Have you adjusted to the time change?

I changed mine at midnight Saturday. loved the glow in my living room so ran to get my  camera and started snapping pictures.

Ever since I started blogging I am always snapping pics. 

Ok, I was like that before too...

RICH DECOR : A EUROPEAN ESSENCE

Lovely thoughts of the holidays still linger... 

Warmth radiates from this golden dining room.  Loving the combination of European antiquities,  rich yet simplistically perfect.

Will be striving to bring this essence to my interior design work for clients this year.

Juxtaposition

Another photo in the Kewpie series, a charming bisque necklace on an antique ceiling tin, could it be more vintaged chic! Love the contrast of the smooth ceramic against the aged and rusty tin.

Paris Flea Market Bedroom

Thought I would post another photo of my bedroom the bunny rabbit jar paper mache jar was photographed in. I love things that are a bit worn and show their age. Love to go to auctions, flea markets and yard sales looking for treasures. Cannot wait for spring! My decorating style is Paris Flea market meets primitive and Shabby Chic!
