Blackout Bedroom

Occasionally, when working with a client on one project, we will spot a fabric for another project.

This gorgeous grey fabric with a geometric stripe woven in caught our eye and knew it would be perfect for the master bedroom. The husband wanted "blackout curtains" so he could sleep late and not be bothered by the sun peeping in.

But there were so many windows in this bedroom plus sitting room and the lovely fabric was a bit expensive for long drapery panels everywhere.

We hit on this idea of traversing drapes on the back windows and Roman shades on the side windows and in the sitting room. (Actually, it was the mother-in-law who thought of this!)

The custom made pillows in shades of grey, cream and gold were the finishing touch!

I love the mix of masculine and feminine. But mostly I love the fact that the husband thinks he's going to sleep in!  These clients have a newborn baby!!

Winter Musings

All this winter weather has us thinking about getting away. . .  

Do these palm trees 🌴🌴make you want to take off for the Caribbean or Hawaii?  

Or perhaps a jaunt to their place of inspiration,  New York City? 🍎  

Vervain does it again with a fabulous collection with fabrics inspired by 

The New York Botanical Garden

and is shown in Aqua Citrine.

How easily we are distracted by baubles, sequins, 
and shine, especially at this 

wonderful,

sparkly time of year!

Sophisticated gold and cherry tones have us swooning and looking for more places to decorate.  Wouldn't this make a lovely holiday tablecloth?
