Bedding Book - Sneek Peak

I'm working like a dog on my new bedding book and it's finally coming together. Writing and illustrating books like this is a herculean task to say the least with thousands of images and thousands more hours of research and drawing. I constantly wonder what I am trying to prove while I am coloring renderings of bed skirts at 2:00 in the morning! The drawings in this book are much more detailed and complicated than my window treatments book and they each take quite a bit more time to complete. Here is a sneak peak of some of the finished renderings. Hope you like them!





Have a Great Weekend.............................................

I'm loving the Asian inspired bedding collection by John Robshaw. His fabrics are contemporary interpretations of classic motifs and they are stunning! Take a look.





Do these mirrored pillows look familiar? I've been seeing them in interiors everywhere. Love them !!!

Style Sisters ?

Is it just me or do all of these style icons look alike? I was browsing through my files and was struck by the resemblance.


Charlotte Moss


Nancy Corzine



Miss Martha


Bunny Williams


Carolina Herrera


I wonder if they are all channeling the spirit of the great Elsie de Wolfe? She seems to have started the trend.


Elsie de Wolfe



If I cut my hair short and sweep it back will I miraculously have more design talent? Will the celebrity clients start calling? Of course I'd have to drop a few (more than a few) pounds and buy some embroidered silk kaftans, Tods flats and a strand of vintage pearls. Then I'll get myself down to glamor shots to pose for my designer power photos. Perhaps I'll break out the leopard throw like Elsie did. I'm going to assume she was wearing a red dress in her B&W photo, that vixen! I think I like the Charlotte Moss pose the best. It reeks of power.

They all have that - yes I am perky and smiling but I can take you out in a second with my little pinkie so don't mess with me look.

Sweet Dreams Has a New Website

The undisputed leader in opulent, over the top, luxury bedding ensembles, Sweet Dreams has a new website ! It is a vast improvement over their original site and shows the majority of their line in large, high res images.



I am just finishing up two bedrooms done with Sweet Dreams product. I will post pictures as soon as they are completed.


No one can combine fabrics and trims the way they do. They've made pillows an art form by utilizing fabrics and trim in new and innovative ways.



Hold on to your wallet though - it's not cheap! To find their products wholesale to the trade see their website. For sale at retail online go to Horchow Collection or Neiman Marcus.
