A Room of Her Own - Charlotte Moss' Sleeping Porch/Study

I thought you might like to see where Charlotte does her collage art that I posted about earlier this week.

As you can see, she has all her magazines and collage supplies nicely tucked away in the bookshelves behind her bed.  There's a divan under the window with lots of light for browsing through her magazines for ideas.  An antique  daybed to stretch out on for a power nap, or as Charlotte says, "a perch for Oscar and Daisy while I work". An architect's desk where she cuts and pastes her collages. And a writing desk.

This is what the sleeping porch looked like before Charlotte re-decorated as seen in the first three images.  Notice the painted floor is the same in all images.

The Hamptons Home and Gardens of Charlotte Moss

Good morning, Everyone!

It's looking like it's going to be another beautiful day here on the Island.........the sun is shining and I am anxious to get out into our backyard and start on the springtime garden chores.........so much to do!

But, I wanted to share the Hampton's home and garden of Charlotte Moss, probably my favorite designer of all...........she is such an interesting lady with seemingly limitless talent and energy.

I received her book about collage art for my birthday in February and I've been making some collages since then.........I, too, have been a magazine fiend since I was a teenager, so I have more than my share of source material..........

When I came upon her Hampton's gardens in the latest issue of Veranda, I thought you might like to see them and her home there.

She certainly knows how to live a full life, as she has a number of homes, has published numerous books, is famous for her impeccable taste and interior designs, travels frequently and is self-publishing a book on the gardens of France, is very involved with charitable fundraisers, has her own fabric and furniture line and still has time to socialize, entertain, make collages and indulge in her real passion - gardening!

I know she has household help and assistants for her many projects, but she amazes me with her energy!

Enjoy!
