In French, you don't really say, "I miss you." You say, "tu me manques," which means, "You are missing from me."

I love that.

House Beautiful invited eleven top designers to share what they're seeing as the 'next big thing,' and, baby, they delivered!

Ranging from olive greens to bright patterns, enjoy the ride as we visit these entertaining color combo's.

Greek Blue is fabulous when paired with grey and pink.

Greek Blue is fabulous when paired with grey and pink. It otherwise may be overwhelming, but its stunningness is perfect in this new and fun color scheme.

Designer Robert Passal used these in the dining area of his Miami Beach apartment.

Don't let the strong, strong blue distract from the use here of olive and orange.

In the 1960's the colors olive green and orange were 'groovy,' 'outta sight,' and even 'far out, man!'

Art That Modifies Human Behavior + Guacamole Grilled Cheese Sandwich Bonus Recipe

2014-07-12T08:23:00.001-07:00

What happens when we can both see and fuse with an element of beauty? Exceptional moments in time occur.

Saying this energy is unique is an enormous understatement. There are numerous styles of art that reflect efforts to enlarge those exceptional energy opportunities, including art that modifies social behavior. This is my favorite.

The First Stencil

"Before I Die Project," by Candy Chang

Candy Chang, a Taiwanese American artist interested in relationships between public spaces and personal well being created, "Before I Die." Initially started to invite people to reflect on their lives and share their personal aspirations in a public space, Chang's "BID" has gone beyond those limitations.

Responses

Universally, stoics and other philosophers encourage regularly contemplating death as a powerful tool to restore perspective and remind us of the things that make our lives meaningful.

Since Chang's first "BID" project, over 500 Before I Die walls have been created in over 60 countries and 30 languages by passionate people around the world. St. Martin's Press recently published her book about the project, click here to see Candy Chang's book, "Before I Die." For more more about the artist herself, click here.

Candy Chang received a Masters in Urban Planning from Columbia University and a BS in Architecture and a BFA in Graphic Design from the University of Michigan.

She believes public spaces are as profound as we allow them to be and have much more potential to help us make sense of the beauty and tragedy of life with the people around us.

Canadian Designer Delivers Calm, Simple And, Huge Style

2014-06-07T06:14:00.000-07:00

Canadian uber designer/entrepreneur Deb Nelson has become a national favorite known for presentation of a clean, relaxed, modern style. Those of us south of the U.S./Canadian, 'International Boundary,' can also embrace this designer's supremely fresh look.

This delightful entryway could be a black and white composition but for the sisal area rug and the strong vertical floral display

The black ribbon tie on the roman blinds adds fun to the vignette.

The very simple but strong black mirror visually doubles the space of the area and fits wonderfully with the narrow table just below.

Deb Nelson overhauled a once-dingy garage area into a fresh and functional living space:

In the selection of a color scheme or living environment we can see Deb Nelson's look and style: a neutral, soothing color scheme, save some royal blue toss pillows.

The entire space is painted white

A large sisal rug casually serves to hold the furniture grouping together.

An antique bed now hosts a tufted mattress allowing it to super-comfortably serve as a sofa by day.

Two subtly elegant bergere style chairs complete the vignette.

The black and white art, placed casually on the floor against the wall, adds visual interest to the room.

Seen here, a sleek, clean and minimalist style can create a sense of serenity and of calm.

In the guest bedroom, the glossy white paint used on both the floor and the vintage twin beds' head and footboards is refreshing with the heavy wood of the rafters. Deb Nelson eked out a work area in the attic's guest bedroom by tucking a table as a work space below the eaves.

In making design choices for your home:

In this kitchen the whitewashing of the rustic planks and beams draw your eyes up, conveying a sense of casual drama.

The darker rustic farm table and simple Hans Wegner Wishbone chairs are appealing, adding depth to the room.

A favorite piece of art

A cherished painting

Even a patterned area rug

Can serve as absolutely-great foundations in color scheme and design style choices.

Designer Deb Nelson often works with neutral colors believing that they are conducive to a home of calm and balance. If this appeals to you, if you like a more clean, less cluttered, look, than this may be a good option. I recall a observant adage:

"Less Things, More Life."

Note that a unique part of this approach is use the space and the naturally unique parts of a room to show through - but not necessarily take over.

I personally encourage you to embrace your living areas. Let its beauty show through.

A SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL THOUGHT - JUST BLOOM

2014-05-31T09:11:00.001-07:00

A SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL THOUGHT:

"A Flower Does Not Think Of Competing With The Next Flower, It Just Blooms."

Belgian Church Transformed Into Rock 'N Roll Restaurant

2014-05-07T06:14:00.003-07:00

You will swoon over this former church now restaurant, The Jane, with its mix of textiles and re-use of space. I'm gaga over the use of light and lighting, and the now so-not-typical stained glass windows . . and as you'll see, unorthodox new treatments.

