red, white + blue rooms

Patriotic colors can work for interiors without looking 

country-cutesy or like an American flag.

Crisp navy with a single red throw looks fresh in this white based bedroom.

 A red coral motif mixed with stripes in these 
two rooms updates traditional red.

Different patterns of blue on a neutral backdrop 

keeps it from getting too busy.

Navy walls look sharp with red and white contemporary furniture,

keeping this nursery fresh.

happy memorial day weekend!

Opening night at Blossom Time.

flowers, fringe + flow: fun with crepe

May is a month of parties - first communions, graduations, 

memorial day and in my family, lots of birthdays!

A stream of tassels, a few pom pom puffs or streamers in bright colors 

can surely add a festive element to any party this season.

My holiday card from 2001, post September 11.

God Bless America, land that I love.

stand beside her and guide her

through the night with the light from above.

from the mountains to the prairies to the oceans white with foam.

God Bless America, my home sweet home.
