When you can turn it into a pool house instead!!! Okay, first off I know I have been M.I.A. and I apologize. Hopefully one or two of you still read this occasionally. Maybe it is because on my days off I am by the pool instead of in front of the computer. Which inspired this post....
The backyard that first inspired me, featured in both C Magazine and Bazaar (I threw out both mags but I believe Mary McDonald or Ruthie Sommers decorated the home this pool belongs to). A lot of homes in LA that were built in the '20s have detached garages.... so I love this conversion and it is so much better than a musty garage!
Tia Zoldan featured In Cottage Living
Cottage Living has a major crush on Tia Zoldan and so do I! She has a fabulous eye and great taste. Aside from living in the same neighborhood, we share a love for starting with white walls/sofas and letting accents be your pop of color. Changing throw pillows is a hobby! But back to the post....
Cottage Living featured Zoldan's backyard (her third appearance in the mag) and it brought me back to the pool house/garage idea. (It also includes some great recipes for a backyard bash, I'm dying to try the Southern Godfather recipe.......it sounds like a great cocktail).
I love the chairs and umbrellas!
My favorite combination of colors....
Tia you are going places! I can't wait for your website to be up and running. If I run into you on Larchmont and invite myself to your next poolside soiree, don't think I'm a wierdo, haaa :)

I'm thinking of volunteering to build her Web site just so that I can look at it, haha. I join you in shameless crushing.
love your blog, BTW!
gorgeous shots!
where is that bombay and coral colour combo photo from?
I'd love to see it full size!
I love Tia too. Just wondering if the article expressly mentioned that she converted her garage?
Anon- Yes it did, on pg. 94 in the latest Cottage Living......
Her website is finally up!!!
