Black Doors - Elegant & Sexy

I liked these Black Doors so much 

that I used them as my logo on my Portfolio website.

Don't you want to go inside ???

' Classique '

No?

Who doesn't love a dutch door?

or barn doors????

studded black doors

Beautiful even in the snow.

Black doors with black wicker-

This black door with this color combination...

is yummy.

We Can Not Leave Out Black Iron Doors!!!

Hmmmmm?

I am very partial to casement doors and windows -

painted black of course.

I actually want to be behind those casement doors 

and in that very room.

The cobblestone doesn't hurt the situation either.

If only this were my home......

....dreaming again, of living back in NYC

I think this porch is just too fabulous.

Black shutters, black wicker, and a black front door....

how chic!!

This is my favorite picture of a door.

This is my favorite styled door...ever.

And I adore black doors and trim inside the home as well.

I hope you enjoyed this.

I know I did.

When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going

Sometimes I feel like I got caught in the middle of a sh-t storm!!

{and I know I am not alone in this}

This gives me the opportunity to 

get tough,

be tough,

and get going!!!

Do You Remember This Song?
It is so apropos for me right now!!!.

{Because this is a design blog....I feel I have not been posting enough design related items.

So this beautiful staircase and the hallway will work just fine in this post.}

I will be facing a some fierce stairs to climb in the near future.

Oh

but let them be beautiful

{and preferably in Paris-no such luck)

and not too steep.

But if they are....I can STILL TAKE THEM!!

The hardest place to be is IN  THE  HALLWAY

before the next door opens.

I am waiting,

and have no doubt 

 I have my best running shoes on.

Just for today....I am feeling strong.

love to -

you know who you are.

To Whine Or Not To Wine

I have never been to wine country.

Lately I have been living in 'whine' country with my miserable self.

But

I have always wanted to live and ride in the hills of a 'wine country' type area.

They just seem so .....

gorgeous?

I could see myself riding my beautiful  'Hershey'

through these hills.

Wow.

That would be a dream!!!

Is this not amazing?

Do you think they are 'whining' ?

I think not.

I have wanted to go to Portugal {for the tiles}

all my life.

Wouldn't you want to go?

No more whining for me.

I have an interview for a management position at a 

famous and fabulous fabric house

on May 21st.

New Beginnings - Starting Over

New Beginnings & Starting Over

I did however just take a part time job at the consignment store 

that is selling the pieces from my showroom's closing.

You may be sick of me by now.....

I am sick of me,

but 

I am....

Thinking out loud with you;

I am figuring things out....

I am thinking of going back to school for web-design and programming.

{Prez Obama would be proud}

As long as I have my eye sight....{please G-d!!!}

I could do it until I am too old to get around on my own.

I mean...that is about 25 - 30 years away,

but computer technology is not going anywhere!

I try not to project into the future.....{my down fall}

but

that is where a great deal of my fear come from.

Projecting.

If only I could PROJECT positive thoughts instead of negative ones-

 I would have it made in the shade.
