Design Swirl: Bouquets to Art Contest Winners!

Elementals...because every space deserves to be adorned

Lemons, roses, jasmine and bulbs in the garden.

Tropical shrubs poolside.

Small outdoor surprises - a planted urn, an unusual plant, a watering dish for birds and frogs - glimpsed through foliage.

Sparkling clean windows and mirrors.

Doors thrown wide open for fresh air and neighborhood sounds.

Freshly-laundered linens.

Fragrant flowers - freesias, lilacs, hyacinths and lilies - on a desk.

Grandmother's antique dressing table.

A touch of zebra, a suggestion of equestrian.

Crystal lamps, silver frames and objects in classic, geometrical shapes: a ball, an egg, a cube, or a triangle.

A French provenance. A Louis-style chair, book, pen or image.

Organza bags filled with gardenia aroma beads, tied with ribbon, and hung from door knobs.

One room in a pale shade of yellow.

Contrasting piping outlining a sofa, chair or pillow.

A hint of music.

A pop of persimmon.

And the family, friends, heroes and pets who decorate our life.
