CATCH-UP


I hope that you had a good weekend! I am a little behind as I was out of town and am now trying to play catch-up with correspondence and work on a large scale commission that's due soon!
I love this room by designer Tracey Garet. the colors are great and that velvet sofa is calling me....looks to me like a perfect place to spend a few hours devouring some design books and my favorite magazines.

    Dear Anne .. I know what you mean about catch-up! I always feel like I am chasing my tail trying to keep all the balls in the air! Your beautiful pieces are being framed at the moment and I will be doing a post soon! Have a lovely Monday!

    Hi Anne! I hope you had a great weekend! I love this room too! I love the dark wood shelves with all of the colorful books and fun accessories. It's also such a fun touch to add a picture to a bookshelf. I would never have thought of that. What a lovely room!

    I love this room, before I read designer I was thinking this is the warmest room ever...what a way to deal with the black bookcase...yellow sofa and orange planter...I am off to a store now to find something like that because I am tired of our black bookcase. Have a lovely week Anne! xo

    I love it too! I also really like when art is hung with books as a backdrop...and that spot of pink is also fun!
    Have a great week,

    The sofa is very appealing, I love the color, so cheerful but at the same time subdued.

    This is one of the images that inspired me to do my bookshelves in the way I did. :)

    How gorgeous! I would LOVE a room like that, such a 'switch-off', 'me-time' realm where you could get lost for hours! The sofa looks endearingly comfortable too! City Girl x

    Awesome bookshelves! Love how they've hung the art and played with depth/perspective there.
