Baby it’s cold outside, so warm up by the fire.

If you’re lucky enough to have a fireplace in your kitchen or dining room, winter is the perfect time to light that fire and get cozy. I love to serve candlelight dinners by the fire. No need to wait for dinner guests, give yourself and your family a treat. It’s a great way to make everyday meals special and encourage family togetherness. If you need a little inspiration, take a look at this Houzz article from last winter, then go ahead and light that fire!

The Magic of Travel

An Asian Garden

A recent trip to Thailand included a stop at Singapore’s airport. I was impressed, the airport was very clean, full of shops and had beautiful gardens. After a long flight it was so nice to get out to stretch my legs and I was pleased with what I saw. Since opening in 1981, Singapore Changi Airport has grown and has won countless awards for customer service. I mention this to emphasize how important first impressions are, how our environments can make a huge difference in how we feel and how traveling can inspire new ideas. If you have any interest in learning more about Changi take a look:  (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore_Airport) . Stay tuned for more design news from my trip to Thailand.
