Kitchens Inspired By Conservatories

Look at the shades for the windows and the glass ceiling. There are companies that specialize in shades for this very purpose. 

What a difference these windows that run straight up to the ceiling make in this room. If you can not do more than this ….well, this is fabulous. And if you have a beautiful garden outside, it will make you smile every time you wash a dish.

Right ?

This is obviously a restaurant , but how great would this be added onto the kitchen part of the house ?

If you add a window , or change a window over your kitchen sink ... run in up as close to the ceiling as you can.

This could be done to add a larger eat in area in your kitchen.

You could even do this to bring the outside inside. Get creative. The possibilities are endless.

Do you think that an addition like this, or some part of this idea, would change the way you feel about your kitchen ?

Mirroring With Antiqued Subway Tiles

This is a relatively inexpensive mirrored wall treatment.

The ROSETTES are a must when using mirror tiles.
I think this beveled-subway tile is the absolute bomb! Love.

This looks great, and what a fix this could be for a dull, or ugly wall you wish would disappear. The mirror tiles are antiqued. And there are tiny gold glass rosettes. Don't forget the rosettes.

Clear beveled mirror tiles.


Just a few patterns for you to think about.
If you do something like this pattern ( above) that I have provided for you, on a wall in the living room (or where ever...), just apply the paint of your choice, trim color on the molding, and insert mirror inside the molding. This is a 'guaranteed great' look. 

It solves a problem or two in a big room with a long wall. Place your sofa in the center and blah,blah,blah. You will need less art by doing this, and fine art can be costly. It has always been a great alternative for me.
Above, I mirrored the entire door , and applied the molding over the mirror.
Jockimo has a great selection of antiqued mirror tiles.
If you go to Patricia Gray's blog, you will see Back Painted Glass that was used as a back-splash. Sometimes you can do the exact same thing with the back painted glass ( or tiles) that you could do with mirror. Check It Out.

This is a great mirror and glass site; Jockimo.com

Tell Me A Story

How Big Is Your Imagination ?

Did you take creative writing in school?

Did you ever have an assignment in that class, where your teacher showed you a picture and.....

said " Tell me, what happened in this room ?"  "What do you see ? "

What did happen in that room ? Hmmmm ?

To me, it looks like maybe sex, maybe something sinister - some kind of struggle, or maybe it is just a place where the guests at a party have thrown their coats.

What does it look like to you ? 

Tell Me A Story.

This picture is from a Paris Design Show. I think it is rather clever.
