The Beauty of Faux Wood Shutters

Building materials used to be simple to choose and buy, simply because there wasn't much of a selection. You only had to choose between two and three choices in home building materials. Now, however, the number of choices can make it very difficult to choose what you want and need for your home, in everything from faux wood shutters to replacement doors. That is why it is important to do your research before you walk into the store to help you determine what you want and need without being confronted with the myriad of choices. The good news is that no matter what your budget, you are sure to find the home building materials that you want and need for your home. Learning more about the material choices can give you the information that you need to make the best choice for you, your budget, and your home.

Beautiful Dar Beida guesthouse: or where to stay in Essaouira

Blog 11 It was hot in Marrakech.  Oh very hot.  And she had needed to escape to that town on the coast, Essaouira, her favorite Summertime (and anytime) haunt

Now she was no longer a Spring chicken (sadly, so sadly).  And so she had stayed in quite a few guest houses and hotels in her time.  Some luxurious with down pillows and beautiful bath products and some......well, not much better than sleeping on the floor of the bus station (oh dear). 

But had she ever stayed anywhere - anywhere at all -  like Dar Beida?  No never.  It was organic and Moroccan and African and modern and high/lo all at the same time.  This was the sort of place that you could imagine yourself staying in, well, forever.  This little house on three floors was so lovely, that she promptly began thinking up all her best arguments to get the British owners to sell it to her.  (My, weren't they tired of Morocco yet?  What did they mean, No?)

It was all in the details, you see.  Now she couldn't possibly share them all in one batch.  But here's a few to start..........

A charming place to hang the house keys........Each key a treasure from nature attached.

Blog 2

Two chairs in the entry where you could sit and gaze at.......

Blog 1

This darling little rustic steer display....The blogging girl was quite fond of cows, and this suited her to a tee.

Blog 9

There was an interior courtyard in the center of Dar Beida and African art placed here and there. (The girl had her very own body masks like the one in this image that she had collected in Tanzania, South Africa, and Kenya.)

Blog 4

Oh yes, please do perch on this little  stool and read from the enormous trove of interior design magazines...........Heaven!

Blog 8

This vintage African chair was covered entirely with tiny beads.  How very amazing. 

Blog 6

The chair was in this charming little bedroom.  The bed was covered with a fine wool vintage haik, worn by Moroccan women once upon a time.  (The girl had several of these horded for her shop.)

Blog 12 Oh the view from the roof terrace......She could smell the sea.  (And the girl had these very same mod chairs for the roof of Peacock Pavilions.  Could it be that Dar Beida had everything she liked?)

Blog 10 

The girl sat and talked on the phone while checking her Blackberry.  She told everyone she might be staying in Essaouira for a good, long time...........Could she be a stowaway at Dar Beida?

***********

Dar Beida, Essaouira, rented only in its entirety (which is a good thing because you'll want it all for yourself...)
