And just like that, this will be the final time I

And just like that, this will be the final time I cut my peonies in this house. As we embark on a journey to return to the East Coast, our lives come full circle. It’s a bittersweet moment, and I will always cherish the accomplishments and milestones we achieved during our time here, but above all, I am grateful for the incredible people we’ve had the pleasure of meeting over the past six years. Stay tuned as I take you along on our house-hunting adventure and the imminent remodeling that awaits us. Columbus, Ohio, thank you for the amazing memories and experiences you’ve provided us. #juliepaulinodesign #julieandev #classicinteriors #timelessdesign #timelessinteriors #interiordesignerlife #nycinteriordesigner #newjerseyinteriordesigner #vogueliving #housebeautiful #westchesterdesigner

The front part of our home. Boston ivy can indee

The front part of our home. Boston ivy can indeed be a topic of debate among gardening enthusiasts. It is known for its vigorous growth and ability to quickly cover walls and structures, which some people find invasive and potentially damaging to buildings. However, others appreciate its charming and nostalgic appearance, especially when it transforms into vibrant hues of red and orange during the fall season. One advantage of Boston ivy is that it does not use suction cups or tendrils to attach itself to surfaces like some other vines do. Instead, it uses adhesive discs at the tips of its tendrils to stick to surfaces. This means that it is less likely to cause damage to well-maintained walls, particularly if they are made of brick, stone, or other sturdy materials Pruning is necessary to control its growth and prevent it from encroaching on windows, gutters, or other areas where it may cause issues. Ultimately, whether you love or hate Boston ivy is a matter of personal preference. Some people appreciate its classic and nostalgic appearance, while others may be concerned about its potential to cause damage. With proper care and maintenance, you can enjoy the charm of your Boston ivy while minimizing any potential negative effects. #ivyplant #bostonivy #homefacade #architecture #garden #newyorkinteriordesign #interiordesignlife

A big, uproarious shout-out to all the retirees who generously sacrifice their time to be school cross guards! Your commitment to protecting our children from the perilous dangers of... well, crossing the street is truly awe-inspiring. Thank you for your "Stop, Look, and Listen" service! Now, I must admit, it's a tad peculiar for me to express gratitude when my 14-year-old son is more interested in navigating the treacherous terrain of the school bus. But hey, who am I to judge the thrill he gets from avoiding traffic jams while maintaining his balance on a bumpy ride? Photos by @sightlineinteriorsphoto

Today, beauty can be found in the smallest of details and the grandest of gestures. It resides in the gentle caress of a spring breeze, carrying the sweet scent of blossoming flowers. It emanates from the genuine smile shared between friends, expressing love, warmth, and connection. Beauty emerges in the harmony of colors painted across the evening sky, as the sun bids farewell, casting a mesmerizing palette of hues. It dwells in acts of kindness, when strangers extend a helping hand to those in need, illuminating the goodness that resides within humanity. Today, beauty can be discovered in the resilience of nature, as it rejuvenates and flourishes despite the challenges it faces. It lingers in the melodic notes of music, which have the power to stir emotions and transport us to ethereal realms. In this intricate tapestry of life, beauty can be found in every moment, waiting to be embraced and celebrated.

Find beauty my friends.

I'm feeling a bit blue this morning. After attending a wonderful event by @lenoxhillneighborhoodhouse for a great cause at @cipriani, I just wish there was an event like this every day. I'm extremely proud of the table I created with the invaluable help of @plazaflowernyc who designed the most elegant and opulent flower arrangement. I'd like to extend my thanks to @lobjet for their generous lending of the beautiful plates and chargers. The custom-made tablecloth fabric was sourced from @rubelli_group. Unfortunately, someone took my tablecloth and flowers without my consent. It's disappointing, but I understand that these things can happen anywhere. I'd like to give a special mention to the accessories we used - our French cutlery, Laguiole, was from @julieandev. Most importantly, I want to thank my wonderful family for their help and support. My dear niece, @spicyhottamalee and husband - I love you both!

Belle Vivir is an Interior Design blog based on the belief that living beautiful goes beyond the visual. It’s a lifestyle where all the senses are at play. Consciously or not, we are uniformly influenced by our surroundings, from our choices on food, fashion and home decor, where we inadvertently absorb feelings and emotions that play a role in our state of mind. Our surroundings influence our beings. Having a warm, comfortably functional and beautiful home to come back to at the end of a long and hectic day, is what we all covet. A happy home which should render us with either a sense of comfort or reward at the end of our busy days. Comfort + Beauty = Happiness
