Here are a few random pics from my visit to Paula's home
at the beginning of June.
Coincidentally, the week I was there...
an old photo of her home appeared on the cover of this local paper.
She's so clever at creating interesting vignettes...
Love this hairpin iron fence...
It's all those fascinating details....
See that little window way up at top?
That's my bedroom...
at least when I go to visit...
Paula's niece used to call it the "princess" room.
The lacy climbing hydrangea curtain was so romantic!
I bet all those hydrangea buds are in full bloom by now!
I don't know what it's like where you are but here...
...even here...way up in the Adirondack Mountains...
it's over 90 degrees and hot, hot, hot!
Time for a swim in the lake!
Stay cool!
:)

Paula's home is fabulous! I love all the detail everywhere you look. Pretty garden, too!

Gorgeous! And all the whites make it serene and cool.
Charming! Absolutely charming!
She has quite an imagination to come up with all those clever displays. Lovely home and gardens!
Paula certainly has a flair for vignettes. She has done a fantastic job of decorating. I believe some people come by this talent naturally and Paula certainly seems to fit the bill!
It's 90 degrees here too and will climb to 100 by Sunday...yep summer is here! :)
You just made my day! I've been anxiously awaiting to see Paula's home. She's amazing and inspiring.
Have a good week,

110 in the shade and no lakes here in the Arizona desert, your pics made me feel nice and cool.
I can see why you're kindred spirits. You both have an eye for the unique, beautiful, and quirky ~ which makes for an enchanting environment. Loved it all!
So many beautiful things, and yes, she does have a way with vignettes. My favorite is that arched architectural piece, love it all!
Dear Laura,
Paulas home is so beautiful, inside and out. I love every nook and cranny. You and all of your friends are so talented and I get so much inspiration from all of your homes and your collections. They are all such a pleasure to look at and it's lovely to see all of your great ideas ........ just a few, well chosen pieces , put together,look brilliant. Your posts always make me go and search out things that I have and make me bring them out again and re arrange everything !!!!
.....and, so sorry for my absence lately .... my computer finally gave up on me and I am now getting to grips with my new MacBook Pro !! Much love Laura. XXXX
So Nice!!! Hot Hot Hot even in Italy my dear!!
Beautiful! I LOVE vignettes and Paula's are so much fun!!! I bet I could spend hours and maybe even days just taking in each and every detail! Thanks for sharing your visit - totally enjoyed it!

What a totally gorgeous home ! The garden is divine and the interior is as well. Thankyou for sharing x
Beautiful and serene. Thank you again, for sharing your little trip with us. I have never seen a Hairpin gate, it's so sweet. Paula certainly has a way with details. Stay cool, we are expecting temps around 100 here in South Texas for the next few days. Planning a tubing trip this weekend.
Smiles,
Carol
What a lovely way to live with collections! So nice that you shared your visit!
So many lovely things and displayed so beautifly. Would love to see the whole inside of her beautiful home. I know we are missing much not seeing it all. Thanks for sharing even if it left me wanting more ;)
I love all the natural light touching all the rusty and shabby elements and I love all of the bits of nature intermingled in as well. I used to live near Amsterdam NY. I miss the Autumn especially!
Oh, my, Laura,
She is the Queen of Vignettes. but, then, you are, too. How are you doing? I am doing pretty well. I hope to be around more.
Hugs,
Suz
Thank you Laura for always sharing your friend Paula's gorgeous home and vignettes with us. Just doing a little catching up on my fave blogs and of course I had to stay here for longer and enjoyed myself very much!
Want me to send some of our cool German weather over? So far we only had 10 beautiful Summer like days and that was back in May. Today it's raining again *sigh*
Wishing you happy Summer days at the lake!
Carola
