how the real people live...

The couple who own this home have been clients of mine for many years.  These slipcovered chairs are the latest addition that we have done to this room.  Rustic finsh and slipcovers allow people to live comfortable in their rooms.
The settee is a piece that we added a while ago, we took out all the carpeting and selected this floor for its warm hues and casual influence.

We added a slipcover that was made from an Indonesian throw,  river reed cover all the windows and finishing touches are the adobe paint on the brick and a new light fixture over the table.

the casual slipcover

There's nothing better than freshening up the house with linen slipcovers.  Laundering them is like fresh sheets on your bed but instead they're in your living room, dining room and maybe on your barstools around your kitchen island.
Chairs like these from Greywood start at $319.00.  Four to six week delivery.

"baby boo"

It is that time of year to wrap yourself up in a throw and have that first cup of coffee in the morning.  And, time for me to go over the hill to Jack Creek Farms and pick up a baby boo or two!

The air is fresh and crisp and the fall is influencing the scenic drive up Old Creek Road.

I love very simple touches of the seasons.

Fall on the coast.

summer at the shop

I don't think I've ever posted  a photo of my library door but it does get a lot of attention by all who stop in!
Meggie stopped by to try out our new "Woufs", dogie beds, from her buddies Dash and Albert with Fresh American.
Almost sold out of our first order of Lauren's pillows!
'It's so serene in your shop" , one customer said this morning!  Success!
I couldn't talk Meggie into staying so I had to find some stand ins;  "The Little Terrier" by Heather Hurley, Water Color , a local artist and a dear sweet friend; and of course Daisy from Dash and Albert's group!

Chairs were parked in there spaces for this beautiful patriotic crowd since Tuesday, July 1 that says that this town and all its welcome visitors take this holiday and this parade seriously.  This girl loves a parade! 
The best and most beautiful float!


summer attractions

Summer's here and my lavender is so happy!
New at Greywood Home and Garden, locally made!
Rosemary Topiary perfect for every kitchen window sill.
New Batik prints!
 Batik is a form of reverse dying, the negative space is blocked with wax then the fabric bolt is dipped in to the dye, it's dried in the sun and the last step is the wax is melted and you have your print.
They're perfect for the relaxed atmosphere at the beach.
