Finally, an afternoon to just relax with my October issue of Coastal Living. I was so thrilled to see designer Susan Ferrier featured in the "A Light Touch" design. As a fan of her interiors and sense of style, once again, she did not disappoint. A modern, subtle, beach decor style is just what I love. I think she said it best "..the decor doesn't always have to be beachy with a capital B to instill that relaxed, calming vibe everyone wants...". I want some of this design. Let's see if I can recreate at least one of them.
I love the palm tree seed branchs and glass balls in this photo. So simple, yet so elegant. I think this would look great on a buffet table.
I didn't have any luck locating the branches, but I thought some Manzanita branches may work as a good substitute. I found a great selection at Nettleton Hollow (http://www.nettletonhollow.com/). Here is a direct link to their Manzanita Branch selection: http://www.nettletonhollow.com/manzanita-nat-project.html?gclid=CN_fn6Cj06QCFTRa7Aodi1kqIg
I found the glass balls, which are actually glass floats at Seaside Inspired (http://www.seasideinspired.com/). I figure since they were listed by Coastal Living as a "Fabulous Online-Only Store", I'd take a peek. I struck beach decor heaven AND found these floats! Here is a direct link to their Sea Fog Glass Floats: http://www.seasideinspired.com/3335_sea_fog_glass_float.htm.
The vase appears to have the texture of birch. I found it at Viva Terra, but it's sold out. I thought I could get some birch bark and spray paint it a metallic silver to re-create the look. Or, just buy something similar. I found one at Bloomingdales (http://www.bloomingdales.com/). Here's a direct link (and its on sale):

Here's a room I could definitely lounge in and entertain in:
I think the wood stump tables, make this room. I found a similar table at West Elm (http://www.westelm.com/). Here is the direct link: http://www.westelm.com/products/natural-tree-stump-side-table-f655/?pkey=ccoffee-side-tables
Love the coral accent too. I found a huge selection at Seaside Inspired (http://www.seasideinspired.com/). Here is a direct link to all of their coral: http://www.seasideinspired.com/coral_decor.htm
The ottoman with the throw and a few books invite me to sit back, relax and browse through some books or magazines.
This kitchen is a dream. I love the driftwood inspiration, texture and color variations. This definitely gets added to the "wish book".

Hey! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble
with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to no backup.
Do you have any solutions to protect against hackers?

I comment whenever I especially enjoy a article on a website or if
I have something to contribute to the discussion. Usually it's triggered by the sincerness displayed in the article I looked at. And after this post "A Light Touch. Subtle, Beach decor style from Coastal Living Magazine". I was actually excited enough to drop a thought ;) I actually do have 2 questions for you if you usually do not mind. Could it be just me or do some of these responses appear like coming from brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are posting on additional online social sites, I would like to keep up with you. Would you make a list the complete urls of all your social pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
