Yesterday I shared some pictures from a garden tour that Tom and I took over the weekend. Today I want to show you the pictures from my favorite stop on the tour, a tudor home in the Sunset Hill area of KC. This planted urn on a pedestal and antique fountain are two of the first things […]

Tom and I have discovered garden tours. Well, I have discovered them and he’s happy to go along. We went on our first tour a couple of weeks ago, and it was interesting and the gardens were impressive, but not quite our taste.

Last fall I ran across a garden in Kansas City Spaces magazine that had me poring over the pictures. So many details to take in. That’s a mirror in the above picture, by the way. And note the chandelier hanging from a branch over the table. The gardens are amazing, as you can see, and I […]

Well earlier this month I did something that I’ve been wanting to do forever: tour Mary Carol Garrity’s home. Mary Carol Garrity is the owner of the home decor store, Nell Hill’s.

My Aunt Janice is an amazing woman. She’s a talented artist, inspired decorator, an incredible gardener as you’ll soon see. She’a graciously allowed me to share her pictures of her Oregon garden here. As the summer heat has turned everything here in the midwest brown, I am loving looking at these lush pictures.
