I’m purposely leaving alone some disintegrating wallpaper from the late 1800s barely hanging on to a few hidden corners of our bathroom wall after a previous owners’ lazy renovation. So, why you might ask? To hold on tightly to the magic of vintage gems. Their subtle presence throughout the nooks of this house help me remember…the way it used to be.

An exquisite makeover to the old time porcelain-over-cast-iron farmhouse sink is the lovely Ray bathroom ceramic washbasin by Michael Hilgers. The tapered wooden legs designed with decorative metal bars also serve as perfect towel racks. Fastened to the wall is the water faucet and on/off knob. To complete the look hangs a coordinating square mirror with rounded corners. This beautiful collection is full of character with just a hint of modern appeal. Coming soon at Ex.t Shop

I find a way to fearlessly provoke your senses and take you by the heart to whatever it is I’m writing about. My sweet spot is creative writing, but for the last 20 years I have been providing freelance content for publications on sustainability and green practices, design, architecture, fashion, and non-profit charity. Recently all wrapped up in producing my first book. I have bounced from NYC to Indianapolis, but my true home is a lovely small town in Central Pennsylvania where there’s a legit drive-your-tractor-to-school-day.
