All art is subjective. I may not love velvet Elvis tapestries that much – but there are thousands that do. The same impulse that drives someone to purchase a print of the Eiffel tower from Target is the same impulse that drives me to buy a vintage print of the Virgin Mary.
Japanese Vintage
I found this incredible vintage handmade Japanese vase at an estate sale and have been wondering what would look best with its muted colors. I was so excited to get the deep red button Dahlias at the Flower Mart this past week and thought it would be so cheerful mixed with pink ranunculus, clover and orange baby roses. I can’t wait to experiment with new looks!
I Really, Truly, Love My Customers
As the shop is still new to the neighborhood it’s taking a while for folks to come and visit. There are definitely days I wonder if anyone else “gets” my interior design philosophy. It was on such a day this past weekend when I was visited by two customers that had been there once before.
It’s All About the Mood
I am ALL about vignettes. I was looking at a photo album a while back and realized that even as a 15 year old I was setting little scenes in my bedroom. One shelf was my “Rock shelf” where I displayed a Led Zeppelin bandanna as a backdrop for my moccasin suede purse, a leather bracelet and all my little rock and roll collectibles.
