This photo came across my desk this morning. A new collection of outdoor furniture by Gloster Furniture. What a fresh new look for Spring!
And the chairs are in several colors
Can’t wait to get outside. And this would be such a lovely place to dine on those grilled burgers.
don’t know what made me think of this. I’m sitting on my bed with my Saturday morning coffee. (I love my Sturday mornings!) and I looked up at my bedroom draperies. No, this is not mine. But I started thinking about drapery details. Weird, huh. anyway, God is in the details. If you look closely, I have a pretty decorative “drop” sewn onto each pleat. It just makes it a little special and a little more custom. Of course, “passementerie” can be expensive. You could skip every other pleat to use less tassel drops. And, it could be tassels, not the hand made “drops”. Those could be found in the local fabric or craft store.
My last word on the cookbook. Our kitchen area was selected as the inside back “flap”.
And here is the description in the book of this very custom kitchen that I designed for a client here in Mississippi.
Detailed Neoclassical Kitchen - designed for the 21st Century
—Ms Barrett’s attention to detail is evident in this traditional kitchen. French Neoclassical elements
are shown in reed and ribbon borders, carved corbels, and lion’s head details. A simple backspash
over the Viking Range is reflected in the basket backsplash over the sink area. In the dining area,
hand blown glass is used in the cabinet doors. The custom hand stained cabinets are designed to be
symmetrical and very functional. For more views of this kitchen, visit the website listed. —
Attention to detail is the name of the game. They also used my project – the breakfast dining area – as the back cov
er. I showed you that area in an earlier blog post. But they used a different angle, I believe. I’ll show it next.
Anyway, it is fun to have it out there. The kitchen I designed is the next page. I’ll send the kitchen design out tomorrow.
I know, very quaint. But I am thrilled. There is one photo of the kitchen design on the layout with my recipe. It has designers from around the South. But I am the only one in Mississippi. I can’t help liking that.
And so elegant! Hubert Le Gall -
Just how much charm can one table have? This is just a hint to what is in store for us – “crazy design”- coming soon.
A quick correction. “Small Stores” will be on Amazon, and other “select bookstores” in about two weeks, as I understand it.
This is a pretty breakfast area that we recently finished. So many special details….
