Chevron Chic

Call it what you want-
"zig zag swag"
"chevron chic"

This bold pattern is popping up everywhere. It turns boring into extraordinary. 

Don't be afraid to mix patterns and colors. It gives a room something to talk about.

 Adding a chevron rug to an outdated room will give it an instant modern update.

Domino Special Edition

 

The return of a long lost friend! We've missed you so!

Just announed, Domino Quick Fixes, a Domino special edition will hit newstands nationwide on April 17th.

Dreams really DO come true!

I am still in mourning over the end of this fabulous magazine in 2009---years after it's devastating departure.

I have every single issue of the magazine and still leaf through old editions--revisiting the turned down pages that have been bookmarked with good ideas. I discovered Jonathan Adler, Mary Mcdonald, Katie Ridder, Bunny Williams...this was my design education. My passion. My love.

For years, I tried to keep the dream alive. I spent every other third Thursday of every other month honoring our fallen hero. I'd buy a lucite chair, wallpaper a room in navy lacquer, mold clay into an Adler-esque pottery pot. Anything to keep the dream alive.

Lonny tried. Lonny left.

But now Domino is back! The special edition is a start! I'll take it. I've marked my calendar! And I'll be the first at the newsstand on April 17th!
