Florence Broadhurst Event @ WandR

Thursday night I attended the Florence Broadhurst event hosted by Woodson and Rummerfields.
The author of Florence's new book, Helen O'Neill was there signing books and was sure a pleasure to meet.
More information and pics will be posted on AT-LA.

Pictured above is Jordan Cappella and I - who's Lucite ottomans and chairs were featured at the event.

Sharing some before and afters....

I thought it would be fun to share some of the before and afters from some of my vintage refirbished pieces.
What a difference a little lacquer and upholstery can do!

Inspiration: Santa Monica Office Project

People always ask, "Where do you get your inspiration?" Well it comes from all different places, nature, a magazine, an old book - name it.
But when I got hired to redesign an office for my client in Santa Monica, this Japanese post card said it all!
The reds, the teals and turquoise's with a splash of gold was it.
Above is my inspiration/presentation board and the project should be completed early April.

My home is featured in the April issue of Sunset Magazine

Its my Birthday today!!!

This pic was taken at my old home in Hollywood. I think I was about 6yrs old. I always had big parties with pinatas, clowns, pizza, tons of games and ice cream cake. My traditions have stayed the same except for jello shots got added in somewhere in my 20's and yes the ice cream cake was ordered yesterday.

I am sooo looking forward to celebrating with my friends tonight!

My best friend (at the time) Jen Page to my right in the red dress. We are still in touch and I sent her this image and she totally remembered how much she loved that red dress! My dear cousin Marisa is next to Jen and I just saw her 2 weeks ago in Sacramento.

Global Green Oscar Awards Event

A few weeks ago I was asked to contribute some vintage pieces for the Global Green Academy Awards Event at Avalon.

The chairs pictured above were 99% green. The upholstery was vintage from the 60's (recycled), the batting was 100% organic certified cotton, the foam was 100% recycled certified denim, and the paint was non-toxic from Safecoat.

Above is an image from Bizbash.com from the Avalon.

The chairs are available for purchase through Turquoise.