Three years ago, "Dutch design studio Piet Boon completed the transformation of the church of a former military hospital into The Jane, a gourmet destination that combines fine dining with a rock 'n roll aesthetic" (from "Yatzer." )

From the awesome exterior lighting presentation to the significant 150-lights long-spiked interior chandelier, the entire venue superbly incorporates spectacular lighting systems, each perfect for its space usage. (Credit to .PSLAB)

Light and lighting is a primary consideration in any design project including lighting provided by daylight
and/or windows. Here we can see the traditional style of Western European churches and their use of stained glass windows.

But, look closer. The Jane Restaurant has neither martyrs nor miracles of medieval saints. This adaptive re-use site hosts windows " . . . decorated with a haphazard collection of objects, animals and other shapes, ranging from eaten apple cores and penguins to gas masks and birthday cakes . . ." according to Studio Job. Going 'green,' is good, for our environment, and to shake up and modernize previously used building materials.

The preserved church of a former military hospital is now a restaurant of international allure with Michelin-Star Chef Sergio Herman at the helm. This is building re-use at its most culinary.

Where the alter used to be, the kitchen now stands; and it is encased within glass walls making the entire cooking process visible to The Jane Restaurant patrons.

If you are in Europe and near the lovely Country of Belgium or are making plans to visit it, add The Jane, in Antwerp, to your itinerary.

Let me share some secret truths about Belgium:

It is a genuine paradise for gourmet lovers.
Then there is the Belgium fashion and nightlife. Belgium is fast becoming THE destination in Europe for the 20-30 somethings. It seems they are flocking to cities like Brussels for stylish, inexpensive hotels, great food and a pulsating nightlife.
And, now there is 'The Jane.'

Heads Up! To book a space in the Upper Room Bar, allow one month. You'll need to book a table however at least three months in advance for The Jane. Go for it! I love Belgium, it's the best of the beautiful. In French - it would be said, "Le meilleur de la belle!"

How To Entertain And Easy Spinach Balls Appetizer Recipe

2014-05-07T04:00:00.000-07:00

About entertaining: I have often thought, as I prepare the house for a party, that I am doing more than I know I am doing. Something about the laying of the tablecloths, setting out of candles, and fixing flowers in vases has a sacramental quality to it - as if I am turning a house into a tabernacle - to be filled with spirits that enlarge my own.

Here are some ideas, some secrets to entertaining well.

Keep your guests happy, keep them entertained
Use the largest space available, play music there, place your food table there and provide places for people to sit, to play games and dance! Open the curtains and the windows, weather permitting, this helps set a nice atmosphere.
Provide food and drink. Present it attractively - people - all people - love good food.
Play music. It adds to the ambience, helps your guests get in a more relaxed, festive mood
Provide party games. If you don't have your own, buy or borrow (or google search) for fun games. Keep them simple. The simpler the party game is, the easier it is for your guests to get enthusiastic - and, competitive.
Introduce your friends to one another. If it's a large crowd, consider name tags.
Talk to everyone. Thank them when they arrive; pay a few minutes of personal attention to each and every guest. If there are too many people, then talk to groups.
Consider a theme for your event. "Hippy Generation: Peace, Love and Flower People" is easy and fun. Vintage-era themes like, "Gangsters And Flappers," aka, "Speakeasys," also work well. Or, opt for a particular piece of clothing to serve as your theme, like a hat. Make it as silly or as strange as you like. Click here for a fabulous link of party theme ideas.
Remember, you can lessen your own load by making it a "Pot Luck," or another version is a "Pie Party" (each person brings a Meat Pie, Vegetable Pie or a Dessert type pie - quiche also works here).

Spinach Balls Appetizer Recipe By The Kitchen Is My Playground Bonus Recipe

Ingredients:

2 10-oz. packages frozen spinach, thawed and well-drained
2 small onions, very finely chopped (I use a food processor)
2-1/4 cup stuffing with herbs (I use Pepperidge Farm)
6 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup melted butter
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
2 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. black pepper

Directions:

Mix all ingredients until well combined. Form into about 1" balls; place on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Makes approximately 60 balls.

Notes: Spinach balls may be frozen, either baked or unbaked. (I always freeze mine pre-baked.) For pre-baked balls: remove from freezer about 30 minutes prior to reheating. Reheat in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes. For unbaked balls: remove from freezer 30 minutes before cooking. Bake as directed (350 degrees for 20 minutes).

Enjoy! Spinach Balls Appetizer Recipe is from The Kitchen Is My Playground, with Tracey Harrelson.

Kitchen Lighting Styles And Trends + Pesto Pasta Bonus Recipe

2014-03-13T08:00:00.002-07:00

The latest kitchen trend isn't a trend or a style - it's a 'livability'.

Since function is the key, primary element in designing kitchen space anyways, this makes sticking to the the fundamentals of vital importance.

Of the many design essentials in creating your extremely livable kitchen, ample light and lighting are requisites. What's more, proper layering of this design element is critical in assuring that you achieve the look you desire and, one that 'lives well'.

How sweet it is!

In kitchen lighting there are five primary types: 1. recessed 2. wall-mounted 3. pendant 4. ceiling-mounted, and 5. track. Each has its primary and secondary uses and a space may require one or all of these lighting types in order to perform a specific task or set a desired mood.

This is a good time to proclaim: Chandeliers are no longer just for entryways!

