Veranda's House of Windsor

I don't know about you, but I can't wait for the official unveiling of <a href="http://www.windsorsmithhome.com/">Windsor Smith's</a> latest project. Windsor is one of my very favourite designers (and if you know me, that's a big call), and she's really outdone herself here. In conjunction with <a href="http://www.veranda.com/">Veranda magazine</a>, and assisted by a few of her fabulous designer friends, Windsor has designed the most amazing property - complete with designer stables, gravel entryway, master suite; the ultimate fantasy home. What I wouldn't give to have been there in person at the grand opening....but instead, I'll be content with living vicariously through those who were...<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Custom prints....you choose the colour

Finding artwork to suit your style and colour scheme can be tricky. Often, you'll fall in love with a piece, but the colours don't work, or the size is wrong....you know how it goes. I've just finished some prints for a client, who requested I match them to a paint colour - Benjamin Moore Woodlawn Blue. Of course, the colours may not be <i>exactly</i> the same<i>, </i>but I have to say, I really like the way these have turned out....soft, pretty and in a lovely, green/blue hue:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
