Before and After, Occasional Table

I recently repainted this small vintage table that holds my magazines.


The shape reminded me of a Jonathan Adler table I'd seen and I was tempted to paint it orange but settled on this turquoise which is more appropriate in my living room.


I paired it with two prints by one of my favorite local artists, Addie Rementer.


It was exciting to see some of Addie's gorgeous original pieces in Georgia and Barbara's home from Apartment Therapy's recent Room for Color Contest. So pretty. Click here for a previous post about Addie.

Open Studios- Featured Artist Addie Rementer

This weekend The Cultural Council of Santa Cruz County began its annual Open Studios Tour and I had the opportunity to revisit local artist Addie Rementer of The Heart Wood Gallery.

Addie is one of my favorites. I love the color, texture and bit of whimsy she adds to her mixed media pieces. Some of her works are very sophisticated while others are playful, but I love them all. Addie is also an Etsy artist offering a collection of her greeting cards.

Imaginary Friends is on of Addie's prints that I have in my own home.
