PINK 365 DAYS A YEAR



About a year ago Randal Weeks of

AIDAN GRAY HOME 

introduced the pink collection of lamps

 and chandeliers.  This collection is in

honor of his Mother who past away

from Breast Cancer.  Breast cancer

affects a woman's life 365 days a year.

Randal is committed to raising funds

for breast cancer research because

the fight for a cure is personal to all of us. 

 

This season Aidan Gray has added to the

pink collection with a wonderful

group of pendants and chandeliers

using Mother of Pearl as the focus.

 

Half of the profits from the sales of

these items goes to breast cancer

research. 

 

 

I am very proud to be a part of the

Pink Campaign.  This is a personal

fight for all of us. 

AMERICA RETOLD

I am very happy to announce that I will

be representing AMERICA RETOLD

The line has been asleep for a while

and is now offering an expanded collection

of "Messages from AR".

These signs are inspired by the historic

enamel signs of Paris and Amsterdam,

old European labels and cartouches.

 

 

 

 

These authentic signs feature memorable

messages using hand-scripted

calligraphy and carefully selected

type fonts and are appropriate for

a wide variety of situations and occasions.

Whether displayed in the home, office,

store, restaurant or B & B they

will add a charming note to any space.

GETTY VILLA, MALIBU

 We are so fortunate to have some fabulous

museums in Southern California.  One of

my favorites is the GETTY VILLA.



The gardens are so beautiful and

well taken care of.  As soon as you

get out of the parking garage there

are treats to behold. 

The Villa is modeled after the Villa dei Papiri,

a Roman country house in Herculaneum buried

by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D.79.

This is Hermes, the God of Travel.

Notice the wings on his feel.

After a couple of hours in the gardens

we went inside to explore the ancient

culture of The Greeks, The Etruscans

and The Romans.

I got a little sidetracked with the

beautiful ceilings,

and marble floors.

This is called the Family Forum where

ancient art comes alive in this hands-on

discovery space families, that

encourage shared learning and play.

 

 

"The beauty one can find in art is one of

the pitifully few real and lasting products

of human endeavor."
