(you will have to work for them) LOL (not too hard~honestly) THERE WILL BE A QUIZ ! Muse, how were you inspired to begin writing? I simply adore the art of cursive manuscript, (and calligraphy) my Nanny’s handwriting was a billowy, flowing, swirling concoction of thoughts and ideas on paper…just looking at it made it me happy…I wanted to mimic [...]
Ding Dong…Ding Dong… The Postman Rang Twice… Shall we open the box together…? Oh goodness..Wisteria. Let’s! Isn’t this gorgeous? The Muse loves the color! Mmmmm where will it go? Perhaps in front of the fireplace in the painted parlor…perhaps. I do believe that my beloved has been peeking into my well loved Wisteria catalog! Its pages are well worn…with my wish list items circled, starred and rated. Now there is another box…shall we open, or have tea first? Tea first, [...]

There once was a sofa…a sweetheart of a gal, who loved denim. Her favorite skirt was denim too…with a bit of tassel and fluff. Can you catch a peek?

And her friend the Muse made her one, a custom fit…true to her form.It looks lovely on her, don’t you agree? While out and about…she decided she [...]
(pictures follow) We are thankful that a marvelous Christmas season was had…one that allowed all of our family to be together, sons, daughters, grandchildren and my husband’s father. Dad has been in the hospital for weeks now and we miss him. We found out today that he has begun to bleed in his stomach again. The prognosis is not good. Our hearts are low. We think back to the last times we were all together…Christmas. A season of love. Very [...]

After five years of dating, my youngest son has asked for the hand of his love! What a wonderful dinner party we had. As a celebration, he cooked for everyone (for those of you who know this Muse, he get’s that from his dad!) My son has a modest little house, that they will turn into a home…the dining room is bright and cheery, with a combination of retro and modern styles. Their differences play off one another…I can see [...]
~Painting My Own Kitchen Cabinets~
(camera date is not set~my apologies) After much thought, I have decided this Muse cannot live in a white kitchen(I appreciate them, and the beauty they posses)but, they simply are not Musey enough for me …so I have made my own paint mix…and now the beauty of creation begins!

In the basement dark and deep lurks a lioness who rarely sleeps. She stalks the forests of children’s trees which are gilded with ornaments in lieu of leaves. She nibbles and she gnaws and bats the tinsel with her paws. Quietly she listens as the lights glisten to hear the tunes play in the room. Her favorite lines are those that rhyme she meows them till dawn. Say a Merry Christmas to The Muse’s Miss Boog Padawan ! (please forgive [...]

do you have a window next to your desk? That you can look out of.
Yes I do! The image here….That is the design table where I layout my blueprints in hand~drawn format…There is vintage 1930′s metal desk which sits directly at the window…Allowing me to look upon the green fields…and on the days I cannot venture forth, it is my life preserver in the silent storms…
It’s so gorgeous. It looks like a spa almost!

Thank you all so much! I did put a lot of me in here..LOL sweat equity..! There is a venetian plaster finish on the walls with some hand carved reliefs, And some re~creations of column work. I also used my wallpaper design (the first roll off the press)! The cabinetry was a bear to bring to the upper level of the cottage!…
Oh My I have written another blog LOL sorry!
What a peaceful looking place to work. I wish my office and whole house were that neat.
I love your office…it sings of sweet escape and warm comfort. I, too, wish I had such a place. It’s as if you created your own Italian villa that pours out creativity and awakens the soul. I love it! Thank you for sharing with us.
