Visiting
with mon amie, Marion is always a treat. We both share a love for
cappuccinos and croissants, antiques and vintage finds, and priceless
little treasures found at local second-hand stores.
Her home, or "nest", as she calls it, is an amazing cottage here in Costa Mesa, filled with family heirlooms from Germany and beautiful little things she loves. Marion has such a gift for bringing them all together in interesting vignettes.
I really love her use of turquoise and blues sprinkled throughout her home. Here are some of my favorite spots in "the nest".

Marion does have the best taste ever. I loved seeing her home in Romantic Homes magazine and here on your blog, and finding some of the treasures she's bought from me tucked into her beautiful vignettes - looks like they have been there forever. She is very talented!
