• ~A New Design Path~

  There are always rooms and spaces at The Painted Nest which need some sprucing up. Our beloved cottage is in a constant state of  “creation”. And I love it, I certainly do For me, color is my companion. So imagine my beloved’s shock, when this color palette was placed before him! Admittedly, this would be a new path for me. The Muse has creamy antique white accents throughout her cottage…but there is not a room which totally embraces the hue. [...]

• ~ 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 [...]

• ~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!

• Tablescape And Trash To Treasure All In One

  Acres of hidden treasure… In boxes and bins… All holding hidden beauty… All latent~silent gems… Under piles amassed… A hoarder’s stash… Of would be~could be… And should have beens. The Muse gathered her coinage… And smartly thus… Bought a wondrous bounty… As to make pirates lust…. A silver teapot battered about… A bird whose wing was weak… Not secure or truly stout… Paper roses wrinkled and worn… Their edges thread tattered and torn… Potpourri whose scent had gone… Yes, the [...]

• ~A Wee Bit of Fabric~

  I am not really sure that you can put a specific design name to The Painted Nest. Our cottage doesn’t fall into one style category, for it reflects not only our farm life…but our outside interests. (click pics to enlarge~if you dare!) Items we have gathered on our travels here and abroad…fill our home…as well as wondrous treasures passed from generation to generation. And there are handmade treasures that tell secret stories. Did you like this? Share it:Tweet

• “Tablescape Tuesday” ~ Picture

  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 [...]
