Designer Spotlight: Elizabeth Dinkel

Good morning! Love to showcase designers whose work I admire and Elizabeth Dinkel fits right into my description of an "uber talented" designer! Love her style. I had seen a room that she had done for a showhouse in a magazine a few years ago and knew right away this was my kind of decorator. She clearly trends towards a more traditional look, but theres nothing heavy, stuffy, overdone or off putting about any of her rooms. Though some of them are formal, there is an ease and comfort level to the very beautiful spaces she has designed. Some of the bedrooms are just downright dreamy, and the living rooms while sophisticated and stunning are all rooms I can easily see being very comfortable entertaining family and friends in. Elizabeth's firm is based in West Hollywood, California and was established in 2004 after nearly 18 years as an interior designer. Her talents take her all over the United States and she has had her work featured in nearly every important design publication.  So take a look...what do you think of her style? Do you have a favorite room? Enjoy your Saturday!


Before I begin......I had to share with you my friends gorgeous hydrangea beds in front of her house, I had peony envy with others, now I have hydrangea envy! How gorgeous are these flowers!! Then on my way home noticed the only farm of its kind in my area has opened for the season! I was so excited...nothing like seeing that small nondescript sign beckoning you to their stands of still warm fresh fruits and vegetables...so I traveled the dirt path road and had a field day buying all the seasons freshest. Wish my camera didn't run out of camera, the basil garlic and strawberries were so huge and picture perfect! I came home and promptly made a delicious round of brushetta and a delicious fresh pesto.....gotta love summer cooking!










 Now moving on to Elizabeth and her gorgeous work...........
