Is all this economic news got you
depressed? It's hard not to be grim when everyday all we seem to
hear about on the news is doom and gloom, I&rsquom afraid that
we may actually make this a self fulfilling prophecy just because
we are all so inundated with negative media. So what can we do to
remain positive and optimistic about our economy? Paint, not only
is the act of rolling a roller over your walls therapeutic, but
adding colour can help us feel better. Yes, let&rsquos design
spaces that actually put us in a better mood and make us feel safe,
secure and positive.

I love the colour grey, a charming neutral that I have always
referred to as a true workhorse of a colour because it would work
with just about everything that you put with it. In today’s
fashion world grey as come into its own, flip through your favorite
fashion and shelter magazines and what do you see? Fabulous grey
and yellow rooms, grey with copper, grey with auborigine, grey with
blue and grey with grey, yes grey can stand alone and look
fabulous.

All fashion, home and apparel, works a season ahead. For example,
two weeks ago all in the know with respect to apparel fashion where
in New York city to see what designers had in store for us for next
Spring. Its funny because in the real world we have just begun
worrying about winter and well here we are looking forward to
spring.
Q: Is there anything special I should be
doing for my shrubs I just planted this summer? I have roses,
hydrangeas, spireas, a butterfly bush and some potentillas.
