Hello! Hope you are having a wonderful week. Is it really August 1st!!!! I cannot believe it, back to school seems to be in full swing and fall is not far away. Let’s make the most of this last month of summer, because it is now going by really fast.<\/em><\/p>\n

I like to periodically shaare with you life’s happenings as seen through the lesn of my trusty little iphone. I have to say it takes pretty amazing pictures and I love that it kind of tells a story all on its own. So here is life in the last two weeks or so-<\/p>\n

___________________________<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Coming home from a farm stop, my purse and sunflowers:) Some of you noticed this bag in another picture and asked where it was from. I got it from Ferragamo in Lake Como, Italy. Do not think it was offered here but not sure…all I know is I love it and it’s even more special since it’s from Lake Como:)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Love getting giant fresh sunflowers! Here made two arrangements, one for me and one to take to someones house for dinner<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Set this table with my most favorite mini silver tabletop lamps, we will get more in time for the holidays (in Sept will get another shipment) These work with votives and have a special shade with a ring which sits on top of the glass votive.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Added these pretty little jars with fresh cut hydrangeas to my powder room<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My new favorite fragrance, Rose de Grasse from Aerin, it is heaven!!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Took a picture of my dining room to show a new client my window treatments, she wants to do something similiar. I love the simple taffeta billowy panels with a wide Samuel and Son velvet tape\/trim on the leading edge, a classic and timeless look<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Busy day at the office getting orders out from the newly arrived and long awaited original blue and white melamine that was sold out<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Bought these incredible hydrangeas in the Hamptons…aren’t they magnificent!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I like my ivory\/gold Staffordshire dogs with this arrangement<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

B\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Was sourcing some lighting for a client and found these two beauties! Left is Edward Fields and right are Ralph Lauren sconces<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

How fabulous is this trim from Clarence House!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Love any excuse to set a table with my chargers and mini silver table lamps<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Stunning display of tapes all in my favorite color combo from Schumacher<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When I go to someones house and take my guacamole, found this is the best way to do it. I get all the ingredients and put them in a bowl but don’t actually make the guac. The avocados are ready to scoop out but don’t do it until I get there. By squeezing a good spray of lime juice over them keeps them green until ready to make! Also made my bruschetta, ones of the easiest and most delicious appetizers if you ask me (with or without bread)!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Isn’t this a beautiful view (sister in. laws home) it is so peaceful!<\/p>\n

\\\"\"<\/p>\n

My NY design project is starting to really come along and is turning out so beautifully. Working on window treatments, pillows and accessories now as we wait for the last of the furniture to arrive<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So love these newly reupholstered chairs in Scalamandre and these fabulous pillows we had made<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The antique console is getting installed…it is so perfect for the space!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Library carpet got installed, cannot wait to see this gorgeous lacquered room furnished, it is really spectacular<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Love the rug (Ralph Lauren) and this fabulous cocktail ottoman from Century<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

About a year ago a dealer who dealt with authentic Venetian mirrors was closing his business after being there many years. I had the opportunity to but 6 of these beauties at unbelieving pricing. I have stored them knowing I would use them for myself or for clients. Just unwrapped a few as we will use one for my clients dining room…forgot how gorgeous they are!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My shrine aka hallway of blue and white…always changing but always has blue and white to enjoy:)<\/p>\n

___________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n