Jerome Buttrick of Buttrick Wong Architects, notes about this splendid lighting form, "It's nice to have a chandelier over a kitchen island as it adds intimacy and scale to a room, although it should not compete with the dining room lighting."

Kitchens Go Industrial With Corrugated Metal

2014-03-12T16:03:00.000-07:00

Where cooking areas are pared down to essentials only. Where in design, form and function of food preparation is paramount.

This is Kitchen, Industrial Chic Style.

The look derives from the real workaday lives of restaurants, cafeterias, gallerys, canteens, etc. It evolves from what hardworking, proletarian and utilitarian work spaces are consumed of - humble, practical and often necessarily affordable materials - such as corrugated metal sheeting, more typically seen on outdoor sheds. Ha!

These work areas may be unassuming but they need not be unappealing, especially if you cook! (Cont'd. below.)

Check These Out For Fun!

Industrial Bar Stools And Counter Stools

Industrial Accessories And Decor by Saint Louis Furniture & Accessories Relique

Industrial Storage And Organization by Santa Monica Furniture & Accessories CRASH Industrial Supply

This look of delighting in lack of pretension, stripping back architecture and the salvaging of objects is occurring across the design landscape in multimillion-dollar mansions and in converted lofts in gritty parts of town.

The salvaging, repurposing or using of corrugated metal sheeting is not your typical go-to finish for home kitchens. But, take a second look, there's the fluky chance of actual appreciation of these no-nonsense work spaces with their minimal excess. In this Industrial Style look, anything that can be forged or welded is fair game: exposed ductwork, stairwells, countertops, divider walls. This unique item, inexpensive, corrugated metal sheeting, is being displayed with pride in the look that reveals the beauty in everyday flotsam.

If decorating isn't easy for you or if you are in need of some particular interior design assistance, our designers at the Something Beautiful Shoppe will be happy to work with you - working with a professional helps assure you get the look you desire while helping eliminate costly mistakes.

Anthropomorphic portraiture - (pronounced, an·thro·po·mor·phic) is the combination of animals' heads superimposed upon human bodies, or the reverse - is a genre that appears and reappears throughout the history of painting . . . .

. . A contemporary artist has taken this genre of portraiture a lighthearted step farther. Thierry Poncelet, started as a picture restorer and artist, and started searching out old portraits in poor condition and painting an appropriate animal's head - usually a dog, cat, or monkey - onto the original sitter. He then restores the rest of the canvas, creating a delightfully humorous new-from-old work of art.

Decorate A Dreamhouse - English Country Cottage + Afternoon Tea Biscuits Bonus Recipe

2013-11-17T11:52:00.001-08:00

Written By: Patricia Lynne

Editor: Sarahjoy Crain

In my current SB Journal entry "Decorating A Dreamhouse" I'm imagining I'm living in a thatched-roof, English-country cottage, like the one at left.

The cottage:

* is wonderfully comfortable and welcoming
* abounds with overstuffed sofas and chairs
* has lots of snugly woolen shawls to toss over one's shoulders at the first sign of a chill

The Gardens:

The gardens that surround English homes, including
my own cottage, are so important to the English landscape - they are their own art form. Famed author Andy Garnett has stated,

"The Italians have their opera and the French their cuisine, but for the English, it will always be the garden."

Thus in my daily life here I always have at the ready my favorite sun bonnet, sweater and basket of pruning tools.

The garden in the front of the house is slightly more subdued. The cottage's rear yard garden is less so, it is more free form.

I love excellent design and architecture derived from generations of living and learning from the land, as in, English country cottage thatched roofs. Woo-hoo!

We're going inside now, so join me as I decorate my Dreamhouse English Country Cottage.

America: We Own Western Art, It's OURS

2013-10-26T07:43:00.000-07:00

"There are few things in this world that are unique to this country.

"The Western genre as a whole and the cowboy in particular go hand in hand as symbols that represent everything that is American. The cowboy that rode across the American West helped to settle this country. He braved Indian attack, wild horses, stampedes, drowning and every other form of horrible death imaginable. The cowboy’s time came and went, but it was glorious while it lasted. While it was a period of danger and death, it was also one of loyalty and honor." ~ Matthew Pizzolato

American Western Art is highly-valuable, collectible art, and moreover, it's entirely in rhythm with the heartbeat of America.

Two Cowboy Sculptures & & Christie's Auction House:

Christie's is the largest art business and fine arts auction house in the world. In 2007, Christie's Auction House sold Frederic Remington's "Bronco Buster" sculpture, cast number R8 bronze, standing 23-1/2" tall for $482,500.00.

Again, in 2008, Christie's sold Remington's "The Outlaw" sculpture cast number 14, bronze, standing 23" tall, for $662,500.00.

The Bucking Bronco Sculpture And the Presidential Oval Office:

The Oval Office, located in the West Wing of the White House, is the official office of the President of the United States.

Presidents generally decorate the office to suit their personal taste, choosing new furniture, new drapery, and designing their own oval-shaped carpet to take up most of the floor. Paintings are selected from the White House's own collection, or borrowed from museums for the president's term in office.
