Brown Paper packages Tied Up With String...These are a Few of My Favorite Things....

I was so excited yesterday when the postman rung my door bell and

left a package on my front stoop.  I couldn't wait to open the box.

Getting a package is soooo exciting, and this just what I needed to

brighten my day and inspire me for my new project....

Don't you love the wrapping....

Inside the package was a signed copy of Giannetti Home's founders

Brooke and Steve Giannetti's new book "Patina Style".  

I have admired their work for a long time.  Their work is timeless!

Here is a description from the book,

"The Giannettis have developed a design style that embraces Patina, the beauty that the passage of time brings to objects in your life."

"Patina Style is a color palette, a romance with subtlety, an attraction to natural materials and architectural details,  and is at once old-world and mildly industrial. Patina Style gives insight into materials choices, methods and treatments that result in spaces that celebrate the beauty in the old, the imperfect and the slightly worn."

I cannot wait to get my work done, so I can sit down and enjoy every page!

I promise you will be mesmerized...
