Here it is Sunday afternoon again! Drizzly, cloudy, and a bit windy...hopefully no tornado being that it is tornado weather!
For today's "favorite reads," I'm beginning with The Art of Tile. This is a wonderful book that outlines several types of tiling techniques and gives a good background on the use of tile in homes!
My next pick for the day is The Surface Designer's Handbook.
After watching a recent episode of Project Runway where the designers made their own printed fabric, I found this book at a local bookstore.
I love the spiral binding and the book is packed with ideas for "textiling!"
Simple Home: Calm Spaces for Comfortable Living is another great Sunday "read!" I am all for creating calming spaces and love the presentation of simple design in this book.
My last selection for today is, Private Places: Creating a Peaceful Space of Your Own at Home... and who doesn't need that?!
I picked this book up at Hastings Books, which has a great selection of new as well as used titles. As you can see, this one was in the "used" category and was under $10!
So, there you have it! Now, I'm off to get my coffee and... READ!

Welcome to my many days of decorating blog! As a "closet designer" I engage in decorating and interior design projects after hours. This blog is dedicated to all those with an eye for color and an innate perspective of design!
