Merry Christmas from Tahoe. My client and friend Barbie sent me pictures of the Tahoe project all decked out for Christmas so I thought I would share them with you. Barbie has done floral design for years so you are in for a treat! Here is a shot of the house as you are approaching from the street. Look at the beautiful wreath on the front door.

Barbie and I did a little rearranging while I was there and we were looking for a 36” table. 36” round tables are not all that plentiful. We spotted the Sylvia table on the PB website. ...

It is turning out to be one of the most interesting areas in terms of design . As always Dave ...
