More zinnias! Love using these epergnes for simple, dramatic arrangements. Found them at M, a great design shop in #beaufort SC this past winter. Table is at home at #rancholazaca in #losolivosover for #afewfriendsfordinner over the weekend. Plates from #astierdevilatte Vintage napkins. Votive candle holders a gift from a dear friend. #alfresco #dinnerparty #tablesettings #centerpiece #epergne #zinnias

A gorgeous selection of vases, cachepots, salt cellars, butter dishes, bowls, and plates awaits at the Global Eye Art Collective in Santa Ynez, a beautifully curated collection of art, ceramics, books, jewelry, housewares, and comestibles. Ceramicist Kristen Cramer and partner Michael Robertson teamed recently to open this shop in the Valley, next door to the cool new design shop #laval. #globaleyeartcollective #santaynezvalley #tablescape #kristencramer #kristencramerpottery @globaleyeart

Sooo excited finally to see Katie Ridder and Peter Pennoyer’s new book, A House in the Country. Everything this great couple does is superb, and this book about their own wonderful house is no exception, with ideas and inspiration on every page. I mean look at this hallway with blue trompe l’oieul wall paper and plum carpet, wow, and the Chinese red door… Written with Anne Walker, photos by Eric Piesacki. @katieridderinc @ericpiasecki
