Bloomin' Snow!

As I sit in my office, looking out the window at the very wet SNOW,  I remind myself that there is only one week to go till it is safe to purchase outdoor flowers in Colorado.

It never fails... May hits, we've been teased with a few days of 80 degree weather and everyone begins to plant their flowers, only to have those few days of cold rain and it eventually turns into the wettest snow ever!

Well, that day was today.

So I sit at my desk working so diligently and I enjoy my favorite teapot exploding with white tulips right in front of me.  I know there are just days left when its safe, when I'm in the clear to begin the obsession of what my front porch will look like this year.

Last year I had the honor of being featured on one of my favorite blogs and friend of re-U.  JoAnna's Thrifted Thursdays post showcased a few photos of last years re-purposed display.  

Each year I use only re-cycled finds around my home to paint and plant flowers in.  

This is one shot from a few years ago.  I love the beautiful coral color of the zinnias mixed with dark & light.

Mothers Day is just around the corner...hhhmmm.

LAUNCH: A Day Of Design

This week I had the pleasure of attending LAUNCH: A Day Of Design at the Denver Design District.

This post chronicles my day in a life of a designer through Instagram. 

My day begins at Wesco Fabrics Showroom.

Marla Gentry and me enjoying the new fabrics & window designs.

Dick Gentry and designer also enjoying the seminar.

Haute Couture Inspired treatments with a touch of Yves.

Next stop, Grange Showroom.

Love the sliding bookcase to hide a tv.

Combinations of black, white, hot pink and lavender are spectacular.

Lovely little locker.

Industrial details, fantastic.

Amazing displays by Grange on Wednesday!

Break for lunch with beautiful textured views at Ebanista showroom.

For the final stop, Moda Antica.

Kristen Kilgore of Fabricut spoke about the new Charlotte Moss collection.  Love these new fabrics and trims!

As I peruse through walls and walls of the fabrics from all over the world, I can see the trend in LARGE prints.

Suzanni inspiration is everywhere.

I have to say my favorite pattern right now is this Ishtar print by Barry Dixon.  I love all five colors it comes in!

After spending a good 3 hours looking through fabrics, it was time to go home.

I cannot tell you how much fun I had!  A day of inspiration, learning and meeting with wonderful & talented people.

I cannot wait for the next event.
