Push beyond tradition...

OMG...my new decorating bible...
by Michele Lalande and Gilles Trillard...
WOW is all I can say!
This is not yo mamma's decorating!!!
This is about elements and vignettes
so if you don't like taxidermy and clutter
you must exit now!

This is one of my favorite shots, serenity
and old light...can you smell the age...

This is not just taxidermy, these are earth elements and history.
People have been honoring animals since the dawn
of time, adding a magical element to their lives.

Old stone walls, white paint on weathered woods...
and light! So what if you don't like the emu...
explore the elements,
open your artistic mind.

Turn the pages of another's book,
feel the history, smell the old,
walk the path of another's world.

Look at this shot...
it totally works, a blue sofa and a green door
AND LIGHT!!!

Element, elements, elements...
and display!

Subtle vignettes celebrating simple or complex.

COLOR SPLASH!!!





A simple vignette can be as awe-inspiring as a Picasso or a Monet...
have fun with decorating, pull out all the stops,
break tradition...
be free!

Right TOT...heh heh!
