Perfect cottage!

This is what I dream about.. A Sunny cottage, fun, swimming, old furniture, white envelope. Everything breathes, and everyone is allowed to live in it marking furniture, scratching the floors, and leaving fingerprints behind. This is true summer living, this is relaxation... Simply White by Benjamin Moore is ideal as per Vincente Wolf. I also like Pearl seed by Pratt and Lambert. Pointing by Farrow and Ball is ideal also as floor paint (oil based) and has this little tinge of ochre (1054 Yonge St
Toronto, ON) ...enjoy!

Hand made balls!

I'm wondering if anyone reads my blog, but in case there are some that do, I'm posting some artwork and decorative arts that inspire me on this winter day!.. Any keen eyed amateur will be able to distinguish the tread among all those photos and it is the reference to snowflakes as well as the reference to colour colours!.. I have said it in the past and will say it again for the few readers that may not be aware, and thats to look at nature very carefully. Look at the trends out there. The repetitions. The shapes and forms..The colours bouncing off of one another! Anyways, enjoy nature watching on this early winter day!!.. Have a fabulous weekend all:)
