Your Guide For Stylish Living
I recently came across the design portfolio of designer Kirsten Marie and was immediately taken by the beautiful spaces she designs. Many of the homes she’s decorated speak to my personal design style which I identify as eclectic glam with a twist. Every space she has designed is the perfect mix of vintage and modern with an unexpected detail or pop of color that adds a distinct personality.
Kirsten is a California designer who stumbled into the design world but based on her incredible talent she was obviously meant to be a designer.

Hi there! I hope you enjoyed the post on the trends I spotted at the Atlanta Gift & Home Furnishing show last weekend. Today I’m back to share something else from the show–books!
Checking out all of the soon-to-be published interior design books at market is one of my favorite things to do. And this market did not disappoint.
Here’s a round-up of my favorite design books that will be released in the first quarter of 2015!
No design library is complete without Barclay Butera!
If you read the blog Subtle Revelry (and you should) you’ll definitely want to get Materially Crafted written by Victoria, the creator of that blog.
India Hicks is a design icon and creates some of the most beautiful tropical inspired space. This book is filled with lots of design ideas you can use in the city too.
Another design icon, Barbara Westbrook is coming out with a book entitled Gracious Rooms. And every page is just that, photos of beautifully designed and gracious rooms.
Since I love shopping at flea markets, I’m excited about this book, Flea Market Secrets! It’s filled with shopping sources and shopping tips to turn you into a thrift market pro!
Bohemian style is really popular right now and this book provides lots of design inspiration if this is your design style. I love it for the creative and unique accessorizing ideas.
And the book that I am most EXCITED about is Modern Mix by Eddie Ross. I’m sure all of your know Eddie and love his style as much and I do. I’d give anything just to spend a day with him but until that happens I’ll be spending lots of time pouring over is his.
Great inspiration is at your fingertips!

Have you ever been asked the question “what famous person would you like to have dinner with?” I have and my list of names includes a handful of people, one of which has inspired me in design and in life.
The first person on my list, Oprah, needs no explanation and I am grateful to her for giving the second person on my list the design opportunity of his life and making me aware of him.

I am constantly amazed at the talent that some people posses. Those people who the can find creativity in the most unusual places and turn totally functional and mundane items into amazing works of art. Have you ever looked at a dryer duct in the hardware store and thought to yourself, I can turn that into something magnificent? What about gutter guards? Have those ever been on your DIY project supply list?
Recently I had the pleasure of meeting Jessica, one of my blog readers and fellow Atlantan who just so happens to have the ability to look at dryer ducts and gutter guards and envision beautiful wall art and light fixtures. From her creative vision comes amazing hand-crafted Signature Piecez.
These beautiful wall décor piece are crafted from dryer vent and are really dynamic on a wall. I think the red or silver version would be a fun twist on a traditional Christmas wreath look.
Jessica makes a lot of commissioned pieces like this large art canvas which again is crafted from dryer vent.
Who knew gutter guards could be so chic?!
This table setting and chair décor was created for a local event, To Live and Dine.
One of my favorite pieces…tissue paper chandelier.
By day Jessica is an accountant but after hours she can be found walking the aisles of the hardware store looking for her next source of inspiration.
