ONE BOOK YOU CAN INDEED JUDGE BY THE COVER....

Who says you can't judge a book by its cover? Well.....maybe you shouldn't, but in this case we have an exception to the rule. How stunning is he? It was on my long list of must have cocktail table books. But, CHECK....I received it for Christmas this year from a sweet boy. The inside is just as pleasing too, as the out. So, go get it folks! Make sure to place him face up on top of the stack. He's way to handsome to not be seen.

St. Tropez me.....

What would you do with this chic piece of textile? If you must ask, to me it belongs on pillows placed in STARK WHITE outdoor lounge chairs or a sofa. It just might be my favorite pattern/colors for this summer season. It's both indoor and outdoor fabric....that's right I said it. BOTH = INDOOR & OUTDOOR. Where would you put it?

WATER IS A PRECIOUS RESOURCE......USE IT WISELY.

Anyone ever notice plumbing fixtures? Currently working in the bath/kitchen field of design....COMPLETELY different from fabrics and furniture, I have begun to notice the "hardware" instead of the "software" of the home. And, now I never enter a space without focusing my eyeballs on the shiny or satin disposals of water. Once you start to notice, it becomes a habit....trust me! And, when dealing with bath fixtures everyday you began to dream of them....and dreaming of them......makes me daydream of these exquisite pieces of jewelry. The spouts and handles are interchangeable, and the finishes are endless. Which one do you like best?
