When I was in High Point in April, Katie Denham from the Katie Did blog,and I were wandering around the CR Laine Showroom, when we ran into Holly Blalock, their design director, taking some other people on a tour of the showroom.Holly kindly included us in the tour, and we shortly found out that one of the other people was Lacey Howard,the editor of the new BHG special interest publication “Refresh”.

Lacey told us that the magazine would be coming out in late May, so when I saw it at the store, I grabbed it!

The chair above reflects two very current trends – animal prints and the emerald green, which was chosen as Pantone’s colour of the year.

Aside from going to High Point – and don’t worry, there are still a few more highlights from High Point – there have been some other things swirling around my life.

On Saturday, one of the most beautiful of our fall days, I had the chance to be a tour guide at the Federal Hill Historic House Tour at a friend’s house. I wanted to share the most incredible view from her third floor deck.Can you imagine having this view from your house? It’s ever-changing and always interesting.
