<\/center>
What color is my kitchen cabinetry?<\/b> This was a custom mixed color, so I am sorry but there is not a “name” I can give you, and then we glazed it subtly with a light taupe glaze.<\/center>

<\/center>
When will my online store be opening?<\/b> I am working on things as we speak and spending a lot of time trying to get it off the ground, am hoping to launch it within the next few weeks, fingers crossed. Orders have been placed and due in but there are many logistics to be worked out. i promise to keep you posted as things roll along!<\/center>

<\/center>
Where did I get my kitchen floors? <\/b>They are french reclaimed limestone and are from Paris Ceramics.<\/center>

Am I happy with my Ilve stove?<\/b> I have gotten a lot of emails…and the answer is yes!! I love it, actually, but in fairness its only been a month and I have yet to explore what this big mama can do, but will keep you posted. Its very user friendly…and a thing of beauty to wake up to!<\/center><\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

Here’s a few odds and ends on the home front….<\/i><\/center>

<\/i><\/center>
Onto other business…… remember when I told you about the fixtures I ordered for my kitchen? They were back ordered for Feb. and now its April. I really liked them so kept the order going then lo and behold I found my beautiful bell jars which I figured I would use temporarily and much to my surprise they looked amazing. But I still have these looming thoughts of the original fixtures and finally I got around to playing a bit on Olioboard and superimposed the fixtures into my kitchen. Now its a pretty lame picture but you get the idea. When you take a look to give me your honest opinion, do what I do…a little squint to get the effect and this way you don’t see all the shoddy details. I really want to know which fixture you prefer. You know I love to hear from you!<\/center>

<\/center>
So first how it looks now…..<\/center><\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
Close up of lantern….<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
Wow that’s even worse than I realized…squint real hard:)<\/a><\/div>\n
Heres a close up of the lantern<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Amazing what a few little lampshades can do to a chandy, don’t you think? Added them to the chandelier in my bedroom and it took on a whole new persona…I loved it before but I really really love it now!<\/center><\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

Did you know Ivanka Trump as in “The Donalds daughter’ designs clothes and just launched a line? Who knew! Is she trying to become the next Tory Burch! She is doing it all<\/i>…clothing, shoes, handbags (didnt’ care for those) and jewlery. What’s next? Some of the pieces are actually quite pretty, classics with a twist…..fun and affordable pieces.

For anyone who watched the Academy Awards, there was no misssing Angelinas mission to make sure she showed “the leg” (yes it has its own identity now) as often as possible….I got this in an email yesterdday and had to share it. Too funny. Who would have thought a single pose could cause so much poking fun!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
OK so this is the pose she struck every time she stood still….<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
And this is the newly “embellished evolved pose”<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
Come on…you know<\/i> its funny!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I know this post was all over the place but as I like to say, life is not a script…just gotta go with what and how you are feeling! Love to hear from you and welcome your thoughts, opinions and comments!! Hope I covered most of what you have asked, if I haven’t already gotten back to you. Have a beautiful day!<\/div>\n
