I just finished painting the “Paris Apartment” in our Little Paris shop…
it’s a beautiful shade of pink called Cotton Candy!
If you ever told me i’d be painting pink walls in any room of mine – I’d have laughed….
but yes people can change and adapt. I really love it.
Here’s some pink inspiration for you!

Yes I am truly loving the pink!!!
So now two rooms of Little Paris are on their way to completion….
Happy Father’s Day all.

Yesterday we got in a large shipment of artwork….
here’s a pretty piece that would fit right into our Little Paris shop….
These next several pieces are all very Whistling Elk….very tuscan – rich colors – warm and cozy…
This pretty picture is a favorite already….it will be hard to part with it!
And i usually dont buy art featuring people!
Switching gears a little – here are some smaller pictures exquisitely framed….great for little groupings with other architectural details mixed in
The two pictures following are amazing – they are 4′ x 6′ – very impressive!
They make you feel like you are right there on the patio!
There is more but you will have to come and see!

So i just finished priming the walls of the Paris Boudoir!
This brings Little Paris a step closer to opening day. Painting is great therapy…
you can think about anything you want and get the job done at the same time
with very satisfying results.
Now I have the final coat of ADAGIO on – if I was in love with this color before NOW i am over the top!
It’s beautiful, soft, inviting, soothing and the perfect backdrop for the furnishings
set to go into the Paris Boudoir.
The mantel too is ready for gilding and for the appliques that will be strategically placed on it. Tomorrow.
Dont you just love the little red cup…I guess painting is thirsty work!
Benjamin Moore’s Adagio is greyer when well lit by daylight and bluer in the evening when the sun sets. A very
adapatable color. Enjoy your Sunday – I’ll be painting later after closing…

I found a beautiful vintage dressing table…
it turned up a little early but i just had to have it for Little Paris!
It’s such a pretty creamy yellow…with gold trim. And the mirror is amazing!
Of course we displayed out favorite perfumes from Shelley Kyle on it.
It’s going to be gorgeous in our Paris Boudoir…which i just primed yesterday.
I plan on finishing up the general painting early next week.

Yesterday I was out shopping for antiques and ran into the most gorgeous babbling brook! It was so pretty and
refreshing and made the greatest rushing sounds….lovely
I found some great pieces for Little Paris too…and have some decisions to make about a few larger pieces of furniture.
Some of the small pieces follow…hardware, books and a great compote.
