I just saw these images on Fashionable Interiors…
…and I realized that I’ve actually written about the artist, Paul Villinski before. In fact – it was my very first blog post on Wishing True!
It’s been almost two years now. And THAT’S a lot of pretty. Thanks for following.
Here is a super cute little online book to tell you:

As I sip my morning tea…
I’ve always had a bit of a thing for little boxes. My mother may have started it by buying them for me when I was little. So there is nothing I like more than a pretty box or in this case, tea tin:
All of these are loose tea packages that you can buy on Pearl River. Morning tea PLUS a pretty box for storing your various bits and bobs. This tea doesn’t have to be green to be green.
I was so quick to post the Furbish giveaway links that I didn’t poke around on High Gloss and see the others.

These paintings combine two of my absolute favorite things: beautifully detailed depictions of lovely things and chinoiserie. And when I say “chinoiserie” I don’t mean any little nod to an incredibly overused decor term. I mean actual pottery. Blue and white china. Chinese Rose Famille.
I’m swooning.
Literally.
These images came from the Catherine Asquith Gallery. Their description of the artist:
“Chin Hoe displays a mastery over the brush as well as an expertise at composition. He has finessed a refreshing contemporary interpretation of classic Western still-life – the Oriental antique-wares bring grace and poise to an otherwise traditional theme. Intricate details – the flutter of dragonfly wings, soft tendrils of foliage, graceful translucent drapes – and a more vivid palette have infused his recent artworks with a new vitality.”

Ooops! Missed a day. And I was on such a daily blogging roll too.
Back on the wagon this week. And I’ll start with jewelry. I’m pretty sure I found these silk and satin creations from La Raffinerie on The City Sage. Aren’t they lovely?
And this one is pretty cool too:
See the entire collection HERE.
Love these crazy dancer pictures by Jordan Matter (discovered on Rickshaw Design).
Even the bizarre ones…
…and the mildly disconcerting ones…
“Don’t give it away for free,” indeed!
Seriously though – so cool!
Not sure where I found Michelle Armas’ work…but isn’t it lovely?
Do you match your decor to your art or match your art to your decor? OR do you not even think about that kind of coordination at all? These pieces would appeal to any decorating approach. They stand up on their own without any correlation to decor, but they would work so well with SO many different design aesthetics.
Does that make sense? Oh well – at least that’s my own inexpert opinion.
Bottom line – pretty stuff. Want to see more?
I was thrilled to see not one, not two, but THREE pictures of women wearing Romona Keveza at the Golden Globes!
I have known her since I was a little girl. And I wore one of her dresses on my wedding day. I couldn’t be more proud of our dear family friend. Know anyone getting married? Her bridal gowns are to die for!
