Suunybrae's in Victorian Homes...

It's almost surreal...here is my dear pal Kathy's home...

it is bright and glorious among the pages of the latest Fall issue of Victorian Homes...

It was fun to shoot and write this  3 page featurette on showcasing heirlooms and using them in entertaining. It gives a sweet peek into the parlor and dining room of  Kathy's wonderful home...and if you have a keen eye you will spot artful creations by Earth Angels' artists Letty Worley, Dara DiMagno, Jennifer Lanne and Debbee Thibault.

Kathy's style really deserves the attention. She is a collector and a curator of things that are sentimental, vintage and dear to her.

I love sitting on this couch in the sunny parlor of Sunnybrae...

Just look at these sweet vignettes... 

 She creates the most wonderful of arrangements with everyday things...

A big thanks to Editor in Chief, Hillary Black for allowing me to share these images of Kath's home with Victorian Homes readers...

This is an all around great issue...among the pages you can also spot Michelle Sylvia's Blackberry Briar candles and roomsprays...

And a fun shot of our Hotcakes jewelry offerings...

So run out and grab this issue, it's my fave yet!

...another addiction to a scent story...

Just when I thought I was hopelessly addicted to "Butterfield Bakery"...that's the Blackberry Briar scent that smells better than freshly baked cake and warm cookies...Scent diva, Michelle Sylvia's "Citrus Grove" and "Rosemary Mint" arrived here yesterday...

Sudden;y, it became a happy, aromatherapy kind of day for me and the camera came out and we just started shooting images for ads and the re-launch of the site...

I love her packaging, the all-natural and quality ingredients and the amazing scent stories she concocts...really, she hits the mark with both her candles and room fragrances...

Can you tell we were having fun shooting images for the new site??? Did you hear we will be re-launching with a new look in late summer???

 Look at this line-up...

And my anticipated fave this coming fall...

Apple Clove...mmmm....mmmm 

We are doing a promo too...if you are on the email list you might catch word of it: if you order any two items by The Blackberry Briar and you get free shipping...just mention this BLOG post....
