in the details...


Great design is all about the details.
My assistant Tera and I were looking at the December issue House Beautiful the other day. We both decided tortoise trim is fabulous. This trim is actually a piece of bamboo sliced in half and applied to the wall as a molding detail. Brilliant.

Grosgrain ribbon is an inexpensive way to add interest. Time consuming but well worth it. I'd recommend trying this is a small entry or powder room.
