Hammered Metal Kitchen Cabinets
Jean-Louis Deniot claims that he is always trying to achieve something magical. (Architectural Digest) This is quite evident in his interiors. A kitchen with hammered metal cabinets is a truly stylish and unexpected feature. Creating stylish interiors with layer upon layer of refinement and unique décor are Deniot’s trademark.
See more of his work here. Great portfolio!

Well, these cabinets certainly make a statement, don't they?

DIY Versailles Case (Planter Box)
I photographed the first four images from one of my gardening books on container gardening.
Have you ever lusted over a Versailles box? I certainly have. This is a poor man's DIY version that I like a lot.
These photos are full size versions. Click to enlarge so you can read the text easily.
Directions are very simple and easy to understand. Measuring and cutting the wood is the only hard part.
Make one yourself or hire someone to make several. The assembly is simple once you cut all the pieces. Might as well make a large grouping, right?
Want a real one? Get out your checkbook and buy one on this website. Have a great Sunday. xo

Prettiest Kitchen Garden Ever

Wonderful pied-à-terre in Paris
It's for sale too in a beautiful Haussmannian building! Details here. I love the layout, the floors, and especially the views.
I am fine, really! I have been busy polishing silver and brass, cleaning windows and floors, and trying to catch up on inside chores I have been house-blind to because I no longer have any excuses! It's rather overwhelming but I will soldier on and do a little at a time until it's time to start all over again. I have also been busy trying to tie up loose ends with a difficult real estate transaction.
My neighbors across the street captured photo of a bear at their bird feeder several nights ago with a critter cam. Now they aren't feeding the birds and they are keeping their garbage cans locked in the garage. I have noticed more wild life on my property too now that I have no animals. Flocks of wild turkeys and more deer than I've seen in a long time. Not thrilled about the deer and their ticks though. The turkeys are fun when they fan their tail feathers.
Thanks for checking in and worrying about me. xo

Screened Porch with Swing
Today it was almost 80 degrees and tomorrow there will be rain. On Monday snow is in the forecast. BUT spring is in the air. I love this porch, the fan, the brick floor and the swing. via
Have a great weekend. xo

Walls of Green
I have reached the point in my gardening life where I can admire this hedge wall but not want it. I know my limitations.

Fabulous Bathroom with Shelving
This is delightful to look at isn't it? I guess you have to stand in the bathtub to arrange the towels on the shelves, right? I love the acorn shades on the sconces. via
