form of the books provide a constrast in the foreground a david hicks masterpiece from the peak of chic this one certainly has great elements of arrangement and all three planes background middleground and foreground creat highs and lows to give dimension and depth a tablescape that emphasizes varying heights from better homes and gardens via the newhomes blog barbara westbrook interiors the whole arrangement has a great variation in heights with the mirror sconces and all of the items arranged on the console vary some of the textural elements in the tablescape light dark shiny matte curves straight lines another caldwell beebe tablescape the variation in line texture and tone is masterful a high impact tablescape from anne coyle interiors there is a lot going on here but it works for me this tablescape beautifully illustrates the concept of varying textures and lines the final recommendation from sandra tuell s article is a good one use all of these points as guidelines not as rigid rules the most important guideline is to use your own personal treasures things that inspire you to create your own tablescape masterpiece to visit my store quatrefoil design

tablescape monday december 24 2007 merry christmas today is christmas eve it is my favorite day of the year i love the anticipation the excitement the happiness in the air our family tradition is to have a lovely meal over candlelight then go to the family service at church and celebrate the true meaning of the season after church we come home and have dessert in front of the tree then the children get to pick out one gift to open it is such a peaceful wonderful evening this image is from my favorite christmas card this year the friend who sends this card always purchases cards that support a charity and this year s card supports a hospice in her town to me peace and hope are really the heart of the matter the true spirit of christmas it is a theme that is central to so many of the traditional christmas hymns many of which were written in times of war and strife hark the herald angels sing glory to the newborn king peace on earth and mercy mild god and sinners reconciled hark the herald angels sing it came upon a midnight clear that glorious song of old from angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold peace on the earth good will to men from heaven s all gracious king the world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing it came upon a midnight clear i heard the bells on christmas day their old familiar carols play and wild and sweet the words repeat of peace on earth good will to men i heard the bells on christmas day all glory be to god on high and to the earth be peace while shepherds watched their flocks o morning stars together proclaim the holy birth and praises sing to god the king and peace to all on earth o little town of bethlehem o come desire of nations bind in one the hearts of all mankind bid every strife and quarrel cease and fill the world with heaven s peace o come o come emmanuel let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me let there be peace on earth i hope everyone has a peaceful and joyous christmas i would particularly like to extend special thoughts and prayers to all of the military personnel serving our country including my brother who has spent the majority of the past four years in iraq and afghanistan posted by things that inspire at 7 08 am 10 comments labels christmas friday december 21 2007 a magnificent chandelier i spent some time in the mall this week i am finished with my shopping but i love the energy of a mall during the christmas season in one of atlanta s more upscale malls phipps plaza i looked in the window of the new tory burch store the design of the store is really beautiful it is a little jewelbox of orange and gold with mirrored walls and a fireplace in the middle of the store although there were many amazing things for sale my eye was caught by the stunning chandeliers there are two chandeliers in fact one in the front of the store and one in the back on the other side of the fireplace you can see the bottom of the front chandelier in this picture on the other side of the mirrored column is a fireplace and you can see some of the shades of the back chandelier on the far left the shades are trimmed in the same orange the dominates the decor of the store and it is so effective it looks like the dallas store has the same chandelier greenwich apparently has it too i see the shades on the far left of this picture i e mailed the company to see who makes this chandelier but have not heard back yet after all in the busiest selling season of the year responding to a question about the chandeliers in their stores is not really high priority however as soon as i saw the chandeliers i suspected that they are the magnificent nancy corzine balthazar chandelier a friend of mine showed me a picture of this chandelier recently thinking i would like it and she was right so it was gratifying to possibly recognize it in person hopefully i will hear back from the tory burch web site at some point and get confirmation whether my suspicions are correct the balthazar chandelier is very expensive but it is so unique and beautifully crafted edit i found this picture of the tory burch nyc store on the peak of chic blog it gives a better view of the chandelier after seeing the detail in the picture i am not so sure that this is the same chandelier the arms of the burch chandelier are longer and project more i will have to figure this out edit 2 mystery solved but not entirely to my satisfaction i am not sure if they are available to individuals the manufacturer of these chandeliers is garrison rousseau a company in the philipines that crafts custom furniture and does special commissions for companies and individuals such as armani nina campbell holly hunt the four seasons vincente wolf and so on and so on click on

