Winged Beauty

May 27, 2020/ Meryl

I’m definitely thinking of beauty and nature these days as the weather warms up and the days grow longer. Enjoy these pretty images and click image for source.

I love this sofa in Interior Designer Emma Carole Paradis home.

The specimens are from an exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History.

Sheffield Interiors Birds and Butterfly Wallpapered space in Schumacher book .PNG

My friend Alison Sheffield a wonderful Interior Designer used Schumacher Birds and Butterfly for a client and Schumacher liked the result so much they included her design in their book: One Hundred Rooms to Know and Love.

This book needs no introduction - it is the John Derian Picture Book.

The green colorway of Fable by Hygge and West is a favorite. The Schumacher Exotic Butterfly pattern is a stunner.

Another image from the Butterfly Biodiversity exhibit at the AMNH from 2018.

Til next time friends I hope you’re keeping well. Sending love!

Currently On My Radar...

In March I shared delightful pattern and pillows - Today I’m sharing accounts that always offer an infusion of brilliant design. I’m sure you’ll want to ogle them too! You’re Welcome!

When I’m not being inspired by Instagram or Reading I’m enjoying programing through You Tube - I am an active watcher with subscriptions to different channels. A few based in design: Architectural Digest, At Charlotte’s House, Quintessence, House & Garden, House & Home, Magnolia, Sarah Richardson. Some museums: American Museum of Natural History, Great Museums and The Met of course. I follow the Christie’s auction house channel which shares so much beauty. The Hello Sunshine channel by Reese Witherspoon, New York Magazine, Wanderlust Travel Videos and I also located a channel that has a ton of the British Gardens - which I’m obsessed with… if this sheltering in place continues into summer I may pick up a trowel! Click the links friends and enjoy!

Would you forward this post to someone - the internet is vast my friends! Take care and continue to be safe! Til next time! xo

Pink Houses

April 15, 2020/ Meryl

Friends I am not shy about my love of pink… over the weekend I painted the stair-hall heading down to the basement Pink Prism with left over paint from last years project. (No, I haven’t been to Home Depot). I know we all need some pretty - so this week I’ve gathered images of buildings that embrace my favorite hue! Click for source. Enjoy!

I have to laugh - Tiny’s is the most popular saved building I have in my IG Pink Album.

Til next time please continue to stay home and stay safe. If you do need to go out please stay 6 feet away from everyone you do not live with and wear a face covering - please wipe everything off before bringing into your home.

Take care. xo
