SiS BooM SisTA!


Venture to this event and you are in for a treat unmatched. Jen Paganelli of Sis Boom has opened her home. It's festooned with a cornucopia of color and pattern...delish accessories and clothing, decorations and follies, pillows that made me swoon and her signature fabrics by the yard...ohhh ahhhh...



I was as captivated by the creations as I was with their creator. She is clever, kind and obviously, very willing to be silly. But don't be fooled by the fun factor, this lady is one smart cookie who works hard and inspires those around her!








Her home in Wilton, CT plays host to this annual event...Rosie and Char are there on the porch having angel food cake and berries...







Color and pattern unite every room...
I love the eye candy!


...a peek into the studio...








...machines that stitch magic...
..the walls glimmer and shimmer...








...a comfy couch hosts pillows galore...









...meanwhile on the first floor, a showcase for her creations and Sis Boom textiles blooms...









Char picked a dress for herself...this one is a yummy linen with a great "twirl factor"...













I need a tunic!






















Here we are, The Jens, with Barbara Strawser...Barbara and her work have been on my "must have for Earth Angels" list for a few years...
Thanks to Jen Paganelli, Barbara will be joining my band of Earth Angels. So watch for news on Barbara and her work...
I admit this was my first business transaction conducted in a tutu , and you know if felt quite natural.

So get on that plane, a boat or train and get to the event of the weekend. You will find your appetite for color quenched and the mood a brand of festive that only magic breeds.
xxoo and a big THANKS TO JANE DAGMI for sharing her Jen story
