By Invitation Only: Patina


Patina is one of the most amazing things that is created over time.  They try to duplicate it but nothing beats the real thing.  That little chip or scratch that starts the process is so painful but soon it becomes a history that we never want to erase.  When I visit other countries I am always so impressed by the ability to have this patina without looking shabby or completely worn away.  Things have character and I love that.  I am not sure how long it takes, I suppose it is different for each, but I think that they have a special place among our other things and make everything seem real- really part of life not just staged or duplicated.




Please take a moment to stop by and see what the other lovely ladies have to say about the lovely patina!

By Invitation Only: A great challenge

A challenge...  The girls from By invitation only have asked us to write about a challenge for this month's post.  Something to over come possibly something to accomplish.  I think this might be the perfect opportunity to speak up, to get it off my chest so to speak.  I have been writing this little blog for (omg) almost 4 years now and I have felt that it was challenging many times, sometimes a fun challenge but challenging never the less.  I think it may be time for a change, maybe a regroup so to speak.  It has been itching at me since the beginning of the year and I am just now accepting it I think.  I would like to make some changes around here... I know you have changed in the past 4 years and I know that I certainly have, hopefully in good ways!  So I want to add a few things and organize a few things and possibly omit a few things...  I ask you to be patient with me as I work through some changes here on the blog, in hopes of making it better and fuller.

Last year was an amazing year full of projects and wonderful growth for me.  I worked on and completed about 15 projects in a 12 month period, not including my residential clients and my personal projects.  Sometimes that can leave you feeling a little over cooked, if you know what I mean.  I want to make the blog a reflection of what really truly inspires me each and every day not just what I think you are going to want to see, in hopes that it will inspire you too.

By Invitation Only: Daydreamer


There is no need to trade places and I am sure it is no mystery what I would like to do if I could do anything.  Live in Paris, own a beautiful apartment in Paris while I am still young enough to really enjoy it!  I love the idea of a slightly worn exterior with a beautiful interior awaiting a special touch.
 

Beautiful vintage wood floors and molding everywhere!


A sweet little Vespa to run around on...



I would shop all day at the fleas to furnish it with the most fun and beautiful pieces!



I would spend my evenings in beautiful gowns just lounging around and relaxing with friends and family, almost no need to go out!

By Invitation only: Besotted Blog


I first discovered Besotted Blog a while back, I am pretty sure I followed one of her fabulous photos from Pinterest into her shop.  I am a sucker for paper goods, packaging, photography and fonts and it is always so fun to find another person who loves these things too!  I have a few stamps from her line and they are so fantastic (I just ordered the antlers and plan to use them on my holiday packages).  Tristan's blog is so fun, she takes the time to write witty posts with great photos and has completely convinced me to put a calligraphy starter kit on my Christmas list.  

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
