Best Kitchen Paint Colors

Tia Pakhi

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: justify;">Kantha Embroidery and beautiful colours,that is what got interested  me in Tia Pakhi.I love these little stitches called Kantha. Kantha stitiches where there from time immemorial,nowadays designers and craftpersons reinvent new designs with age old craft forms.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;">It was to my surprise that they had one of their exhibtions in New Delhi,in one of the beautiful villages in one of the beautiful surroundings of Rose,Hauzkhas. The exhibition seemed quite natural.By the time I reached it was the last day of the exhibition and it was late evening .So photographing the beauties in daylight seemed quite difficult for me so that I had to shoot in the dark.Tia Pakhi has also some brilliantly Indianised shoot for their products.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Tia pakhi cushions made my spring brighter and wonderful.see them in the last post.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

One thing we saw a lot of was wood, wood and more wood.  Wood used as wall applications, beautiful floors designs, cabinets, etc. We saw a lot of barn wood and repurposed old wood, both stained, painted and distressed.  This was very interesting to me as I have just used 100 year old barn wood in my son’s room at the beach house (see below). One of my favorite new products that caught my eye is from a company called Moonish.  </span></div><div align="center"><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-7TI6zxhI_mI/UU3kQXK-OjI/AAAAAAAAIAo/zjnwoUpfOSE/s1600-h/moonish-011113-ny-620%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img alt="moonish-011113-ny-620" border="0" height="379" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-QdNkBoKOWU0/UU3kQwl99MI/AAAAAAAAIAw/6gVq9_8razY/moonish-011113-ny-620_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="moonish-011113-ny-620" width="504" /></span></a></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: medium;">These are marine grade plywood 6x6 tiles that are sold by the square foot. They have four magnetic backing tabs. You apply a receiving magnet to the wall and just stick the tiles on! They are held magnetically. Get tired of them or need a change? Simply lift off and voilà no more tiles. These are great for apartment dwellers, as well as those of you who move around and may want to take these lovely beauties with you.  For the DIY crowd I thought we could do so much with them – back an old cabinet, make a pretty mirror – check out Moonish tiles <a href="http://www.moonishco.com/">HERE</a></span></div><div align="center"><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-o7fmrovmjRc/UU3kRS_lB1I/AAAAAAAAIA0/64F-8ye4np8/s1600-h/wud_1203_Salem_027%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img alt="wud_1203_Salem_027" border="0" height="623" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-xk_aknvF-lM/UU3kRvr2R6I/AAAAAAAAIBA/B7guklKDxjI/wud_1203_Salem_027_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="wud_1203_Salem_027" width="504" /></span></a></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: medium;">We saw lots of Mid Century furniture styles and lines; and some great new artists creating lovely contemporary pieces. I adored the lines and the finishes from WUD Furniture Design.  Here are some of their custom built ins as seen above and below.  </span></div><div align="center"><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-zOKGz_090ZA/UU3kRzX3qQI/AAAAAAAAIBI/XLil1N-KrEk/s1600-h/wud_1204_85N3rd_130%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img alt="wud_1204_85N3rd_130" border="0" height="354" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-5OlBNc-wzQk/UU3kSSeahLI/AAAAAAAAIBQ/O_pqp4wElWQ/wud_1204_85N3rd_130_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="wud_1204_85N3rd_130" width="504" /></span></a></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: medium;">Their tables were beautiful but so hard to photograph, best to go to their website to see them. But what was most impressive was their furniture tops. </span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-CvYSycDzhnk/UU3kS5b6okI/AAAAAAAAIBY/hOwnATR17A8/s1600-h/Wud4-151_HighRes%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img alt="Wud4-151_HighRes" border="0" height="337" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-_GDW-i01gUw/UU3kTQr3vOI/AAAAAAAAIBg/8g9OZCxeDPc/Wud4-151_HighRes_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Wud4-151_HighRes" width="504" /></a></span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: medium;">They use copper, zinc and rolled steel. They encase it in a hard resin, so it is impervious to scratching and stains. And if you think the resin makes it plastic looking, think again. These tops have an incredible true patina which I had difficulty photographing.

I just loved this well constructed, bamboo and cedar pre fab outdoor shower.  Made by a small Massachusetts company called OboRain, it will withstand the New England winters</span><span style="font-size: medium;">.  It comes shipped flat packed and is easily assembled. The design was minimalist and beautiful.

We have been re- plastering almost every wall and adding tons of period style trim work and beadboard through out the entire house.  We also replaced several windows, which helped expand the ocean views. We also changed out a slider to windows, which helped enhance and correct the flow of the interior.</span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-6KhowG-WUCs/UU3kVwwv86I/AAAAAAAAICY/hT5xYu_O60A/s1600-h/Beach%252520exterior%252520Before%25255B6%25255D.jpg"><img alt="Beach exterior Before" border="0" height="331" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-TgL1v0X69xc/UU3kWEIKWAI/AAAAAAAAICg/-kv8JfHScjo/Beach%252520exterior%252520Before_thumb%25255B13%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="Beach exterior Before" width="504" /></a>  </span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: medium;">Here is a Before photo of the five unit contemporary window that was installed in the front of the house several years ago.

WARM.  GRAY.  Its a good thing.<br><br /><a href="http://yournestdesign.blogspot.com/2013/03/looking-for-warm-gray.html#more">Read more »</a>
