VENEZIA MOON

When the moon hits your eye
Like a big-a pizza pie
That's amore



What could be more amore than a full moon over Venezia? Sometimes, without plot or plan, the Universe aligns perfectly. Our only responsiblity in that moment is to drink deeply from it's beauty and abundance.

BURLAP ITALIAN STYLE

The expected: these Italian coffee bean sacks make an eye catching display.




















The unexpected:




Some of my fondest moments are being out in the world wondering around, expecting the unexpected, and viola, there it is! The most ordinary use of something so common juxtaposed with fine linens, wools and silks becomes extraordinary. Such are these stunning window displays recently seen while on holiday in Venezia.
