MOSS ECLECTIC: November 2013
http://www.mosseclectic.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 20, 2013. Long absences usually deserve long explanations, but the long and the short is that life has been too busy and too fun, and family and work have taken center stage. In progress projects awaiting rugs and window treatments. In between all the projects, summer came. And turned to cozy fall. And now it's onto the next adventure. I wish could stand still for just a little longer (that's the reason I love photography so much.relishing). Wednesday, November 20, 2013. Celebrating t...

FINDS: 2014 what what?!
http://www.thefindsblog.com/2014/01/2014-what-what.html
Thursday, January 2, 2014. 2014 demands that I blog, because I just realized that I started blogging almost 4 years ago. FOUR YEARS AGO! Anywho, just a few photos to ease us into the new year. I got this photo from a client who came into the shop looking for something above her mantle. I pulled together some blue willow plates we had in the store and did a little arranging of them on the floor. She liked so I sent her home with a blue print and this is what she did:. And I celebrated the new year with th...

MOSS ECLECTIC: October 2014
http://www.mosseclectic.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 10, 2014. Georgia Okeefe inspired aesthetic. I think most people associate Georgia O'Keefe with her flowers, but they only make up a portion of her work. I've been intrigued by her aesthetic ever since I was a pre-teen and visited New Mexico for the first time, where I fell in love with the landscape and the way that she presented the simultaneous warmth and spareness of its beauty. On the recommendation of the lovely Camille of the Vintique Object,. Credits: 1, 2: okeeffe museum. My Pati...

Thursday, March 13, 2014. Still Life 99- potted plants. In the last year, I've done almost no decorating or redecorating in my own home. Plants are the happy exception. These little plants are left over from some unfinished Christmas presents (we were going to make terrariums in masse but as it turned out just a few got completed.sorry friends ;) but the rest have survived with pretty much no water and very little sun in a corner of my office for months!

MOSS ECLECTIC: July 2014
http://www.mosseclectic.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 18, 2014. Before and (mostly) After: a client living room with around the door built-ins. I snapped the "afters" while waiting for photos to be printed, so ignore all the empty frames :) And some of the shelves like that one over the door way were not complete. And since the photo was taken, the 3rd hex table has been returned to its grouping and replaced between the chairs with another side table. BEFORE (this is actually an in progress right after the chairs and hex tables came in):. Thing...

FINDS: August 2013
http://www.thefindsblog.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 27, 2013. Alright I'm going to say something that might make me unpopular, but I didn't hate Miley Cyrus' performance at the VMA's. I mean girlfriend got weird with it, and I could have done without the foam number one hand antics, BUT it was different, and she got us all talking about it, so props. And would you catch me twerking it and motorboating a big butt on stage? Still needs many, many layers added (pillows? But at least I no longer feel like clawing my eyes out when I see this fo...

http://www.thefindsblog.com/2014/02/catching-up.html
Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Things around FINDS have really started to get busy since the first of the year. Last week I had the pleasure of meeting up with Mary Beth Paulson of House of Landor, a new high-end vintage clothing business here in Raleigh. She brought over the most sumptuous, amazing vintage clothing and let me try on (and pose for the camera, though I'm pretty shy in front of it! In a fabulous vintage number. And see all the fab pieces she gets in every single week. I'm thinking I need to h...

Friday, December 13, 2013. Two Makeovers and Yes I know Beyonce Released a Secret Album! Two quick before and afters to share with you today. We never got a chance to discuss the transformation of the 6 faux bamboo and caning chairs currently on sale HERE. Super snooze fest so I knew that this wasn't a "just paint it black or white" situation. So enter my crazy brain which schemed up chartreuse. Think along the lines of:. You know I had been dreaming of black trim. So one night I decided to turn this:.
