Inspired at a going away party :) and :(

So this weekend I had the privledge of joining a group of wonderful people all with the purpose of sending a friend and her husband off to Germany with well wishes and blessings. This going away gala was held at the Olguin's home in Costa Mesa, CA. The only way I can describe their home is by saying that it is absolutely darling!
Welcome.

The living area. I tried capturing the warmth of the room as it was lit by mostly candle light. Yes, that is a window pane hoisted from the ceiling...love it!

At a loss for words...just love it!

Dining room. I was at this table most of the evening :)

This is where the magic happens!

I am officially in love with pears.
I didn't want to leave...Pretty soon finding the perfect home in the East Side of Costa Mesa is going to become like apartment hunting in NYC...Coveted. You'll have to start checking the weekly obituaries to find one. Simply charming.
