OH, Domino. You still make my heart go pitty pat – especially when I stumble upon old scanned tear sheets from your archives, like this one I spotted (gasp!) on Pinterest when it was just a teeny tiny thumbnail on a page. There is still something so distinct and almost magical about the pages of Domino – the eclectic layering, the effortless chic… Every month was like Christmas when it came in the mail, and I always knew I was about to be transported into a world full of charm and wonder – one that was never inaccessible, and always inspiring. For instance, look at the photo above: that’s some lovely but demure granny chic wallpaper… a super feminine, ornate sconce… an old side table with books piled up Jenga-style… sheets with pink hearts on them, like the ones I had when I was 4… and your grandpa’s plaid wool blanket standing in as a comforter. And a little breakfast in the rumply bed. Who would’ve thought to have put ’em together, but put ’em together and what’ve you got?
Bibbity Bobbity Boo. It’s magic, I tell ya!
Have a great week!
Sigh… I think about Domino weekly.
And yes – who woulda thought that room would get attention in a magazine like Domino, but that’s how different the mag was.
Love ya!
