Monday Madness…or It’s 5 O’clock Somewhere?

June 28, 2010 by carole Leave a Comment

Busy Monday had me thinking that a bar would be nice. Although my usual quaff only requires a corkscrew and a nice popping sound, I still like the idea of a bar. I don’t have a trolley cart but I have a wooden counter area that “serves” as a bar. Had a lucite tray that was collecting dust in a drawer, and all the bar implements scattered around…sooo I just put them all together…

…the ice bucket, funky dome-topped shaker, lucite bar tools, and vintage stir sticks were all scored at various antique/thrift stores for under ten bucks each. The book came from a funky new store and the corkscrew came from the grocery store on a particularly desperate evening. I feel better…and now have all the implements ready for a “signature” drink I’ll be serving at a “hootenanny” party this Saturday.

Carole Marcotte

My name is Carole and I am a caring, efficient and passionate interior decorator. I help clients create stylish, functional homes that respect their past while designing for their future. After extensive research, I work tirelessly to blend clients’ existing and new decor into the overall design scheme. I love what I do.

My ideal for the design world in general (I can dream big, can’t I?): People will stop buying crap, refurbish and highlight their existing treasures and, if they absolutely need more stuff, buy only resale items (vintage, antique, consignment or the like). And if it must be new stuff, it will provide significant function, environmental sustainability or support our artists and thereby feed our soul. I am on a mission…care to join me?

My blog is a little bit decorating tips, a little bit travel, and a whole lotta love and design musings. Xo
