3. Tropical Elegance: Oh, goodness! We sure do love that wallpaper. This looks like a scene from the 1920s. Teatime, anyone? Martinis, maybe? (via Turquoise Chic)

4. Statement Table: A cozy breakfast nook can be taken up a notch with an incredible table like this one. (via Flickr)

16. Beautiful Botany: We don’t know about you, but we’re a big fan of green in a space. In the form of flowers, that is. If you don’t have a green thumb, grab some bouquets from the store and showcase prints like the ones on this wall. (via Kitka Design Toronto)

23. Glass Table: Sometimes you don’t want the table to be the centerpiece. This adorably rustic room is all about the textile rug. (via Design Milk)
