Enchantment

Have you ever read a book that just transported your whole being somewhere else? Well, The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern did just that for me. The book was written with such magical, imaginative details that my head was spinning from start to finish. Not only did I picture each image as she described it but the smells, textures and wondrous tents filled my artistic brain with adventures of discovery and intrigue. I was taken in, experienced the illusionists artistry, and left with a wanting to go and explore this magical event. Here's how the black and white table looked for my book club, it was by far a lovely, enchanted evening for everyone who attended. Thank you ladies for a wonderful night!

Hello 2012

As the new year begins you are going to be in for a couple surprises on my blog. I wanted to keep with the old (word of the week) but give you something new as well. I have been limiting myself to garden adventures and well, my home is full of wonderful things I think you might enjoy. I will be sharing color palettes, simple table settings as well as seasonal home decor vignettes. I decorate all the time and have an eclectic style so I thought you might be inspired to try them in your surroundings with things you have lying around. So I hope you are willing to explore a new year of adventures, discoveries and artful expressions with me to welcome in 2012 - cheers!
