Today I'm feeling inspired by orange decor. With Halloween on the horizon, the shops are full of pumpkins (real and fake!) and orange and black Halloween decorations. The season from now through November seems infused with beautiful tones of orange… from the bright Halloween décor to the Thanksgiving pumpkin pie and sweet potato dishes, as well as the rich fall...

Tapestries at Wedmore Place Hotel Williamsburg Winery

When Natalya S. emailed from Palo Alto, CA, about a very pretty antique Renaissance buffet she bought from us, it had been quite a while since we'd been in touch. In fact, Natalya bought this antique buffet back in August 2011! So I was thrilled that she took the time to send a wonderful photo of it in her home...

Bookshelf: European Designer Decor
This month I'm stepping into the fantasy world of European designer decor for our round-up of interesting books.

Warm Up Your Decor With Copper Accents
I was reading an Elle Decor article called 'Why You Should Decorate With Copper this Year.' The article was actually written a while ago, but as copper has stayed popular for centuries, I don't think it will fall out of fashion favor too fast! The article urges readers to "Try a new metallic this season… It’s a perfect way to...
