Viva Terra goodies!

So I get this magazine in the mail, VIVA TERRA, and I typically skim through it quickly before placing it in the recycle pile...but, look what I found: Love the glass balloon vases, they could mix well in traditional and modern interiors. The mugs are just beautiful...and I really love the tealights...starting to see quartz everywhere and the purple is my favorite. Last are the root baskets...I have been using these in client kitchens to hold fresh fruit, etc...(just a heads up - I usually pick them up at HOMEGOODS store for a steal)

Be all there!

A bit of inspiration...

So I am trying to clean out files on the netbook because it is running extremely slow and I came across this lovely picture...I think I pulled it because I have yellow, cream, and taupe in my family/dining room and I was looking for a bit of inspiration to change it up...(I apologize for not knowing the source, please forward that info if you recognize it!)

Friday Feature...a little late!

Look what I found!

Look at what I found in my search for wall paper today... the picture is not crystal clear but I really love this wall paper by Paper Mills...it's obviously called "zebra" in black and white...It is a great pop of pattern and it would be great in any small space! So, back to my search...

Calling all designers!

So, today I am in search of wallpaper...and I am out of the loop on this one because I have not selected wall covering for a residential client in some time! However, I am noticing some really great options out their...so many choices! Here are a few by ROMO...so for all you designers - please tell me about your favorite wall covering options bc I would love to be in the know!!!

Celebrating number 4...

Well, this post is a little dated...we celebrated Olivia's fourth birthday about a week ago and it was lots of fun! I really can't believe she is four...it has gone by so very fast!

This first pic is her look of "surprise" after opening some new cowgirl boots from my mom and dad...This is Liv giving us the "I'm four now!"

This was her entry with dad...who allowed her to slip out of the house with several pieces of my jewelry in tow!!!

It was a great party and she really enjoyed all her friends and family! Here are just a few of the elements from the party...the theme - HORSES...no, not any real ones,

but we did bring along this one which was the hit of the party!

And what is a horse theme party without new boots....and of course a pink tutu!
