From My Stack of Magazines: September

So many great images and ideas in this months stack of magazines. Real Simple had two great new gift tag options this month. One was to use photo corners to hold tags and the other was a tape table. Both look great and you could use either despite the occasion.

This place setting from Better Homes and Gardens is so simple and works for Halloween, Thanksgiving, or any fall get together.

This interior designed by Christopher Noto absolutely glitters. The mirrors surrounding the interior of the fireplace and the metallic sheen to the curtains add so much sparkle and glamour. I also like the very simple tree stump table in the bathroom. This natural element is interesting juxtaposed to the otherwise opulent room, but it still manages to blend in with the other white furnishings.

This Tuscan farmhouse makes me want to hop on a plane to Italy. It reminds me of the summer I spent studying abroad in Italy. Time to update my passport.

What a huge difference a little paint makes. By painting the back of the shelves black the white pitchers really stand out. To me, the white pitches against the black background look kind of like a silhouette.

My favorite of all of these upholstered beds is the blue one below. My jaw dropped when I saw it. Gorgeous.

If I had a bathtub like this I'd take bubble baths every day. I love it's reflective silvery surface. But does anyone else see something a bit odd in this photo? Look at the four legs of the seat on the left then at the two legs on the seat on the right side of the photo. Bad photoshopping?
