In 2001, I decided to color wash my bedroom walls pale green...and my stained mahogany furniture no longer matched--so I repainted it, in a design of my own, called "Garden Gate". It was inpsired by an armoire I saw in a magazine, but took on a life of it's own. After this, my bedroom was decorated in crisp, fresh, spring colors.

Most of these images were taken, however, to show off some beloved orchids...

The bathroom had acquired some bittersweet, from an expedition to Deerfield, the previous year.
