Moving along to other orders of business........
MY FALL FABULOUS CONTEST. The Contest was a huge hit. I got in over 65 magnificent pictures and the biggest challenge of all will be selecting a winner (glad I don't have to be part of the voting process). I will be posting all the 'contenders next week" and will hold voting over a 1-2 day period. The picture with the most votes wins the prize! More details to come. There are some truly breathtaking images...I must declare my readers are soooo talented! Thanks to all for being a part of it and participating.
MY HOUSE. Finally getting down to business with my bedroom. Ordered the gorgeous silk I have had my eye on for months for the big windows in my closet/sitting area. I may end up using this as the fabric for windows in my bedroom too. Found a perfect velvet for my bedroom (having an ottoman made) and 2 chairs recovered. Then found the perfect blue after a search for a few months of the perfect blue stried velvet for my living room. Having pillows done and thinking of a tufted ottoman, love the look. So small steps of progress are indeed being made! I hope to have my first full sample of the chinoiserie for the dining room in the next 10 days and am super excited about that!! Here are a few visuals....
Pardon the wrinkles....you can tell I have been carrying these around for a long long time!
Love this and want to redo my two French chairs in this.....
The silk that came in.....woo hoo!
And the gorgeous living room velvet for pillows and possibly an ottoman (and trims)....
The perfect velvet found at last.......
Close up of the rug.....
Teddy! So many of you are so kind to ask about Mr. Teddy. He is doing well...he is slowing down as he is 9 years old and is a mellow guy to begin with, I always say in my next life I would love to come back as him...he leads a mighty relaxing lifestyle. A little photo sesh of the man himself....
GORGEOUS WALLPAPER. If only I had enough rooms to use every wallpaper I fall in love with. Some I cannot get out of mind and this is one such paper. I am determined to use it somewhere! This one from Pierre Frey I have had my eye on and am thinking of a guest room done in this...what do you think? So pretty, don't you think!
And I would pair it with luxurious ivory bedding and pillows and shams done in this delicate fabric...
I have to say I am loving it.......
Kind of reminds me of this feeling of a bedroom I have long admired-
GORGEOUS TOLE. I as you know, am so excited about the custom tole line I am carrying...it is beyond beautiful. I got in my own pair of custom lamps (going into my bedroom eventually) and have placed other custom orders for customers. Take a look at whats been churned out lately...... to see more of this gorgeous line in my online shop.
My gorgeous lamps....love love love them!
This beautiful pair of lamps......going into a CT. master bedroom, stunning.
And this pair is going into a family room/kitchen area of someone I have been doing e-design with, they were custom colored to match her fabrics
