - but just simple and gorgeous - lush and sexy... I love the interior of Ruthie Sommers' Project Manager, Krista Ewart's home featured in the June/July issue.
I tend to post about Vivre quite a bit - I really can't help it - the company has redefined luxe glamour and I can not get enough. I just received the Summer catalogue and was particularly smitten by these two images {as well as the products featured in each shot}. The combination of colors on the table are all at once earthly and ethereal - gorgeous. And while I seem drawn to colors this time of year - I still can't get enough of white on white...
Things may be a bit quiet about Athena Says for a few weeks - tomorrow begins the demolition of our circa 1927 kitchen to make way for more beautiful {and newer!} things. And though my husband and I could live on take-out for three weeks - our toddlers cannot! So Grandma's house - here we come...
But then again, you know me - it is so hard to stay away...

I can get rather obsessive over certain things - when I saw the new Harlequin Collection of teacups by Wedgwood, I was determined to have one. After about 100 calls - including several lengthy calls to England - I found out they should be available by the beginning of the summer - alas - I shall have to wait - but the Deco design {bottom right} looks to be so worth it!
I love the fact that I keep receiving these little wonders of inspiration in my post box everyday - the new outdoor furniture line from Brocade Home is - to be expected - sublime. And could you just die for that pink grill? I love that you can now shop online - my living room has recently been graced with this beauty...
LOVE this Glam Rock Chandelier by jewelry designers Erickson Beamon - for detail shots of this piece click here.
One more for the weekend - I couldn't resist as this was just dropped in my mail box. My favorite pages from the Anthropologie Home catalogue - gorgeous!
I found this Ram's Head piece this afternoon while stopping in ZGallerie; as a proud Aries, I had to have it - it reminded me so much of the lamp in this post - now where to put it. And while in Atlanta a few months ago, I picked up this ring by Elizabeth Cole - love, love, love my Rams! Have a great weekend!
It is set to be a busy week at Juniper - as such I leave you with some of my favorite links to peruse before I return next week...
~ Who doesn't want a closet full of dresses this Spring? Now to find the look to fit the growing belly... hmmmm... the beauties above are from Anthropologie...
~ Domino's fantastic green issue is a wonderful resource for environmentally responsible home decor options - check out the Green List on their site...
~ I start every morning with a visit to 3191 - I can't say enough about what these photographs do for me everyday...
~ I LOVE checking up on the latest happenings in fashion at Shiny Squirrel - her taste is impeccable!
~ Planning the new baby's nursery here...
~ and if you are a complete dork like me, don't forget to pre-order this.
I know this has made the design blog rounds sometime ago - but I can't stop staring at it. Wall hanging by Iso Satakieli for Marimekko - available at Textile Arts.
