As a San Francisco primarily based artist and creator of lovely things, I try to design the small print of my life in order that my expertise of beauty is enhanced to the maximum. It is what I name Suave Living. Certainly one of my inspirations is beautiful fabric. What’s yours?

My business is sewing for custom interiors and  I get great  pleasure from working with beautiful fabrics.  Flowing silks, crisp linens and the brilliant flowers of a waxy cotton chintz are a delight to the senses. My featured fabric from the house of Fortuny is one in all my favorites.

What I really like about my work is collaborating intently with shoppers to create the houses they wish to dwell in and really feel great about. Making all the pieces from bedding, window remedies and pillows, I create something exquisite each day. I’ve extended the rich sensual expertise of my work into my philosophy of Clever Living.

Clever Dwelling can embody the supplies, the texture, the colour and the type of the on a regular basis items with which you encompass yourself. Life is a feast and you’ll take every opportunity to get pleasure from it is pleasures by enriching your daily expertise with beauty. Reside Artfully by:

Have Your Special Signature Piece  – Take an on a regular basis item like your handbag,  your tote or a shawl  and make it your particular signature piece. A unique expression reflective of you! As an example, sooner or later in a fantastic hurry, Babe Paley socialite and trend setter in the 50′s and 60′s, tied her Hermes scarf to the handle of her purse thereby creating a style craze. Everybody who was anyone instantly did the same.

Uplift and Enrich Yourself in Small Details – It is not what you possess but the way you benefit from it by presenting and arranging it. Consciously design your life as an antidote to the pervasive stress of the 21st century. Select the small print of your surroundings to uplift and enrich your life.  Maybe it’s something that was made particularly for you, or something that reminds you of a joyful time. Each time I look  at the small Florentine paper image body which sits on my bookcase, I’m immediately transported to that magical store under the Ponte Vecchio and the mushy, warm light of a spring evening.  What small item takes you to a favorite corner of the world?

Be Environmentally Pleasant – Your artifacts can be long-established from salvaged, recycled, reused or renewable materials. You may suppose that this does not sound sexy but you’ll be able to have beauty and be type to the planet on the same time.  I reuse classic Japanese kimonos to make beautiful pillows and totes. My clients love them as a result of they’re extremely limited pieces, made especially for them from high-high quality materials with prints that are now not loomed. It is a real thrill to have your individual customized pillow, tote or accent in a cloth that can by no means be made again.

Be a Pebble in the Pond – As the ripples spread out from one small pebble dropped right into a pond, you may give others the present of Clever Living by simply embodying it yourself. Others will perceive and luxuriate in your elevated sense of vivaciousness as you unselfconsciously go about sporting your signature piece. Just think of how good you feel when somebody compliments you on your good taste and style.  You can too artfully maintain the details of your work environment. I often benefit with improved mood and vitality by conserving a fresh reduce flower (a pink, orange or yellow Gerber Daisy is my favourite) in a small elegant Japanese ceramic vase. I keep it next to my pc and a couple of times a day or so, the colour and fragrance affords me a wonderful contemplative get-away into beauty. It lets me refocus on my work with a renewed sense of vigor. You may experience the same benefits with your own private clever design. By expressing the radiance that’s your true nature, you’ll enhance your own life and the lives of others in shocking methods!  
Get ready for an abundance of fresh ideas, vitality and new beautiful gadgets to boost your dwelling!
