Obsession: Dinner settings...

It was great to have Easter dinner with a group of friends... we laughed, shared stories and relived memories... sitting at the restaurant, I imagined the type of setting I would have created for the gathering... enjoy!!!

Obsession: Updating home decor...

My weekend started with the not so pleasant task of cleaning my apartment ... along the way came the desire to redecorate... I moved one rug from one room to another... my mercury glass lion that graced the living room found a new home in the foyer... after some more styling that included rearranging and editing; with a few ideas of what I needed and with a budget in mind,  I hit some stores... by relocating a few items and adding some fresh accessories, I can now come home to something "new"... happy Monday!!!

Obsession: Decorating with plates...

Covering a bare wall in a cascade of decorative plates is a wonderful addition in any room... black and white patterns mixed with solid white plates set against a dark wall makes a dramatic impact... 

Looking for a less traditional take on kitchen backsplash, a friend of mine has decided to decorate his kitchen space with beautiful Fornasetti decorative plates... while his collecting has just begun, here are a few photos to inspire... happy Monday!!!
