SC is just finished preparing my Socialites and Valentines Day notes for newspaper. Can't wait to share the article! I came up with truly brilliant gift ides.
Mainly I'm obsessed with my house right now. I've lived here for 8 years and it's time to do some redecorating! So I called my long time friend Barrie Spang over in Cleveland as I only trust her to pick out my wall paper. What do you think?
I don't know the brand but Barrie knows I'm obsessed with Scalamandre. It's a preppy toile with a beach home twist, since I live at the shore. BOATS! I'm going to do the entrance in the yellow and the neutral one in my powder room. Do you love? Then I'm going to have A Socialites at the shore ladies who lunch party. I'm so excited. Happy 1/2 birthday to moi!
The Philadelphia Home Show is in town this weekend. And I'll be visiting the ever so glam gutter guys (we have gutter and roof issues, I know not as fun as wallpaper but still a must). You can check them out here click
XOXO

Love the wallpaper! How can it get any better than boats and TOILE? They will be lovely in your home.

I love it! SUPER FABULOUS!
ReplyDeleteMy wife mentioned something about heading over to the home show. We did the gutter things six years ago. The mrs decided on an aged copper thing with the guard so I didn't have to go on the roof to clean them. The best thing is with the lifetime guarantee when ever the wind has caused havoc on them I just call them up and they fix them. Have fun at the show I think I'll be working late in order to avoid.
ReplyDeleteGutter guards are the way to go. That was one of our first exciting purchases, along with new shingles, when we bought this house almost 13 years ago. And I love the toile. There's a company that also does "local" toiles, like scenes from New Orleans, New York, etc. but I'm not sure where I saw it because it's been awhile. Possibly an old issue of Traditional Home.
ReplyDeleteLove decorating...love toile...love you! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that wall paper! So perfectly preppy!
ReplyDeleteOoo, love the toile with a seaside theme! I'm sure it will look gorgeous in your house. Be sure to show pics of the final product!

ReplyDeleteLove to decorate - starting our guest bathroom with a beach theme - bought a poster of the Huntington Beach pier in CA (near our Home) about 3 years ago with the intent to do our bathroom and well you just motivated me.. at least for today....lol I like the boats...
