From Vintage to Modern

Trudy Crane October 14, 2014

This house from Domino Magazine has it all from vintage to modern and yet it still works. Very eclectic with a modern tufted sofa and an antique gateleg table in the same room. Super modern sconces in the living room with a shabby style chandelier in the bedroom, yet they both feel like they fit well. I really love the kitchen with the great wallpaper and all of the gold touches. There is so much texture in this home, from the sheepskin throws to the cowhide settee and the amazing variety of rugs and cushions. Very well done..

Beach House Beauty

Trudy Crane July 3, 2014

Such a cute beach house from Domino Magazine! Designed by Anna Burke, it has just the right amount of vintage, rustic charm mixed with a cool Palm Beach vibe. Of course the all white palette with accents of blue and white is one of my all time favourites, so this strikes a perfect note in my books. Love the high ceilings in the home and especially in the kitchen area....with these amazing lamps over open shelves it does not get any better!

Domino does it again for me! Always one of my go to magazines for inspiration!

Simply White and Bright

Trudy Crane April 8, 2014

So love this home from Domino Magazine with white on white walls, floor and ceiling...so gorgeous! What makes it so great is the the punches of colour throughout this amazing white space. The kitchen is perfect with the big island on wheels and marble backsplash....What about the coffee table in the living room? Really like the way it has been styled with the sheepskin.

I am off to Chicago for a few days this week. If you have any suggestions for great restaurants or places to visit please let me know!

Domino Magazine: Colour Issue

Trudy Crane April 3, 2014

The latest issue of Domino Magazine is all about colour and boy is it gorgeous! Of course, where there is colour there needs to be lots of white because colour always looks best against the crispness of white walls and fabrics. I love the way colour is used in these rooms...great wall art, bright printed cushions and rich carpets.

Super stylish rooms and accessories are featured throughout the magazine...as you know it is one of my favourites...and even better now you can download the new app! Yes, you can download the app onto your ipad and browse the articles and shop away...yes you can buy so much of what you see in the mag..on the website..just search in Domino Magazine in iTunes.

Domino Magazine Archives

Trudy Crane March 4, 2014

I was going through the Domino Magazine archives on line today and found some of my favourite photos that influenced my decision to change my decor from pale pastel and white to all white. I used to buy every Domino magazine and pour through each page. I am so happy they decided to bring it back into print! I remember seeing the photo below of Tom Delevan's home and fell in love! It was a small picture and I went back to it many times. So simple but beautiful. I find all of the rooms have really stood the test of time and continue to look great today....filled with well chosen pieces, all it takes is small changes to update them.

Domino Magazine is Back!!

Trudy Crane October 4, 2013

Yes that is right! Domino, my all time favourite decorating magazine (I have every back issue) is being re-launched. It was shut down four years ago by the publisher Condé Nast but fans of Domino have kept the magazine alive through Pinterest, posting old features and photos from the magazine. The editor in chief will be none other than Michelle Williams, who worked at Domino before it closed and went on to become founding editor of the on-line magazine Lonny. Back at Domino now, she is bringing fresh ideas to the new on-line presence and to the print issues out on newsstands next week. On-line you can view and read the article, you can view just the photos of the article and you can shop the items from the article! Such a great way to find the items you love from the magazine. Wishing good luck to the new Domino team!!
