It's the New Year, so I thought we should ring it in by "tooting" Drew's horn! He worked closely with Celeste
at TheStem of Things in Appleton, WI to
custom fit our Clermont
Azul to
fit the clients backslash and cook top wall. Our eagle eyes cut the
stone and Drew calculated everything to fit perfect. Beautiful design
The Stem of Things and great detail Drew, cannot wait to see this one
installed!

Purge it or Loose it!
Purging, it's good for organization, effectiveness, and
the soul! I'm constantly going through clothes, toys, and all around stuff.
There is a reason staging is a useful tool in real-estate. People like a
clean organized house! You just feel good. Now that my daughter is older she
helps too! We have piles for donating, re-purposing, and rubbish. I always feel
better once I eliminate the clutter that
we end up glazing right over!
So here is to a Happy Holiday Purge to begin the
New Year!

{Thursday Thoughts} Sustainability is the path to our future.
Once
on a fast track pace for shiny, new baubles generations left piles of
wreckage with discarded possessions. The new wave of thinking has
changed to reusing, re purposing, and recycling.
This
new philosophy of ingenuity has produced magnificent designs from
homes and buildings to art and design.
This cozy earth home was crafted and built by Simon Dale with help from his Father-In-Law.
David Mach utilizes recycled hangers among other materials.
Studio Swine uses salvaged plastic from the ocean to bring to life this stool.

Thursday Thoughts {Kitchen Client tile install}
Tis the season for sharing and eating. Well... at least in my
house! It was this weekend when I was cooking with my daughters that I was
reminded of how much time I spend in the kitchen especially this time of
year. So much of the holiday magic and feeling comes straight from the oven. We
all tend to gather for warm conversation and yummy bites to sneak. Even in the
smallest kitchen people find their way to congregate at the heart of the home.
In light of the season, I thought I would share some of the beautiful installs
that our clients have shared with us in hopes to infuse new ideas into the heart
of your home!

Multiple Murals, Oh my!
Creating a feeling isn't
always easy to achieve, but take a look at this rich dining room.
The moment you walk in you are instantly projected into an old Tuscan
home.
Kudos
to Paula Kersten of Paula Kersten Design CID, Inc. and Virginia
Tile Grand Rapids, MI. We are exhilarated by the integration of
our materials to help create a magnificent space.
Thank
you for sharing and inspiring!

As the Tile Turns
Our Marseille Collection of tiles have been a very popular choice for kitchen backsplash designs.
Bet you didn't know how a slight turn of a tile can give you a whole different look!
The picture above shows the layout for the Marseille Collection that you will see in our tile catalogs. Four tiles make the pattern with the larger circles meeting in the middle.
But by laying out the same pattern tiles in a new way, you can have a single large circle in the middle and four little "quarter circles" in each corner.
But you aren't done yet! Another turn of the tile gives you yet another look using the same Marseille Pattern tiles. You get one larger circle in the center and two half circles on each side. Neat, huh?
The Marseille Collection comes in a number of different colors:
