Tapestries, textures and tones

A vintage statue, it's position on my kitchen fireplace mantle designates it's important place. A  serene face and colors always calm me. The tones and textures really represent my personal style...

Tan and browns, woven baskets and wood tones are found in my office as well as the kitchen...

what? Yes the dog even has complimentary tones,

plaster and...

the real thing,

Krumpet!

sort papers in leopard binders atop a black cabinet...

MY OFFICE ORGANIZING: PRETTY AND PRACTICAL

How do you organize your home office? 

Is it possible to create a space that looks good and is practical?

Here is how I try to keep my things together...

In a primitive black painted cabinet in my study/ home office, I house things that are for sale on my shops and magazine photos I save for future inspiration.

this is just one storage solution I use,

always looking for other inventive ideas...

do you have any ideas to share?

MY COUNTRY KITCHEN: WILD FLOWERS

What is it about red and white check that is so perfect for summer?

Here in my homestead kitchen, checks perk up my

fav darker tones... 

the brick has been painted white and glazed and all complete...

(sorry for the blurriness)

my next wish is to add wood beams to the ceiling

which is old barn board...

wild flowers from an admirer add a touch of nature,

and lots of red appliances !

hope you enjoyed.
