I've been looking for that perfect table and chairs and so far no luck and the ones that have caught my eye are way out of my price range. So, until that "match in heaven" materializes in front of me I don't mind to keep on waiting. But I haven't been resting on my laurels instead I've been searching at least for the chairs and even when bamboo regency chairs are almost everywhere I see I'm leaning towards them.

The paneled dining room with the cozy red banquettes can inevitably transport you to Paris in a second. But it's the striking black and white striped bar that hypnotizes me. It's so incredibly perfect that looking at it could drive you insane and most likely you'll need a bib. Below are images that I love and remind me of the always perfect, "no-way-Jose-can-go-wrong", classy stripes. </div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhg6CC8R_wv0btu674sUomfYoUACwBXs4kn1sgzUwISe1Lp3JmEYpWE1EHKY8Odj_kWIN36PofmybmuhNaG4PMigYgLiERIhSDLxk0MTLJFEn-SCOWdE9Y0N76spGg7sAApvVOu0j1p6Ns/s1600/oliveaux.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="550" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465181053274948834" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhg6CC8R_wv0btu674sUomfYoUACwBXs4kn1sgzUwISe1Lp3JmEYpWE1EHKY8Odj_kWIN36PofmybmuhNaG4PMigYgLiERIhSDLxk0MTLJFEn-SCOWdE9Y0N76spGg7sAApvVOu0j1p6Ns/s400/oliveaux.jpg" width="463" /></a><br />  </div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvvnGoY5UM7BXHTQYQl2MmI9CMwH7v0nqSY4c682JjB2WbZf1Ytes2q5VAiJ9EncKQI79Hiadx1epmG0z6SNP9SGGbNz3z8PLlaTJxDUwV7WXHek82YKTZXtNw4uacMK8xwwB_xnTbHzE/s1600/fric+and+frac+blog.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="640" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465181051551134274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvvnGoY5UM7BXHTQYQl2MmI9CMwH7v0nqSY4c682JjB2WbZf1Ytes2q5VAiJ9EncKQI79Hiadx1epmG0z6SNP9SGGbNz3z8PLlaTJxDUwV7WXHek82YKTZXtNw4uacMK8xwwB_xnTbHzE/s400/fric+and+frac+blog.jpg" width="451" /></a><br />  <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1_QZvWHtse22iLASoW-Og5Stpm13MFnC8aIBeTMDwHIkTrx7IK7i5mwqu34Pa9kHIkAM1nwr9y70dXXs3z9BlryNetHWWttx0-FrPFyR0SR26Q2wgxeGfjlsuhNAkB27NfnOvoKyLphs/s1600/via+coconuts+and+limes.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="460" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465181284948927138" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1_QZvWHtse22iLASoW-Og5Stpm13MFnC8aIBeTMDwHIkTrx7IK7i5mwqu34Pa9kHIkAM1nwr9y70dXXs3z9BlryNetHWWttx0-FrPFyR0SR26Q2wgxeGfjlsuhNAkB27NfnOvoKyLphs/s400/via+coconuts+and+limes.JPG" width="460" /></a></div>  <br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPmFoMj7AaJIiYWW5KeWZx8QRs7fv0QYuQlIkIW1AlP-Q5kHAS_vKWIjLija9jLJ6cCCfulvVVi03pg_91ijZ2n_Fr5FiZyPnM_al-5vQS3alnUMACWI6us4WBeSNp9rgzR335An-u7JA/s1600/via+vill+apacis+29043575%5B1%5D.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="680" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465181064044578738" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPmFoMj7AaJIiYWW5KeWZx8QRs7fv0QYuQlIkIW1AlP-Q5kHAS_vKWIjLija9jLJ6cCCfulvVVi03pg_91ijZ2n_Fr5FiZyPnM_al-5vQS3alnUMACWI6us4WBeSNp9rgzR335An-u7JA/s400/via+vill+apacis+29043575%5B1%5D.JPG" width="465" /></a></div>  <br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdQnNet2QE2tRkkil1Z07JAG_p0PITJas8ZrXDwlSb6DZ3C1YIbVQzENiYqtt_q216bfdqy__iOtwPqGK85TeRjAQVkO7HXGP2e8MLkMe8JMCOBcg5Y45ksdVK7Rm5aG71BiNRA33n09g/s1600/J6v0MLmQWpuq4p7fqBQKyIt's+Mary+RuffleFVBo1_400%5B1%5D.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="460" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465181048269941714" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdQnNet2QE2tRkkil1Z07JAG_p0PITJas8ZrXDwlSb6DZ3C1YIbVQzENiYqtt_q216bfdqy__iOtwPqGK85TeRjAQVkO7HXGP2e8MLkMe8JMCOBcg5Y45ksdVK7Rm5aG71BiNRA33n09g/s400/J6v0MLmQWpuq4p7fqBQKyIt's+Mary+RuffleFVBo1_400%5B1%5D.jpg" width="460" /></a></div>  <br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK_g-XNocV0UZX-KOXtUuTy_I50d9F6c8alfCZ-xRJCN7yw5wnVjqklYceJKRu_pg7KFgIPERqaskR8wl0BD9kt7Yn30ekJ3dtAtMemWR3ZaUQv2X6WZLWXVpsx_BNmqTTUOzvsf_qKVM/s1600/black+and+white+striped+chair.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="640" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465181040561034466" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK_g-XNocV0UZX-KOXtUuTy_I50d9F6c8alfCZ-xRJCN7yw5wnVjqklYceJKRu_pg7KFgIPERqaskR8wl0BD9kt7Yn30ekJ3dtAtMemWR3ZaUQv2X6WZLWXVpsx_BNmqTTUOzvsf_qKVM/s400/black+and+white+striped+chair.jpg" width="468" /></a></div><span style="font-size: 85%;">Image credit: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/34514184@N03/3558955821">1</a>, <a href="http://oliveaux.blogspot.com/">2</a>, <a href="http://fricandfracblog.blogspot.com/">3</a>, <a href="http://coconutsandlimes.blogspot.com/">4</a>, the rest don't remember.

