a creative mint
I am sharing one of my dear friend books with you today. Decorate Workshop:Design and Style Your Space in 8 Creative Steps, is the second fabulous decorating book by Holly Becker of Decor8. I have had the absolute pleasure of knowing Holly for three and a half years now, we have worked, traveled and spent countless hours laughing and chatting together, http://www.zapatillasnike.com.es/ - Zapatillas Nike . She is a fantastic teacher and wow, does Holly ever have an incredible eye for design. She just gets it, design and decorating are innate for her. Decorate Workshop is filled with her unpretentious accessible approach to decorating. An amazing step by step design lesson for you to transform your house into a home that reflects you and your style, http://www.zapatillasnike.com.es/ - Nike Outlet . I can wait to sit down and read through this book again from cover to cover as it is so full of useful and beautiful information.
As I have been photographing this book I cannot help but be inspired for the many craft and design projects I have got going on. Debi is one of my favorite photographers and she is a lovely person. They add such a unique element and help you clearly understand the layout of each space.
Holly home studio and work space looks like just the place I would want to hang out in!
I really enjoyed being included in the Decorate Workshop blog tour that Chronicle Books has organized. I have only featured a couple books on my site and they are ones I love, have read through and want to share with you, http://www.zapatillasnike.com.es/ - Nike España . Great job Holly, BIG cheers from Vancouver Island!!! for visiting me today and I will see you back here soon. Sorry I have been missing from this space for so long. I took the summer (and a couple more months) to focus on my family and various other creative projects. You can see all the things that are interesting me there. Do you use Pinterest? Let me know.
I look forward to being back here and thank you for all your wonderful emails while I was away. I totally appreciated being missed and was quite touched by it. Thank you.
Hello!
I hope you are enjoying your weekend.
It has been a beautiful spring holiday weekend here in Victoria. Clear blue skies and cherry blossoms everywhere! Today I spent three hours on the beach with my family. We enjoyed a picnic lunch and hunted for sea glass. I imagine collecting enough to fill some jars in varying colors. One jar filled with blue glass pieces, another with green glass and one with clear white pieces. I think that the collection of jars could look really pretty on a shelf, don you? I have seen some people collect a tiny bit of sand from various beaches they have visited on holidays. I like the idea of gathering pretty specimens that take you back to a place. hope you enjoy these photographs from my "Color Me Pretty" column in case you missed it a week ago. you back here soon,
