a little glimpse inside







The weekend is over. Two very incredible sales of which I cannot show you pictures today because my little camera finally went kapoot this morning. But I will soon...this week, so I can tell you how nice it was to meet so many amazing designers and artists and wonderful customers too. And to show you the beautiful art I got and other assorted sundries. Until then, here's a little glimpse of my surroundings mostly taken in the Fall when I was a little less busy and my little camera was still alive...{goodbye old friend...}

(p.s. That second picture is my mother and my uncle next to Jim's great-great aunts in Iowa!)

wonderful to see your influence in all the nooks & crannies! I collect rocks with lines too... mostly from F.I. Love that Brooklyn light :-)

Beautiful pictures!

The candied rosemary: Really easy. Boil rosemary in a 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water for about five minutes. Remove and put on a rack to dry (very important, else the sugar clumps) for about an hour. Roll in baker's (superfine) sugar. The post before the one you commented on has a link to Epicurious.com where I found this (it's party of a larger recipe). This stuff is such a pretty winter garnish, but everyone at my dinner last night chewed on theirs and left little sticks on their plates!

what a lovely collection of bits and images. i can see how your surroundings inspire. they cross many materials and styles and histories. this makes me newly aware of my own. i love when that happens!

a new camera is a must on your wish-list.

This peek into your world has me hungry to see more! I'm totally intrigued and in love... I really enjoy how you sprinkle in bits of the natural world in so many of your shots. Your photos always capture something magical and I'll hope for a camera worthy of you skills to replace your old friend.
