Decorating Moments

Do you know anyone who lives in a perfectly decorated home?  Is every room in their house ready for a House Beautiful photo shoot? 

I have a friend who lives in an elegant, 'completed',  professionally decorated home - from the gorgeous living room to the exquisite guest bath - and that's probably because she's a professional decorator!  Even she is constantly honing and refining her designs.

It is my humble, totally unsubstantiated opinion that decorating is all about perfect moments, not perfect homes.  Brief glimpses of satisfaction where color, texture, structure, and balance come together in a display of Yes! That's the look I wanted!  

Join me in a beautiful tour of inspirational moments that say, "Yes!"

Did you notice the one thing that all of these incredible moments have in common?  They all have at least one vintage, antique, or retro piece of decor - a chair, table, lamp, picture, painting, or just a simple bowl.  

I hope you found inspiration in our tour and that you seek out treasures from the past and incorporate them into one of your moments.
