Spring Growth

I posted climbers here in October 2011
when I first planted this beauty

get the arched trellis up ASAP


 
earlier in March

I've really  been enjoying the view


 that's flax below the poppy



stripes everywhere!

wish I had more time to relax around the pool

AFTER
 vintage sprinkler and droplets on the penstemon, I love this shot


some poppy's found a spot in front of the vintage cut-out bench. snap dragons from seed


wild salvia is welcome, do you see my interior light
that I re-purposed outside

Ikat to Love

Here I go again.
It's no secret.........I love the pattern of ikat
.
the pattern is so fascinating,nice welting detail here







enthralling contrasts ='s color riot!

good combination-small scale print sheets, large scale ikat coverlet




an ikat evolution-before
after


hand painted ikat.
in my opinion, I would not choose these pulls, they feel a little to chinoiserie for this piece & are overly decorative, they take away from the hand painted detail, great color choice!

stylized ikat from Anthropology



Lamps Plus Giclee shades here
throws here

these are cards,you may write a note on the back
or 
arrange them in a series of small frames or put them under glass on a desk top 
or
