Here's To Living with Style!

We are living in an amazing time.  Not just because we have an African -American President, but because he has such an amazing wife in Michelle.  I really admire Michelle's sense of style.  Her always chic personal style reminds me of an era where taking pride in one's appearance was common place.  This pride was evident not only in how people dressed, but in how they kept their homes as well.  I have fond memories of those times and want to thank Michell for bringing them back.  As the nation is experiencing a revitalization, so is the design industry.  I am excited about the new possibilities!  Now more than ever, people are creating loving, nurturing homes for their friends and families to gather and enjoy.  If you are wondering what you can do.  Stay tuned to my blog.  Here we will discuss not only the techniques that I use when creating award-winning homes, but the history of how we live.  I would love to hear from you. Please submit your questions or comments here.

Design is in the Details!

How many times have you heard 'Design is in the Details?" At verandah Interiors it's not just a saying it's  a way of life.  Join me here weekly as I pick my favorite item of the week.  Here is your chance to see the amazing final touches that I love adding to my designs before calling them done!  This custom drapery hardware is just another way, to make your home special.

Custom Drapery... No One Does it Better!

Oh the Glamour of Custom Drapery!  I could stay here for weeks.  There's just something about a room finished with the best in window treatments. I fawn over that perfect fabric when I come across it. It stays on my mind until I find a project where I can use it.  With so many questions out there about drapery option, I thought, I'd dedicate my first series ( 1-5) on the subject of window treatments.  Email me your rooms and window treatment questions.  Allow me to help you make sense of all of the luxurious details that help make window dressing an art.
