750 Designer Secrets

750 Designer Secrets..., a great book that's heavy in weight and is full of insights, ideas and pictures...

If you look out at the waves in the ocean or the grains of sand on a beach, it's very calming because you're seeing infinite variations on the same theme.

Not interfering with views is decorating 101.

Sometimes you need to take something away rather than add.

Oooh. I like Barbara Barry's quote! But I don't think we need ONE more book in this casa!

I like the reminder that taking something away can sometimes be more effective than adding. Often de-cluttering needs to be step 1 --especially when you want to create a restful atmosphere!

I would happily sit on those chairs with the pink cushions with that view!

The view is everything, isn't it? Keeping my small den functional without blocking the view is a huge challenge for me.

I wish I had a view, then I would never ever interfere with it.

I love your blog and have been a reader for quote some time!
I live close to the Atlantic Ocean in a pink "cottage" or so I call it. It looks bigger than a cottage but it still has a quaint, wonderful look about it, especially inside.
I really love your home and it's location, too.
Thanks, JolieAnne
