Wow. That was my first reaction when first seeing this cozy stone cottage by Nicole Mizrahi Interiors. The stone exterior continues inside so that about half the walls are stone. The result is a warm embrace of rustic charm once you step through the front door. Although the amount of stone could become foreboding, the…

Do you ever do something fairly radical on a whim? I was so inspired by this kitchen photo that I ran out the next day to get Dutch Tile Blue paint for my kitchen. The purchase was entirely an impulse buy, and of course it helped that Sherwin Williams was offering a buy-one-get-one promo for…
