Gunnel Schmidt piece on my mantel

Christopher Adams piece

Friday morning my good friend, Laurel, and I braved the cold and attended the Ceramics sale at Harvard. Laurel's mom is a potter who was one of the artists to show her work, and I am always astounded at the beautiful things that she creates. I did manage to attend this function sans children (as I can easily say that that would have been a disaster)! It was so nice to walk around in the peace and quiet and take in all the beautiful art, I really had to take four or five looks as my brain could not process it all in one take. I bought some lovely little bowls for Tucker's teachers, and of course I couldn't resist to get some things for myself! I found a beautiful piece by Gunnel Schmidt that is now prominently displayed on my living-room mantel. I also fell in love with some wonderfully whimsical pieces by Christopher Adams, but alas they were out of my price range and I really would need to find the exact spot to hang one before I can invest! Maybe next year... check out the other amazing pieces and info about their next sale at OFA Harvard Ceramics website, it is not to be missed.

I live outside of Boston with my husband, two children, and dog. For the past 8 years I have been working with clients to help them make their home dreams a reality. From helping to build homes from the ground up to helping round out already finished spaces, I listen to my clinets and let their vision guide our process. I have always been a creative person planning spaces and working to make them function better. After completing the Residential Interiors program at Boston Architectural College I learned how to combine my love for funcion and flow with my eye for color, scale, and balance. As a graduate of New York University's Stern School of Business, I understand project planning and budget management. My experience working with clients, contractors, and architects helps to coordinate and streamline the home building and renovation process, helping my clients to have the home they dream of with less of the stress that comes with building and decision making.