studio part ii one of my readers and the author of one of my favorite blogs brilliant asylum saw my post last week on john singer sargent s studio as she was reading the new copy of w magazine she admired the window in a beautiful london flat featured in an article and recognized that it was the same window that she had seen in my post about sargent s studio according to the w article sargent s former studio on tite street has been converted into a modern residence but the owners retained the footprint of that grand north facing window sargent s studio on tite street 2007 it was purchased by sir evelyn de rothschild and is now a residence what a lovely coincidence i had been planning on a john singer sargent post for a while and just got around to it last week i was not aware of the w magazine article but i am so thrilled to see a current picure of this wonderful and historical piece of london property please check out ba s post and the w magazine article i love it when things come together like this thanks ba for connecting the dots you made my day to subscribe to my blog by email click here to follow my blog on facebook click here to visit my online store click here posted by things that inspire at 11 50 am 3 comments labels art design monday december 17 2007 the fishscale design in the suburbs of atlanta there is a neighborhood that is comprised almost entirely of victorian and queen anne style houses most of which are painted very bright colors these are houses that were built in the 1980s so they are an exaggerated vision of typical victorian style characteristics gingerbread styling intricate filigreed trimwork towers wings wrap around porches steeply pitched roofs with gables fishscale shingles adorn many of these homes years ago i went to a christmas party in this neighborhood and most of the homes were decked out like miniature gingerbread houses with yards full of decorations and lights everywhere unfortunately i do not have a picture of this neighborhood and the holiday traffic in atlanta makes a journey out there a bit impractical a real life gingerbread house in elgin il note the fishscale shingles that form the siding which gives it the characteristic gingerbread look from springsun on flickr couberg ontario a victorian style home with fishscale shingles on the upper fascade the fishscale pattern is very characteristic of homes in the victorian era in shingles and or the siding on the homes it is interesting that many gingerbread houses are often victorian in nature and in fact many victorian houses are often called gingerbread houses i may need to research the link between the two when i have more time but for now it seems reasonable to assume that the extensive details and fairytale nature of the victorian architecture style makes it a good subject matter for a detailed gingerbread house a victorian style gingerbread house complete with a wrap around porch gables and a fishscale roof made with lifesavers from the better homes and gardens website a beautiful gingerbread house with fishscale shingles made out of necco wafers from the crafting jen blog a mall in manila creating a gingerbread masterpiece with fishscale shingles on the roof the fishscale pattern is not as common in furniture but julian chichester mkes a beautiful chest of drawers using this design i have seen this in person and it is striking stone carving with the fishscale design from didyma an ancient temple in what is now turkey from h savill s flickr pictures posted by things that inspire at 7 29 am 14 comments labels architecture tuesday december 11 2007 artists studios part i this is the exterior of a great artist s studio i will give you some clues and see if you can guess the artist s name the studio is located at 31 33 tite street in the chelsea area of london the artist first took a lease on this home in 1885 and it would remain his home the rest of his life the above three pictures are from the artist s studio on tite street the large window in the last picture faces north which is ideal light for many artists as it is pure and not too strong the artist was considered the most accomplished portrait artist of his era he was born in 1856 in italy to american parents so he was an american expatriate even though he lived his entire life in europe he returned to america many times throughout his life usually to paint commissioned portraits and many of his best and most important works are part of american museum collections portrait of madame x 1884 collection of the metropolitan museum of art nyc the portrait of madame x is often considered this artist s best work and it was his personal favorite it caused quite a scandal when it was unveiled at the 1884 paris salon a juried art exhibition for the top artists of the time and received extremely harsh criticism so stinging was the criticism that it was the impetus for the artist s move to london there is a whole story behind this and there are several fictionalized accounts of the story of virginie gautreau the real madame x carnation lily lily rose painted 1885 1886 collection of the tate gallery london this is my favorite painting by this artist it is indescribably beautiful in real life so who is the artist it is john singer sargent 1856 1925 the exterior of the studio in current day an english watercolor artist lives here and occasionally rents out the studio to fellow artists it is here that nelson shanks painted his famous portrait of princess diana in 1994 nelson shanks also painted margaret thatcher at the tite street studio nelson shanks is considered one of the greatest living portrait artists princess diana 1994 painted by nelson shanks at the tite street studio part of a private collection most of the information for this piece came from the john singer sargent virtual gallery please visit this site for much more information on sargent edit brilliant asylum recognized the window from the picture of sargent s studio and realized that she has seen it in the january 2008 issue of w magazine i was not aware of the w magazine article so it was quite a coincidence that i did this post please check out ba s post and the w magazine article i love it when things come together like this thanks ba for connecting the dots you made my day sargent s studio 2007 it was purchased
