DecRenew Interior's Photoshoot

(photo by Ruthie Staalsen)
As I posted in my last post, I had a photo shoot this weekend in my home.  Ross Odom, Photographer wanted some home interior shots to add to his portfolio.  Thanks to Ross, the photo's do capture the way I mix items in my own personal design style.  You'll see the international flair I've tried to incorporate from our travels that tell a story about our lives and the places we've lived.  Our humble abode is the place where I experiment with design and it's the place that I especially love to be when I need down time. It's far from perfect, but that is what makes it feel comfortable and inviting.  I hope others feel the warmth when they are welcomed in through the front doors.  I thought I'd share a few of my favorites with you.
Some of the photo's below are ones that I took that same day.

Photo Shoot Prep

(Photos by Ruthie Staalsen)
I'm preparing for a photo shoot tomorrow and am having lots of fun preparing vignettes for it.  I just spent a fortune at Central Market and my creativity was going wild as I walked down the vegetable, fruit, wine, cheese and bread isles!
The grocery store has lots of treasures!
The above vignette was arranged on a round mirror I had (you know I'm a believer of "using what you have") and I think it's coming together!  The best part is that my husband and I get to enjoy the goodies this weekend.
These Asian Pears are enormous and have such great texture and color.
These huge Hydrangea will go in this moss covered urn and will look so soft and natural!
I'll keep you posted with more photo's later after the photographer does his magic!
