Screened Porch

I let a butcher block go thinking, 'what would I ever do with it?'   Jeri knew exactly what to do, below, on her covered porch.
 Intuitively she knew, below, it's important to make flat walls 3-D.   
 Builders never complete a house properly with shutters, it's your job.
Her porch is mostly black, white, blue.  She wears a lot of man tailored white shirts with black leggings & a pop of pink lipstick.

I always look to what my clients wear for the secondary colors to their trinity.

    My heart skipped a beat when I laid eyes on that butcher block! How WONDERFUL!

    I might be on the right track, regarding my porch. . . I painted a wall shelf to hang today. This is the kick in the pants to go ahead and do it!

    Signature clothing colors? Khaki & black with a pop of color: usually red or aqua/turquoise. Not sure how to incorporate on the porch, but something to think about!

    You are an uber-designer. Used to work with a principal at a large firm, and she was an architect and interior designer (ran the latter dept)...perfectly matched like you note Jeri as. Though a hopeless desert phobe as long as she stayed in familiar home town of Abq...

    Your blog is downright dangerous to read. In the best possible way, of course.
    Cheers to life in 3-D
