Have you seen the new magazine Flea Market Style? I’m so excited for Linda, my blog friend from Restyled Home, who worked with Matthew Mead and Ki Nassauer to put the issue together. Check it out!
10 Ideas for Decorating Over Your Bed: CasaSugar.
Check out Maya’s Completely Coastal kitchen makeover.
Take a virtual tour of Dunsmuir House, the estate used in films like Burnt Offerings.
Sad sign of the times? Terry Hoskins bulldozed his $350,000 home to keep the bank from taking it.
Listen to a revealing conversation with Beth Rubino, the Set Decorator for “Something’s Gotta Give,” at The Skirted Roundtable.
Beckie at Infarrantly Creative transformed this kitchen with a little money and a lot of black paint.
According to People, Jon & Kate Gosselin finally sold their starter home, but at a loss (they were asking $325,000 but got $258,000). House photos here.
Sarah shows us how to set a pretty table with sheet music: A Beach Cottage.
A slideshow of blue rooms through the decades: House Beautiful.

Best wishes to your blog-friend on this new venture, and thanks to you for being such a generous passer-on of fantastic links! I haven’t had the time to root around any of the the links yet except the blue and white kitchens, but it’s something to look forward to over coffee later today. What made me smile in the photos above is that Maya used an IKEA island in her makeover and there’s an IKEA chandelier in Sarah’s tablescape. I hear IKEA criticised a lot, but I personally think it brings out the resourcefulness and customising creativity in a lot of homelovers.

I just double-checked the link and it’s working for me. Did anyone else have problems with it? You might want to try their home page instead: http://www.dunsmuir.org/. -Julia
Way to go Terry Hoskins!! Where are the bailouts when it’s actually legitimate?
Thanks for the heads-up on the mag, I didn’t think it was coming out until this coming week!

I am most excited to read about decorating over the bed, and the story about the man who bulldozed his home…crazy!

Love the links. Thanks for the post.
My master bedroom is featured in the Casa Sugar Decorating Over Your Bed article. It’s the 8th bedroom…. blue room, wood bed and the tiny artwork above. Just thought I’d share!

Thankyou Julia for sharing all of these things with us.
Maya’s kitchen makeover is amazing! I’m sure it took alot of work to get it finished.
I love the Dunsmuir mansion, especially the staircase. I would love to have a house with a nice staircase.
I think the bank or whatever will most likely sue him now and he’ll just owe them that much and have to claim bankruptcy or whatever.
Love Beckie’s Kitchen! That and I am looking forward to getting my hands on a copy of Flea Market Style!
