Minor Detail - Major Mileage...

Isn't it amazing how a detail as small as a tape trim is able to transform a otherwise plain, simple piece of upholstered furniture into a chic, tailored piece? This is one of the reasons I so love design. The ability to catapult something into another category by adding the slightest improvement. Genius! For those of you who try this out be careful of going too light on the tape if you use it on the seat or in a high traffic area. Your initial love could become your biggest eyesore!


Happy Wednesday!!!...

Sorry for the post delay - I am just back from a magical fall New York City trip and my schedule has been delayed. It was well worth it!

Today I am featuring interior doors and the ability one has to achieve a dramatic impact by focusing on the detail(s) of interior doors. This could happen with a simple coat of paint in a bold or subtle color that ties into the scheme of the room, with some sort of upholstery such as a zebra skin or a leather with nail trim and even a different type of door altogether that will still act as a divider in a passage way, yet gives the impact that normally would need to be achieved through accessories or art. It is the perfect, bold way to make a statement with the space of a standard door making the impact in the height. So, you can either be safe (a.k.a. boring - but old faithful) and paint the interior doors the same color as all the woodwork throughout or if you are feeling a bit adventurous try one of the above examples. I say go against the grain and add the contrast! Fun stuff!


Happy weekend!...

I am taken by the details. End of story. Be it the petal of a flower, the brick pattern at a church, the monogram on a bath towel, a sunrise or the stitch on clothing. Whatever it is I am a sucker for it. I have an immense respect for the people who create details, either solo or as a team. I believe anything that adds beauty to this world is a positive thing and that makes me happy. I am most amazed with the beauty of nature. I am ALWAYS in awe of the breathtaking beauty that surrounds me! Thank you God!


Happy Tuesday!...
