PARIS - The gilded age

This room I would NEVER leave!~

A tad to dingy for me-

No?

The bottom right is too much for moi.

The rest I adore!!

Suspended Swinging Beds

elle?

I am fascinated by this concept.

I would love to do it for someone.

Don't you think 

the idea of a swinging bed has an element of fun to it?

{although I would have to take Dramamine i think}

Alsace, France - Petite Venice

You know.....sometimes it is hard to come up with a fab post.

So.....I was surfing around and found a link that sounded intriguing

It all started with this link;

 http://www.francetoday.com/articles/2010/12/21/a_look_at_alsace.html

After I had collected so many pics....

and was saying to myself;

"I am not into this"

but it was too late.

I am on a tight time schedule.

I am at work and trying to attract new design clients. 

This is where the little Venice is.

Gotta' tell ya'....

I am not into October fest!

And this part of France,

 by the lack of perhaps one Village Up-Rising is French 

instead of German.

I am not into COO COO Clocks or German village architecture. 

But ,

I know more than a few of you will like this.

Hey!

Millions go to Disney World every year.

And it doesn't look too different than this.

I know I sound  SNARKY.

I am under a bit of pressure.

I am now wearing my 'nite gard'

during the day to keep from grinding my teeth to smither-reens.

Kidding.

But, I am tense.

SEE!

Doesn't that look like Disney?

Maybe I really should go there.....

it's in wine country.

You think I need some?????

I was all but 'October Fest-ed' out by the google images.

Pray for me!!!

hahahahahah

no really, Pray for me!!

The Serene,The Sublime Alberto Pinto

This will be desert for your blogging eyes......

as my friend Maryanne from

http://beadboardupcountry.blogspot.com/

says....in Paris ....'Fig' is all the rage.

I am taken back with his free spirit...

yet tamed enough to make a room into an art form.

on some lucky big, big, big boat

more yumminess on this big, big boat

This is so me. I love this.

Below is Alberto Pinto's home in Brazil

The textures and color he uses make want to be there.

It is so uncluttered and happy.

Do you have a favorite space 

that this {genius} designer has done?

His work is a surprise.

How great is that???

Don't Quit 5 minutes before the miracle

LOve this room, and the draperies are  right up my alley.

The unusual wood paneling behind the bed is fabulous.

This kitch i love the casement windows, the ceiling, and the view. :)

Maybe you’ve had this experience too…

you’ve waited for something…

you’ve prayed for something to happen…

and it seems like forever…

and you feel like giving up…

God’s timing is better than our timing…

for me...

that is where the faith I have worked so hard on developing

comes into play.

Just when people tell me to throw in the towel,

close the shop, cut your losses,

GET A REAL JOB.

How dare anyone to tell me to give up.

Insensitive, I say. 

This is my real Fu--ing job, and has been all of my life.

I am DIGGING my heals in now!!!

Maybe you've had this experience too…

I had one of those days today...

a customer from an old firm I worked for 

looked me up!

To finish her home.

I am all smiles.

How about you?

Listen to your inner voice.

That inner voice IS DIRECTLY placed inside us from G-d.
