layered love

Adding elements to a room can start with your floor... I love seeing texture and color in a room from the ground up.  
Working with clients that love to experiment always makes me happy... Have fun with design. Don't always add just 1 rug... Add 2!
Working with older rugs... 
Especially Persians can be a great conversation starter.{oh my where did you get this? how old is this rug? love the colors... etc.!} Layering adds warmth to a room as well. Having a flat room can be boring! 

Just try it... You might like it!

calm

I found all these images last night... Which brought a sense of calmness to me. We always need more of that in our lives.  To be honest with you all I really want to do is walk inside that home & take a nap.

Do you?

come fly away with me...

Good morning everyone! 
Can you hear the birds chirping? 
Shhhh I sure can! {smile}

I would love to show you some fabulous ways you can display bird prints in your home...
 In your entry over a bench... No bird droppings here! 

Gracefully over your fireplace in your master bedroom or living room. 
In a bathroom... 
Up your staircase...

Ahhh Now you hear the birds chirping loud and clear!
We've stocked up on bird prints to share with you all at the rustic rooster. 



 Stop by to see our birds! 
I'm sure they would look fabulous on your walls. 

* Please note * 
Our birds are clean and quiet!
