Since creating the “to be continued” blog, I’ve been closing each post with the words “dwell in possibilities.” I must confess that I borrowed this phrase from the great poet, Emily Dickinson. I saw her quote and realized that it summed up what I am doing as a professional home stager and interior designer.

I am most grateful to Ms. Dickinson for her insightful and inspiring phrase.

Regardless of the size or price range of a house, my objective is to find the possibilities in that house. I am looking for those unique features of that house and finding possible ways to accentuate them for the potential buyer. I am analyzing those unusual spaces that buyers find difficult to understand upon first glance and finding possible functional uses for those spaces.

In the end, my mission is to help the potential buyer see how they could dwell in the possibilities of this house!

The Wonderful Surprise at The Merchandise Mart --- LinenMe

As promised, my Friday treat will be more information about LinenMe, a wonderful surprise during our recent visit to the Chicago Merchandise Mart.  We met, LinenMe showroom manager, Nancy Hosty, who educated us on the great things produced by LinenMe.  We learned so much about their draperies, bedding, table clothes, bath towels, scarves and clothes.  All LinenMe clothes and accessories are made of 100% natural linen. 

The LinenMe textile designs are produced in a small family-owned manufacturing facility in Lithuania.  As they explain on their website (http://www.linenme.com/ ), it is “a country with deep traditions in flax growing, weaving and linen production. It’s an honour to be able to present a little piece of heritage of this small Baltic country with true masters of hand hemstitching and embroidering.”

We have a sample of photos that illustrate some of the incredible things the LinenMe team is producing with their versatile and beautiful natural linen.  Spend some time with our photos and make sure to visit their website. 

Remember to always dwell in possibilities!
