I was flipping thru Elle Decor and came across above ping pong table designed by James DeWulf.  I generally cringe when someone wants some type of ping pong or pool table, well cringe may be too strong a word but its not something I get too excited about. I think good looking games tables are hard to find if you don't want something overly traditional. I thought the table (shown above and below) was a great option.  You can do it in any color you like.  I have also included the ping pong table designed by James Perse, which is also a great option.  They make it in a pool table as well. 

Since the moment I saw pictures of Francis Ford Coppola's hotel, Palazzo Margherita, in southern Italy it has been top on my list of must visits.  A vacation seems a lifetime away as I'm having a baby in 7 weeks, but I can daydream.  I have big plans for next summer so why not start planning a trip now.  

French designer; Jacques Grange collaborated with Coppola to create this luxurious Italian oasis. With just 9 rooms and private cooking classes offered daily it seems like the perfect escape from life in LA and NY.
