Hiring the right person for the job is essential to good design

As a child I remember “helping” my dad with a project.  He asked me to stir the can of paint he just opened so I grabbed a nearby screwdriver and began to stir.  My father (the left-brained engineer) was horrified and the look on his face was so dire that I jumped away from the […]

Tips to get cozy

Cozy Vermont Bedroom

The past few years the Danish concept of hygge (pronounced hewgah) has appeared in many of my design and shelter magazines.  This idea, which I love, is about creating an environment that fosters well-being through coziness, ease, conviviality and candlelight.  In fact, candlelight is almost a prerequisite because hygge, at its core, is defined as […]

Good design takes time…. and knowledge

Interior Designer Vermont

I was cleaning out my electronic files and stumbled across this photograph I took last summer.  It’s a close-up of the ladies room floor at the New York Mets’ Citi Field baseball stadium. Glamorous, I know. I took the photograph because I noticed that the designers used the Mets’ logo colors for the floor.  It […]

Equestrian Decorating

Summer hydrangeas

A neighbor has the most amazing blue hydrangeas in her yard.  We’re dog-sitting a 5 month old bulldog, which means we’re walking more, so I’m able to admire them often. Hydrangeas are the quintessential summer flower, aren’t they?  During my wedding-planning days, many August brides used this bright summer flower in bouquets and centerpieces. I […]

Selecting the RIGHT paint color

Did you know that 40% of the paint sold in the United States is to correct PREVIOUS color mistakes? Yep. It’s true. A common error people make is selecting the paint color first and then making decisions about the remainder of the room. Although I ALWAYS recommend paint color last, this isn’t always possible. For […]

And the winner is…..

Pantone announced that Tangerine Tango (17-1463) is the 2012 color of the year.  I noticed the color popping up the past few months so I’m not surprised. I love the black trim they used to define the walls.   A simple way to incorporate a splash of color.  Plus, I LOVE the oil paintings of the pooch.   Very classic. Think Tangerine Tango is […]
