Paint It What I Tell You

The Color Workshop that Jessica of Design Wonderland and I did together at Sukio Design Co. this past weekend was lots of fun! I’m so glad that Jessica asked me to join her in leading the workshop, and was thrilled to get to spend time in Desiré’s fantastic new home accessory store.

We met a bunch of creatively-minded and interesting people on Saturday and Sunday, which is something that designers live for!  We talked walls, paint, wallpaper, accessories, and even met one person with a fantastic federal-style gold mirror that was salvaged from the old DC General Hospital’s basement: green AND glamorous! To hear Jessica describe some of the highlights, keep reading here over at Design Wonderland.

Me, just excited to be around pretty things. See those Adler pillows in the back? (image via Sukio Design Co.)

Hopefully we’ll be leading some more workshops or designer Q&A sessions in the coming months, so stay tuned for more!

For those of you in the D.C. area, Washington Fine Properties is sponsoring a Home and Design Weekend on March 19th-2oth!  The participants include virtually all of the fantastic design merchants on 14th Street NW, ranging from Reincarnations Furnishings to Timothy Paul to Miss Pixies to Vastu. You can see the full list on the WFP event webpage. There will be new spring collections, artist-in-residence’s original works, and lots of workshops and treats for you to partake in…for free!

I am especially happy to announce that I will be leading one of the workshops with my friend and fellow designer, Jessica over at Design Wonderland.  We’ll be at Sukio Design Co. on Saturday and Sunday from noon until one for a mini-class that’s all about color!  Goodies are provided by Graham & Brown, and there will be an “ask-the-designers” Q&A to follow.

Come visit Sukio Design Co. and ask us some of your burning color questions!

Sukio Design Co. is a brand new retail store and creative space that contains a beautiful collection of artwork, accessories, and small furnishings from a variety of colorful and eclectic designers: it’s modern glamor at it’s best.
