Hey You! Come and hang out with Miles Redd! This is Miles taking a ride in a planter being taken up to his rooftop garden by a crane! Amazing! You can ask him about it when you see him in New Orleans on Wednesday!

Miles is a nice guy, very friendly and forthcoming.  He even answered my email when I was painting my bedroom Miles Redd Green. You can listen to a great interview with him and the ladies of the Skirted Roundtable.  There is a great article on Miles with an interview and some great styling tips in the Wall Street Journal that I think you will also enjoy.

We all have folders and Pinterest boards stuffed with his images, and I think it would be great to meet him and thank him for sharing his talent and inspiring us.

Chair Audition

Dear Annechovie, You don't know me. I'm a little orange velvet chair, your biggest fan who loves all the portraits of chairs you do. Would you please do one of me? I will sit very still and not talk like Mary McDonald on Million Dollar Decorators.

Are you listening Anne? Can I be your muse?

The Vamp here....I just got a pair of these beauties.

I am inspired by this piece of art by Anne Harwell of Annechovie. So much so that I use it for my business card that she designed. I guess I have a thing for orange chairs!



I also love old French frames on chairs, upholstered in velvet. So the chairs in this perfect French Quarter dollhouse also tickled my fancy.

And I love strong color on a traditional chair. And nobody does it better than Tobi Fairley.

I also just got these cute cute cute boxes of matches from Annechovie! Treat yourself them!
