Crazy Clever


I thought this was brilliant.
Not the fabrics, or the colors, or the light fixtures.....
but the concept.

If you have a really small guest room 
this idea could be taken to a whole new level.

I would do everything differently.
But the model would be the same.

Imagine the possibilities.

What do you think?

Sweet Sweet Middleburg

How I wish I could get up to Middleburg Virginia sooner than later.

If you should get up to the D.C. area,
it's worth the drive.
To ME
Middleburg is absolutely chic in every way.


You can buy a horse farm there.
Or maybe a winery.
But the town itself has oodles of history.


But if you want some place to stay with loads,
and I mean loads of history.
Stay here.
There have been Celebs galore who stayed here.
And that's just in this century.


"Throughout the years, the Inn has been used for many notable events and by many well known people and has remained a popular destination for anyone who seeks a romantic hideaway in the heart of the hunt country. The Jeb Stuart Room, for example, served as the stage for a rare press conference by President Kennedy and as a meeting room for hopeful Democrats hosted by Ambassador Pamela Harriman, a local fox-hunting resident; Elizabeth Taylor often graced the Tap Room both during the courtship and after her marriage to a local gentleman, Senator John Warner; and the lovely and kind Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis frequently stayed at the Inn during fox-hunting holidays each fall. Today, film and music celebrities are often seen in the hotel and dining rooms. "




My hope is that when I go up to see my family in Reston Va.,
in April, I can see a classic hunt.
Red coats and all.
Maybe I will even join in.
Who knows?

If not a hunt ,
some sort of ' eventing ' will fill my heart with joy.





This is my kind of place in every way-
Charm, class, and history.

I may have to dust off my old 'blue blooded' passport ,
just in case I run into an issue.

How about you?
Have you been to Middleburg?
What can you tell me about it?

If I could, this is where I will would be for the weekend.

EMPTY WAREHOUSE. C0483


What a fabulous warehouse!!!
I have been thinking.....
{dangerous stuff }


If I ....
or YOU 
were given this warehouse free and clear,
what would you do with it?

And BTW, it's in France.
Let's say....Paris.


It is in a location that you could walk to anything and every thing.
Which I think would be a great place for a beautiful business.
Dont you?


There is an upstairs for offices or an apartment.
There are 4 floors to this place.

I think a shop filled with some of the outstanding design products that are sold 
by many of our bloggy friends would work. 
No?
And you know who they are out there.
So, lets see... accessories, fine ART, furniture, containers, floral arrangements,  
and a gorgeous design library.
Let's not leave out fabric books and a few key wallpaper books.
Selling all custom fabric items, 
window treats, pillows, upholstered beds, sofas, and bedding.
Anyone drawn to a store like this would be drawn to Interior Design,
everything design, and all things beautiful.
Like us!!

Who wouldn't walk in?

Since I will make the floors a beautiful wood....
there will have to be stunning rugs.
And some of my custom upholstery to sit or lounge on.

Keeping the entire place feeling like a warehouse.
The Palace meets the Industrial Age. 
Maybe.

A paint job, with all the beautiful 'things' 
will make the shop a 'Show Stopper'
In fact that is a great name.

'SHOW STOPPER'

We would pick up clients there.
We could leave design boards out on elegant easels as well.

There would have to be expresso and latte served with croissants and biscotti.
Right?
We could even order in darling stylish lunches when needed.


I think we would have fun and make loads of money :)
Do you want to come?
We would enrich peoples lives just by coming in to the shop.
They would live more beautiful lives 
when their interiors improve, and or become more fabulous.
Everyone would like to be more fabulous.
NO?

I am soooooo ready.

Have any more ideas and improvements to suggest?
Let's hear them.


What do you think?
What would you do?
Want to come long?

Cultivate What Your Critics Don't Like


Listen carefully to first criticisms of your work. 
Note just what it is about your work that critics don't like - 


then cultivate it!!

That's the part of your work that's individual and worth keeping.
Jean Cocteau



Can you think of  better advice for a creative individual?


It takes great courage and confidence of steel to follow through with this advice.
But...think about anyone who is famous probably did (without knowing it), 
or never heard or listened to the critics.
They are unique. No?

I   " 5  fingered "   this quote from Yvette @ In So Many Words

About Renée Finberg

I have been in this business since the age of 22.

I love what I do and cannot imagine my life without Design.

Design Challenges are great.

And because of those challenges

I have imported fine antique pieces from Paris,

Designed and Manufactured Furniture,

Created Fantastic Window Treatments,

And solved all kinds of spatial & architectural issues

With my unique style.

If I can't find it, I create it.

My rooms would make excellent movie sets.

I am a visual, tactile and audio sensitive individual.

Creating is what I live for, not math, not spelling, not science.

Just Great Design.

Just imagine how it would be if each of us,

If only for a few hours of everyday,We could be in a space that is our very own.A place that is exactly the way we want it to be

Surrounded by all the things we wanted to see,

The atmosphere we wanted feel, smell and the sound we wanted to listen to.
