Women at Work
December 17, 2010




Given the opportunity I would tile an entire room... wall, floors, ceiling. Of course it has to be amazing tile and I have been smitten with this Paccha tile from Ann Sacks for quite sometime. I am dying to use it in my own kitchen someday. In the meantime I am combining the exotic old world craftsmanship of these Tabarka Studio tiles with the clean lines of a modern day kitchen in one of my current projects. I am of course drawn to the more graphic patterns. I used a similar more subtle combination to great effect in the Coastal Living Idea Home kitchen that I designed last year.
Ok, it doesn’t take much for me to get my groove on and this song is totally doing it. I can’t stop listening... or dancing. So make sure you have room to move before you play this.
Check out the new issue of Garden & Gun and you will see some amazing creations from a slew of talented folks across the south. A couple of my favorites include my friend and office mate Leigh Magar. I get to see these handmade beauties everyday in her studio downstairs and of course I have one of my own. And I can't wait to get my hands on a bottle of organic Roobie Red Tea from my hometown of Louisville, KY. I was also psyched to find out that my friend, Sid Evans, editor in chief of Garden & Gun, requested to have his new profile picture taken at Enoteca.

My super talented friend Stacey, creator of Perla Anne, photographed her most recent collection of block prints at my house and design*sponge quickly featured them on their blog. The editor at design*sponge asked whose house was in the background and well here we are. Thank you to design*sponge for the great sneak peek. And a big thanks to my dear friends Julia Lynn and Squire Fox for capturing my work so perfectly.
My dear friend and previous client, Carolyn Evans, is about to rock the lives of many married couples with her new book, Forty Beads. It will hit stores in April, but in the meantime check out her just finished book trailer... and notice her sweet digs in the background.
