too darned hot

it is.  just too hot to go to the mailbox for a magazine check.  and if there are any sitting out there, it is too hot to exert myself by turning the pages. instead, i have taken to my cool, darkened room, clicking to enjoy the recent issues of lonny (especially good this time) and southern flourish.

among all the inspiriation in lonny, there is a great spread on ellie somerville’s chic & cheerful apartment, beginning on virtual page #145.  i love the way she painted in trompe l’oeil mouldings on her pale blue living room walls.  brilliant!

    Very nice NY apartment she did there. The painted on molding would have been much better with a shadow! And what a great idea how she put up the wallpaper: first the painters tape and then the double sided tape on top of that! Easy to take down which you want to do with a $300 a roll wallpaper. FB is really outrageously priced considering all the fabulous competition. I still wish Lonny was a real magazine. I find it exhausting with all the time i have to increase the page size to read anything.
