Devambez-Paris Chevalier

Here is a shot of our last French Print, over sized and beautifully framed. Titled Devambez-Paris Chevalier. It would be perfect in a loft style home, use it as a back drop in the dining room or bar.

We are working with clients today, but I am looking froward to a Blue and White posting late this afternoon. I think we are all looking for a little Spring here in Chicago. Blue and White can kick off the season! We found some incredible images and have great design ideas.

By the way, did you check out Katie Lee on the morning show? It was a segment about being green. She displayed one of our favorite manufactures, Paddy Wax candles. Check out the link, we could all use a little green in our homes. www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=6242116n

Quail feathered lamps

Last time Shell and I were at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago we found feathered wallpaper, actual Quail feathers, by Schumacher. www.fschumacher.com We couldn't stop thinking about it. A few days later we had the opportunity to place these lamps with feathered shades in the store. You can see more at Shellinteriors.com

Antique seltzer bottles

We recently came across these antique colorful seltzer bottles. I love the faded designs and words and, of course, that they're Argentinian! The ones above could be used as vases for a casual table or just admired for the color. Reminds me of collecting beach glass in the Summer along the shore of Lake Michigan.

Our first blog Post. Be kind, we are still new at this. We will try to keep you up to date and post new and interesting design ideas as often as we can. ( by the way that's me on the left). You can see our work at ShellInteriors.com , or stop by the shop if you would like.


Let's see how it goes.
