More Marimekko...

Marimekko keeps popping into my life!  This amazing vintage fabric showed up in a shop window that I pass daily.  After a few days of stalking it, I had to make it mine!!  It is 54" square of glorious inspiration!!!  Hope you enjoy it as I do!!

New color combos...

This is rapidly becoming one of my favs.  Here's some new colorways.

Inspiration - Florence Broadhurst

A trip to the museum bookstore reintroduced me to an Australian favorite - Florence Broadhurst.  Her versatile hand which was way ahead of its time is a source of endless inspiration.  Since we are all so very enchanted by the resurgence of wallpaper lately, it is only fitting to review her amazing body of work.  A great read is available on her extraordinary life and has shot to the top of my reading list!  Available here.

Inspiration - Graphic...

I am loving these fun images outside of a new chic chocolate shop (Fran's)!  Never get tired of black white and a pop!

more fun graphic images.  I just love this simplicity of the color stories too.

Surtex NYC...

I'll be showing at Surtex in NYC (May 17-19) this year with my wonderful rep Foliage Inc. (Booths 135 and 137)  Can't make the trip this year myself but, be sure to stop by and check it out!  Now that prep for the show is done, I'll have lots of new things to share here!  :)

Happy Mothers Day...

Happy Mother's Day to the hardest working most special people in the world!  Including my constant inspiration  Miss Sheri!  :)

My oh my Mari...

Okay...I know the new collection has been out for a bit, but I have to take a moment to pay homage to the fab new prints from Marimekko.  I just can't stand it! The color - the print - the graphic nature.  I just heart it and HAD to share!!!

Surface Magazine - color inspiration...

The latest issue of Surface Magazine, the Spring Fashion issue, is bursting with amazing color stories and innovative prints.  The styling is quite amazing as well.  Be sure to pick one up and have a look for yourselves!

Sunday Street market...

A stop by the Sunday Street fair always leads to fun inspiration...

I think I see a new project in my future - mesh, beautiful old frames and a little wire will make a nice place for my earrings....

and all the pretty colors yum...

Daydreamin...

A stop by one of my favorite blogs the Paris apartment got me daydreaming about the day I will have a little place in Paris (preferably in le Marais of course!) et jardin des Tuileries is my backyard!  :)  Have a good weekend!
