The real deal.......



For as long as I can remember, and just like my girls playing "dress-up", I have played decorator in my own home.....I admit, it is costly hobby and my time could most likely be spent in more noble pursuit, but makes me oh so happy and satisfies all sorts of creative instincts I seem to have.


I happen to have a friend, Kate, who is a real life decorator.....living out all my "dress-up" fantasies of going to market, buying trips and purchasing inaccessible "to the trade" fabrics......

Last night I got the opportunity to attend the grand opening party of Kate's new design studio and shop in Excelsior, Minnesota.


The Sitting Room Home specializes in helping homeowners create a fresh, traditional and collected look in their homes. A girl after my own heart, Kate mixes high end pieces with more moderately priced accessories and even vintage finds!





I *l-o-v-e* these vintage framed french letters!




This is Kate, she probably wants to kill me for posting this picture - but I thought it was a beautiful profile shot of her looking all happy!


If you are in Excelsior or need design services in Minnesota - go see Kate!
