Friday again...


  Wow what a week!  I hope you accomplished everything you set out to do!

There was a lot of running around here and I am not sure I actually completed too many things but any type of progress is always good.  I feel for these sweet blossoms on our tree this week.  With rain coming I cut a few branches to bring inside and enjoy.

The Shop by H. Bleu



Yesterday I had a chance to go up to Venice (I have lived in California all my life and never been to Venice, Ca.  I have been to Venice, Italy though - weird huh) to meet with Susan from H. Bleu.  Susan is creating a custom wall treatment or art piece for me in a project that I am working on, I am so excited!  Her shop was so fun and creative, she is super talented and has a love for all things vintage.   We had a chance to chat, which is my favorite thing to do with creative people, I could go on for hours.  Susan was also nice enough to direct me to a cute neighborhood where I could get some lunch and shop.... more on that coming next week.









This is the style of the piece she is making for me - I cannot wait to see mine in the space!  One of my favorite things about design is being able to work with people who can make what is in my head part of real life.  There are so many talented artists and designers out there and I so enjoy a collaboration like this.




Visit H. Bleu here to see more about Susan and The Shop!

Off course...

 We have been busy at work here while the holidays are going on all around us.  This is a little peek at the project we just installed on Tuesday.  It is always nice to see it come to life when all of the pieces come together.

Wishing you a wonderful Thursday!  We have another install today- wish me luck!

Thanksgiving.. happy



We are celebrating our second Thanksgiving here today (this one is from Saturday).  I was so excited to have a few hydrangea left in the garden to grace the table.  

Wishing you a wonderful day filled with friends and family!

Pimlico Magazine {thank you}


  I wanted to say a big thank you to Pimlico magazine for including me along with the other wonderful bloggers in their Winter 2012 issue.  They asked me to share some of my holiday table setting ideas and I think that setting the table can be one of the best parts of entertaining so I was happy to put together some of my favorites!  I offered a little sneak peek a few weeks back and here is the final result. Hopefully my schedule will allow for some entertaining this holiday season that I can share with you here on the blog too.  This issue is full of great ideas from wrapping to what to wear, check it out here.  


Here are a few other shots from that day.  It is always fun to have a little photo shoot!

Masculine & transitional...


A little inspiration for a Friday.  This is an inspiration board from my presentation this week.  I fell for the easy semi masculine feel of this one.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend and thanks for sharing a little bit of your day with me here, it is so nice to be able to share my work and ideas with everyone.

final...


Ahh,  a few little snaps from my final install of last week.  It was nice to put the major part of the work behind me.  There are always little changes to be made and switch outs that need to happen as with all installs.  It seems that inevitably there is something that arrives broken, in the wrong color or just does not arrive at all, and you have to be able to make the decision on a moments notice as to whether making a switch will change your vision for the project or if it will make it even better. 
There is nothing relaxing or easy about the install days, it is a bunch of work with the greatest of rewards- a finished project!

2 Down...



Well another set of installs are done.. mostly.  We had no window coverings but hey those will be there on Friday and then I can take a bit better pictures.  That is the hardest part I think about installing design jobs is getting everything to come together on time and in the correct condition.  Inevitably something goes wrong but you learn to improvise and sometimes it ends up being better because you are actually in the space. 
I was pretty pleased with these spaces over all.  We still have things to add and things to finish up but it was a good day of work.

If you want to see more photos you can check on instagram here or @greigedesign.

A little blue and orange



Just a little sneak peek at my installations from yesterday.  As always there are a few mis-steps here and there but everything went pretty well and I was pretty happy with how it went.
