Channeling Martha Part 2.

Everything I do has some relation to Martha Stewart.
Its like six degrees of separation. I think the only thing not is maybe video games.

I found this mirror. I was trying to emulate Martha's acanthus leaf mirror that hung in the formal dining room at Turkey Hill. MS partnership with Bernhardt offered a almost exact replica of the original. It was more of a white wash finish than luster.

This is my homage to her over mantle looking glass.

And another.

I put stacks of books everywhere. I'm running out of room. This marble table top has deep veining similar to her brown room dining table.

I have a center table like Martha's Skylands main hall table. However I noticed that in the September premier its no longer the large round table but a long faux bois table.
I also have my faux bois cachepots.

Valentines Decoration.

Cherubs and copper luster.

Paper heart doilies.

Finally can get to that pumpkin. It had been buried under piles of snow. It also looks like two clay pots were left out. Pulverized by the winter wetness.

Valentine wreath. Handmade of course.

I love this little container. Usually you can find it missing all its red hearts. Probably due to the dishwasher.

Two old but new to me Paris porcelain compotes.

My game fowl set up high while I paint the cabinet. The drab color didn't fare well.
Back to the paint store for a solution.

The most used area of my room.

Pretty green damask drapes from the Cotswold's.

2010, more painting..

I'm repainting the cabinet that houses my Lara Croft collection.

A lovely beige or drab.
