Greetings!
Aducci pillows
We're heading into the holiday season and I am working hard to get my kitchen makeover finished in time for Christmas. Every year, it seems like time moves faster and our lives get a little crazier!

If you're looking for some household tips and DIY advice, I have links below to several articles I've written recently for Divine Caroline and Networx.com covering a range of topics from Kitchen Maintenance to Home Staging to  Mid-Century Modern furniture. There's a little something for everyone here!

I have a great story about the architectural photographer Michael J. Lee who shot a living room I designed not long ago. If you shoot your own photographs or admire the beautiful images in your favorite shelter magazines, this article is for you.

As always, if there is anything I can be doing for you, please don't hesitate to ask. Whether it's in person decorating or budget friendly virtual decorating services - I can help you create a beautiful, comfortable and affordable home.

Happy Halloween and Happy Decorating!

Linda

KitchenMakeoverMy Kitchen Update

In last month's newsletter, I wrote about my new relationship with New England Home magazine and my related kitchen makeover project. A lot of work has taken place since then, and a lot is still to come! Here's a "Reader's Digest" version of the progress, in photos:

Michael Lee
A couple of months ago, I had the honor of having a room that I designed photographed by Michael J. Lee. I have long admired Michael's eye and how he captures a space.

Prior to hanging out his shingle as a professional photographer just two years ago, Michael was an interior designer and worked for two of New England's biggest names in design Celeste Cooper and Richard FitzGerald. Michael holds a BS in Interior Design from Wentworth Institute of Technology and is a self-taught photographer.  After years in the design field, Michael found that his passion was photography and made the switch!

I am currently writing for a new website called Networx, which features home improvement and DIY content. This is a story I wrote on a decorating and home staging project I did a couple of years ago at a friend's home in Rhode Island. This small bungalow style home was small but packed a colorful punch!
