Living Etc. Feature

I'm thrilled with the "Dream Weaver" feature story in the November issue of Living Etc. magazine. The article showcases me, my products and my home (and my two boys) with wonderful images taken by Stacy Bass. 

Kips Bay Showhouse

Last night I attended the Opening Night Preview of The Kips Bay 2010 Show House. I was excited to see two of my Hand-painted pillows and an Ombre throw (see below) that the wonderful designer Jennifer Post chose for her penthouse space in the Show House. The space, consisting of a his and hers massage room, a lounge and an outdoor terrace, is not to be missed. I encourage everyone to go see this year's Show House, which is stunning and, most importantly, for a worthy cause.

Nobel Prize Win for Peru

Congratulations to Mario Vargas Llosa, the Peruvian author, for winning the 2010 Nobel Prize for Literature! A wonderful acknowledgment for an amazing writer and a native of my beloved Peru. For anyone looking to read a masterful book, I would especially recommend The War of the End of the World.
