Recently, I had the opportunity to travel to one of the most amazing places in the world, Thailand. And I was fortunate to stay at some of the most incredibly fabulous spa like resorts. Fast forward a few weeks and I'm home looking around at my drab decor thinking, man why can't my place look like those places I stayed at in Thailand.
How do you create a little bit of five-star luxury to your every day life and home?

The colors seemed more vibrant.




























One of my favorite photos.


























The flowers were beautiful


























The old world charm of the city.



























This was the courtyard of my villa.
























The place I stayed in Chiang Mai
























The elegant hotel in Bangkok
























The entrance to my villa in Phuket.
























Touring the surrounding islands of Phuket I was inspired by the colors and the textures.

      Thank you! That is a great idea! I was thinking I'd incorporate the colors in a painting or two. But never thought of drapes. Thank you!

    It is not a 'vacation spot' with out a water feature. There are some great wall fountains you can add or a shallow floor pond feature.

      That is an awesome idea! Yes there is something about the element of water that creates a soothing atmosphere.

    Beautiful! I love having good coffee and tea around, because a special hot drink in the AM is one of my favorite things about vacation :) Also, my husband takes some really nice photos from all over, and we hang those up to have a slice of wherever we've been. One thing that I'd really like to do when the weather is nicer is to put up a hammock!
