Just got my copy of Bobby McAlpine’s book The Home Within Us
Loved listening to the Skirted Roundtable’s interview
of Bobby McAlpine here …
Wonderful book…wonderful interview…
Beyond the architectural perfection
and perfectly poised antiques…paint color is
only just a small part of the magic…
but a welcome jolt of inspiration…
