I had the pleasure of joining the Kitchen and Bath Tribe Chat hosted by Marble Institute the other day. The topic; Designing with Natural Materials. These chats are fun, but also very educational and informative for remodeling and home design. For example a maintenance tip when using natural stone; avoid the 3 As – acid, ammonia and alcohol. I would have never known these three are not good for natural stone.

Another tip is what’s trending! A popular choice these days is a full slab of natural stone for a backsplash instead of tile. Gorgeous and smart, because a solid piece for a backsplash is a lot easier to clean than tile. Am I right or am I right?! Look at this seamless look from Discover Marble – I am in love.

More ideas include American Stonecraft transforming reclaimed fieldstone into a line of slabs for serving, cooking and tabletop accessories. Brilliant and functional!

Then there was this by Brasigran. It’s called Blue Agata – mesmerizing and I would sleep in this kitchen. Seriously, come on… Why must you torture me like this?

There is so much more to see and learn in these chats. Scrolling through the hashtag #KBTribeChat is like looking through a catalog, but with tips and tricks of the best and what’s best for you. Go on – See for yourself!

High Point Market Twitter Preview

Wednesday, March 8, 2017 ~ 6 pm EST/3 pm PST

 

This year Studio M Interior Design and the High Point Market Style Spotters are hosting a preview of new product for the Spring 2017 High Point Market. This preview will take place on twitter as a fun and interactive chat where designers share their curated must-see looks showing at the upcoming spring market.

It’s always a treat to see what designers are bringing to market and I am always wondering “What Were They Thinking,” as you can plainly see is fascinating to me!

In just a few more weeks High Point Market will be here and social media will be filled with some of the most gorgeous, luxurious home furnishings – it will be like a show in itself on social media! I love seeing what the designers are bringing to market. There are so many different designs of colors, textures and lighting!

I don’t get to make it to High Point Market because I have work here that needs my attention. However, some of that work is in the interior design industry so I am always present on social media during market to help promote, cheer on and drool over all the beautiful designs.

So visit and follow me on Twitter and I’ll be happy to tweet your designs into the #HPMkt stream! I hope to see you out there!

If you love interior design then you know about High Point Market. It is the largest furnishings trade show twice a year. It’s a world of color, texture, lighting and designs that make me glow inside! For this gal, not a designer by trade but still the designer of our home, I love to see what’s in store for the coming year!

So if you are an HGTV enthusiast and like anything having to do with interior design and real estate, like myself, then visit #HPMkt on social media April 16th through April 20th and see the upcoming designs and fashions in home furnishings. Hope to see you there!

I love the holidays. The happiness. The cheer. The weather.

I have myself wrapped up in a bunch of projects and I’m having a blast! Hoping I can write a blog showing all my completed projects. Here’s what I’ve been getting myself into…

I found all this ideas on Pinterest – hence the name Happy Holidays Pinspiration! Each image above clicks directly to the site from where I’m drawing my directions, just in case you are interested in any of these projects too! For more ideas I have my eye on for the holidays you can check out the most recent pins on my Pinterest Page!

The ribbon on my tree is done, I’m waiting for the glue on my branches to dry and I’m off to start the dough for the challah bread!

Happy Holidays!
