Coffee Talk

I absolutely adore Teresa's work. I especially love her cafe cups and blackboard paintings. I asked her to create a blackboard inspired painting incorporating out last name as a gift for Hubby. This is the fabulous result! Our espresso/cappuccino maker is in our breezeway/mudroom and gets a lot of light, I should have photographed this in a different room! If you are not familiar with Teresa, check out her blog. She has a fabulous style and has recently done some work for Romantic Homes.

    This is great -- what a nice gift! Ever since kid-the-elder has started doing chalk boards for local restaurants, I've become much more attracted to what can be done! I like the elegance and simplicity of this.

    And by the way, you are the fourth "Romantic Home" reference I've seen on blogs in the past half hour. This is telling me something I need to pursue...
