Summer entertaining starts now

Summer entertaining starts now

Image via: Pinterest   Long days, warm evenings, and time to catchup with friends over leisurely meals on the patio. These are some of my favorite things about summer. There’s something magical about long evenings spent catching up with friends over glasses of chilled white wine and casual dinners; under a dusky sky with the fairy lights just starting to twinkle. It feels romantic and carefree, the way summer should feel. With summer entertaining getting underway here in Seattle I thought I’d share a few tips for setting up your outdoor space as well as my  current favorites for dining…

A Taste of Morocco

A Taste of Morocco

I love the start of a new project. Especially when the project is with a past client. And this client in particular was so much fun last time that I’m really looking forward to working with her again. She just purchased a new home and this time we’re starting with her outdoor living area and will work our way indoors. The outdoor area is a blank slate, literally. The builder finished her side and backyard with a load of gravel. That’s it! So with nothing to hinder her imagination she’s decided she wants a Moroccan inspired backyard escape. Her wish list…

Out Of Town

Out Of Town

I hope you had a relaxing 3-day weekend. We spent the weekend in my happy place – Port Townsend. It’s a fun, laid-back, town on the northeastern most tip of the Olympic Peninsula. It boasts the largest collection of Victorian era homes north of San Francisco. It’s the perfect place to hangout and do nothing or do everything.   I discovered a new shop in downtown Port Townsend called Bubble N Squeak (love the name).  And the proprietress, Dawn Mohrbacher, is as nice as she is passionate about what she is doing. It’s a great shop full of odd, interesting, and fabulous finds…
