I have to hold myself back around the house and office and put them everywhere - so I have limited myself to just ONE table in my living room and a pair of hurricane lanterns that I purchased at Charlotte Moss.
I thought that I would show off what I did a few years back. It all started with selecting a Greek Key trim for the base of a skirt that I designed for the San Francisco Decorator Showcase master bathroom that I designed in 2006. As you will see from the examples that I was looking at none seemed to work just right for the project- so I went for my own design of a more chunky version that was hand painted on. Once the showcase was over I had the skirt re-fitted and made into a round table cloth for my living room. Stay tuned as I have just added a little bit'o Greek Key in my bedroom and it will be along the bed skirt and trim on the chocolate brown (Clarence House-yum) linen! It is all being sewn by my fabulous seamstress...and I am SO excited to get everything back and installed next week.

Like your miniature staircase. Been coveting these for a while now, having seen one in Fortnam's in October, but because of space constraints for luggage, felt I couldn't get it out to me here in Bangkok. No I wish I had!
The skirt on the sink vanity is perfection! It is so nice to see a designer who knows how to create beautiful soft treatments.
We used the Samuel and Son Greek Key on our curtains. It always looks so sharp.
You and me both, Grant. I have to use major restraint with Greek Keys and Chinoiserie. Love 'em!
So elegant. Enjoyed finding your lovely blog today via Habitually Chic.
I'll have to agree about the Greek key ........I love 'em too and too much of a good thing can be soooooo bad! I love what you did with the skirts....they look so chic!
I absolutley adore the bath...and I don't say that very often.
Your blog is gorgeous and so is your taste. I was going to ask what the wallpaper in the bathroom was - then I saw the answer. Thank you so much.
I'm inspired Grant!
I can't wait to see more of your home!
