Green Interiors
This life is short, but very, very sweet. I’ve been dealing with a couple issues in my life recently, Mother Theresa passing, my daughter Giovanna leaving for college and taking on a job in an office, to help with college tuition for Gi. The office is nice, the girls are so sweet, (well, most of them) and the Gentleman who owns the business is young , good-looking, a talanted surgeon and a great guy!
But I’m missing my design friends! well to be quite honest, I miss being up on the ladder, in the middle of my designs, with the noisy construction workers that I just can’t leave alone,because I constantly have to put my 2 cents in !! I miss Wednesdays at Denise Maurer Interiors, with Betsy Mattice and Patty Miller, but most of all I miss sitting at my computer during the day and taking a few minutes to blog to you and share my projects, ideas and news about whats got my attention in the Design World!!
I’m rethinking taking on this extra job, its taking me away from my first love, Design so maybe just working harder at my current business will bring in the extra cash for Giovanna’s education! Some new ventures have come my way, one is a great women I met through the internet. I am looking forward to meeting Carol from Green Interiors in person. She is a client that has opened a Green Design store in MA. The name is Green Interiors! She is coming to my neck of the woods for a couple of hours to meet with me and see my workroom (which is pretty impressive if I say so myself) . We have been talking by phone for a couple of months and I have enjoyed our early morning conversations, starting our days off sharing ideas and working together to get projects on track, and collaborating on designs. I can’t wait to meet her, I know we’ll hug and get right down to business. No chatting about the weather and good local shopping. We’ll get straight to the heart of things…our faith, our businesses, our families, our journeys, our struggles, our dreams for the future. Conversations like that are good for the soul. It’s amazing the kind of connections that are formed through this crazy social media and blog world.
Well, I’ve learned that when you meet internet friends, you bring a gift, so I’m bringing her one of my amazing bags made of vintage fabric. that my friend Kitty makes. I can’t wait to see if this Adventure will bring me back to Styleland full-time!
As Always, Stay tuned….
XOXO

We miss you too.
Michele, you have too much to offer to be sitting behind a desk. Get out there and get enough designing jobs to help pay for Giovanna’s tuition. I know how difficult it is. My entire pay was used for college tuition for six years. And you know what? I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. I think of you and your Mom often. Tap your left shoulder and Mother Theresa will help.
These are great photos. The strineey of an all white bed is so wonderful. I see photos like the ones you have here and it’s tempting to change it up but then I climb into my snow white piles and it is so heavenly. Looks like you totally get that :). All these beds are so gorgeous.
