Inspiration in White: Swiss Cross + X

Trudy Crane October 7, 2013

The Swiss Cross symbol is really showing up all over Pinterest and on many blogs thanks to the Pia Wallen blanket. Done in black and white it fits so well into a modern Nordic decor. I have also seen versions of this with a big X as well giving a sort of stark, cool design element in a room. Both the cross and X are being used on pillows, wall art, wallpaper and of course in blankets and throws. Doesn't black and white always looks so good in decorating...always sophisticated...

Enjoy!

Cable Knit Ideas

Trudy Crane December 12, 2012

I was looking for some cushions for one of my clients and I was seeing cable knit cushions everywhere! High end and low end alike, heavy cable knit was in every store and it looks so cozy for this time of year I am tempted to buy some for myself! I started looking around on different websites as well and do you know how many things are made with cable knit in mind? Take a look at just a few ideas...

Modern Rustic

Trudy Crane November 27, 2012

Very sweet home in Australia! I just love the kitchen with the rustic feel, the vine and the gorgeous column. The winding staircase with the bustform on the landing is a wonderful added touch. The owners collection of bone rings and cuffs is beautifully displayed in a bowl. Nice styling and a lovely home.

Enjoy!
