Last week I enjoyed a beautiful week on the Carolina coast with LOTS of food and family fun! I’m lucky enough to own a cottage (and I mean cottage) on the coast and manage to find time to work while I’m there. After the turkey was gone, I spent a gorgeous afternoon checking on a few projects. It will be a few weeks before they’re complete, but it was so exciting to see the progress and results of months of decisions and hard work. Please excuse the photo quality….only had my iPhone with me.

I absolutely love the sleek mosaic tile backsplash and leathered granite in this classic kitchen (if you knew this client, I promise you would want to be invited to dinner).

In a different house, this is what greets you as you walk in the front door. Whitney Blair is known for signature trim detail and the coffer in this foyer is a perfect example.

This classic bath with crema marfil marble countertops and coordinating tile backsplash is going to be perfect. Notice the detail on the cabinetry too!

And, a timeless kitchen with custom cabinetry by the amazing Kirk Riffel with Creative Cabinetry. I cannot say enough about Kirk’s talent!

As you can tell, I have a great appreciation for all of the craftsmen I work with every day. Tile is always one of my favorite design elements and Southeastern Tile is one of the best….and supplied all of the tile in the photos above.

In a few more short weeks, these homeowners are going to be enjoying their new homes for the holidays! So exciting….
