Eloise at The Plaza

Happy Thanksgiving week everybody!  Billy is off to New York~ and staying at The Plaza! Iconic, famous, and historic, and yet totally up to date, each room comes with its own i-pad for maximum convenience, including room service, and printing out boarding passes, etc.
Did you know that The Plaza was the first hotel in the world to have Sherle Wagner faucets and basins in every room? There is even a Gatsby Suite, inspired by the Baz Luhrman film!  F. Scott Fitzgerald was a big patron of the hotel in his day.  David Hicks, the famous London decorator kept a suite which he designed entirely!  The list is endless ~ click here

April Inspirations

Sherle Wagner is a favorite resource - and when I saw this stunning sconce by designer Amanda Nisbet for Urban Electric Company, I thought of the Sherle Wagner tigers eye knobs...I also plan to specify their rock crystal faucet handles and the amethyst knobs as well.

April in Paris! Here's an apartment there, by famed french designer, Jacques Grange...am crazy for the elegant simplicity of this look. Notice how the architecture comes into play.

Imagine Amandas sconces in the same space as the tigers eye knobs! These would tie in with the eau de nil silk Monsieur Grange used on the bed shown here. Imagine! Enjoy! DF *****
