Arts & Crafts Style class

 

 

Yesterday  my  "Arts & Crafts Style on the Cheap" was held at the Roycroft Copper Shop. It was a great morning. Attendees came from the Buffalo area but also from Washington DC and Canada’s Niagara-on-the-Lake.

Attendees learned lots of tips for developing the mission or arts & crafts style for their homes. One section was about "if you can only afford one item for that room" what should that be. Sound like a presentation you would like? Stay tuned for when this class is offered next.

Decorating with vacation finds

 

 

I hope this long winter has you dreaming and planning of a sunny vacation spot. If you are lucky enough to go someplace warm this winter, be sure to bring back seashells or seaglass. These treasures make excellent decorating  pieces. They help to personalize your home and they are free!

Arts & Crafts (Mission) Style Class

I am excited to announce I will be teaching a class in a couple weeks called Arts and Crafts Style on the Cheap.

It will be held Saturday morning February 27, 2010 at the Roycroft Campus, East Aurora NY (about 20 miles outside of Buffalo, NY)

You will learn the elements of the Arts & Crafts style including color palette, furniture details, and how to accessorize. Because this can be an expensive style to decorate in, I will show you tricks to get a love mission styled home without  spending a lot.

Reservation are required. For more information and to register for the class go to: Roycroft Campus

I can’t wait to see you there. Be sure to bring your questions and photos of your room in progress

Jane Austen says it well

Nothing like being inside on a cold winter day to apprecate this quote by Jane Austen:

"There’s nothing like staying home for real comfort"
