Stencil Space

I took this picture where I work.What a great use of wall space! The  red velvet cake stencil  applique adds charm to a large country kitchen. Stencils can be used in any room to personalize or add visual interest.  

Girly Girl Chic

This is a great space already. It gets lots of light and an attached bathroom. It has the potential to be such a great space for twin girly girls....Take a look at the final results.

Custom shades on this chandelier add an excellent touch.



Southern Style

There's nothing like open space to inspire the creative juices 



Love the classic Chesterfield sofa from Restoration Hardware

the Belgian linen fabric conveys a light summer aesthetic.



A monochromatic color pallet cools the sweltering southern summer 



Summer Style

I absolutely love the summer for outdoor living... here are a few ideas for bringing the inside out.

What a wonderful setting for an early summer reception... I love California wine country.

Let's get away from it all... The NYC rooftop deck of designer Alessandra Branca

Who needs the beach when you can have this.... It's so L.A.backyard.

L.A. reto front yard deck 

I love the colorful  tile patch work style in this California back yard 

The Italian garden style of a London courtyard invokes a measure of peace.

Summertime... the living is easy on a screened porch.



I hope you're inspired to create your own summer outdoor living space.

Chandeliers

I love a beautiful chandelier hung low over a dining table... on dimmers.  It adds an element of  romance and elegance. Where would you hang a beautiful chandelier?

Offset a stunning ceiling with a stunning chandelier

Pure perfection

A small chanderlier over a bed adds the right amount of ambient lighting
