Design in general "Inspires" me.
I am inspired everywhere I go
I am inspired everywhere I go
and by everything I see!
Usually while I'm browsing through a magazine, something will catch my eye. It can be an entire room or something as small.... as a dish!
This space immediately reminded me of our star Christmas pieces! They were in sad shape, but after MC gave them a new life with a little gold paint....look....
STARS
Two chandeliers caught my eye during this past year.

Jan is also known for her beautiful Murano Glass lamps.
One of my treasures is a Tiffany vase that was converted into a lamp. The vase is from the late 1890's and my Great-Grandmother had a lamp made from it during the period when electricity was the LATEST! Little did she realize she was destroying the integrity of the piece! We updated the base and the shade and look what we achieved!!!
When the natural light shines through the beautiful Tiffany glass it is amazing!