Textured Walls

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;">One thing I love is the feeling of unpolished limestone walls in a bathroom. Even though a bathroom with marble on the floors and walls is exquisite and refined to the eyes I think I prefer the warm feeling I get from touching a textured wall in my shower. Marbles and tiles have the tendency to feel colder to the touch. I've been collecting images of rooms with textured walls for my future master bath renovation. I don't think that is anytime soon due to all the other home projects that I need to tackle before, but by the time it comes I'll have enough beautiful images to get inspiration from. How about you, do you prefer finished or unfinished stone in your shower?<br /><div style="text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhILRo2HjBptu6Venl3MXjlCGWYhQYerDKndIQiGvMo1lMPwtd_FdsrgtYGOKcOCB5XhaFWvSof37MqXFpeTDsa2m9ZVlQSY0gDg3ExFYQ1mSzvmg2tvS2AvGRURbCgMSeh7_UWjl5KyM/s1600/tub-gray-bathrm.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="600" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464199637846041538" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhILRo2HjBptu6Venl3MXjlCGWYhQYerDKndIQiGvMo1lMPwtd_FdsrgtYGOKcOCB5XhaFWvSof37MqXFpeTDsa2m9ZVlQSY0gDg3ExFYQ1mSzvmg2tvS2AvGRURbCgMSeh7_UWjl5KyM/s400/tub-gray-bathrm.jpg" width="460" /></a></div></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP1uudT_Fw9a3bM2WTlIeezxcJWSXtt2_AqyrbkN3hj1bA3XpqIMHFRAPPMqJBmnES5ZA_HTiYwVu_z75CQXYC2bsNMFzllnyoFwNvx8EAkO-jQIASbryckzUPPUW7KqOZybZ5h65Dlug/s1600/concrete+walls,+design.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" height="600" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464433774517743842" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP1uudT_Fw9a3bM2WTlIeezxcJWSXtt2_AqyrbkN3hj1bA3XpqIMHFRAPPMqJBmnES5ZA_HTiYwVu_z75CQXYC2bsNMFzllnyoFwNvx8EAkO-jQIASbryckzUPPUW7KqOZybZ5h65Dlug/s400/concrete+walls,+design.jpg" width="466" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2zHUe1_e7BgTrOSjD3ZETgdnSZEddwA096cbLHV7ohrqGWqQucVjyjOaCIKjNaq6qjAbRqYYPwQrTtd8-bO0erR1Tojyo3Gv-RnSu_8VClmTIpRpuPYmXS3lAfmwNdqTBFPyZYMFBA7k/s1600/Foto+5.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="431" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464199639562630594" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2zHUe1_e7BgTrOSjD3ZETgdnSZEddwA096cbLHV7ohrqGWqQucVjyjOaCIKjNaq6qjAbRqYYPwQrTtd8-bO0erR1Tojyo3Gv-RnSu_8VClmTIpRpuPYmXS3lAfmwNdqTBFPyZYMFBA7k/s400/Foto+5.jpg" width="460" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinZBe_TzhtEfaG4xsrWffDAFuWNlnssar8bX314ZcJ7CE2ru2s691IlsBPCi5EVueZC5Sb9xH-JKKBREzhSLQiiD8netZFgW7xolg2fifsXH4E8-Aa_TD7RzSegrT43Y0g_fBn3rYtXR8/s1600/Foto+10_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="670" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464199626433421714" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinZBe_TzhtEfaG4xsrWffDAFuWNlnssar8bX314ZcJ7CE2ru2s691IlsBPCi5EVueZC5Sb9xH-JKKBREzhSLQiiD8netZFgW7xolg2fifsXH4E8-Aa_TD7RzSegrT43Y0g_fBn3rYtXR8/s400/Foto+10_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg" width="468" /></a></div><span style="font-size: 85%;">Image credit: <a href="http://www.nyspacesmagazine.com/">1</a>, <a href="http://belgianpearls.blogspot.com/">2 &4</a>, <a href="http://aperfectgray.blogspot.com/">3</a></span></div>
