  Here is a wider pan of the mantle…with my finished muse and my wisteria zinc globes…that yes, I had to paint (the ceiling is getting bead-board…can we all say hallelujah?)

• ~Muse of Dreams~

  As I sit here, nestled and warm, within my studio walls…I peer out onto several feet of freshly fallen snow.  And no matter how much angst it has caused…one has to recognize the beauty it inheritantly possesses. Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

• ~Colored Pencil Sketches~

  Not every rustic home, such as a log home has rustic furnishings. There are times when rustic applications such as stone and timbers will meet the flair of contemporary styles. In these sketches I show how the love of Italian modern pieces can be brought into the country getaway lifestyle.   Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

• ~Her Chair Was Just Right~

  Here is a little sitting area, at our home,  ”The Painted Nest”. We use it mostly as a place to put on and take off our shoes. The chair, a vintage flea market find for $2.00, was in bad shape visually, but quite sound, structurally. So, The Muse was quick to grab this treasure! Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

  White dishware can offer so many options… Each holiday or event can be celebrated with basic pieces of white china or stoneware. For this Christmas table, the colors of silver and blue are combined with white to create this modern setting…the objective…to create an effect that would play off the branches (seen in the vases)… Add some wispy white feathers, blue and white snowflake tablecloth, miniature tea lights,(sprinkled with gold glitter) and a few silver ornaments…voila, the table becomes an [...]

• ~ Boudoir’s Cry For Help~

  Once upon a time, (well, not so very long ago), a lovely hotel, cried out for help. They had an excellent staff…the cuisine was impeccable…their amenities were unsurpassed. All this was being offered to the public for a fantastic price.  And yet, they obviously needed something for their bookings had begun to fade. It was quite clear, from this designer’s viewpoint, the rooms (while wonderfully maintained) were dated and not in a good way. The traditional qualities of the suites, the lobby and [...]
