A washed white of summer is what my home contributes these days.
Unexpected clippings with the leaves capturing the day.

Shades of the SEA...Sea dream catchers.
Entangled, caught and trapped from the sea.
My imaginative dream catchers are created with hands that gather from
the sea.
Intertwined wire with crusted sea foam capturing quiet dreams from
the deep sea.
A Storied Sea
Dreams that gather deep from the sea, oyster shells, sea pearls,
fisherman's netting all entangled in wire from the open sea.
Pieces of sea serenity can always be added to a
sea dream catcher
" Tied to the sea"
Sweet sea dreams dot the shores.

Living an
AUTHENTIC
LIFE
by Dore Callaway
On the fringe of life, I found myself being the curator to
what was unfolding within me and in my design life. One
morning in January of 2010, I awoke to an encouraging,
meaningful quote by George Bernard Shaw: "Life isn't
about finding yourself, Life is about creating yourself."
Somerset Life magazine feature...
Pages 36-45
It's The rustic AND
romantic MIX THAT CREATES
A well-loved home.
Everything I bring into my Southern California home calls out
in flaws through design artistry, hinting at the history; it makes
for an inspiring place.
I am proud of my home and its authentic
French countryside spirit.
I embrace a dusty pale palette of
darker shades of white influenced by distressed, tarnished, and
gently tattered remnants and objects.
I use my imagination to see that no object is hopeless if
looked at with vision and purpose.
Thank You
SOMERSET LIFE
Magazine
For joying my days ahead.

A French Bedroom...Simplicity In Rustic Elegance
Burlap Luxe Living
In French style.
A country bedroom should feel airy with open space.
Giving this small French style bedroom a paleness
of touch.
A French bedroom is always distinctive of its simplicity.
An important piece in a French bedroom is the bed, never
allowing it to take over the room.
The French mirror plays a role in opening up the size
of the rooms small space.
Placed over a favorite chest of drawers to reflect the
bed and the accented decorative pieces.
Mirrors are used in every room reflecting the light into
its space adding an open airy feel to a room.
In the case with my smaller room.
vintage Sawhorse
I turned an old carpenters sawhorse into
a bedside table by adding a planked surface and
trimming if off for rustic rural country feel.
The French use of pieces once used with another
function are often never discarded in a French
home.
When and item loses its usefulness,
its again admired as decorative.
Inspiring
Spaces.
