Patricia's design work with Religious artifacts...splendid..for "comfy home'

Patricia Hassey allard, has the "think outside the box"..in "eclectic,egdy,and functional" design's..the design..that always has your guests wondering."why didn't i think of that"..Living in Georgetown,D.C....a very upscale area, and having 2 stores, websites..for over 18 years..the trick is..if you "love it"..buy it..."display and enjoy"...shown is an early 18th century scandinavian wedding trunk, (great storage..you learn to always always compliment in older homes with simple tricks such as "antique, or ornate, blanket/wedding trunks,older homes lack closets, and storage)..I especially love..that i found this church votive top/the base..never was found..but...something i love, as the votive dates the 1920's..is that..yes display on mantel,buffet,console,as with me a most unique, expensive trunk..added with a backdrop of antique etchings,and watercolors..and its a "wow"...Many times in Georgetown, as my hubby and i sat in our living room, we noticed..that walk by traffic would always stop at our window..and gaze..or i would actually have customers, stop by, to see, what the house looked like..today, i still find that..8 years leaving now returned..amazed..by design..never thinking that a house can be more of a home..when you incorporate..the "love" of art/design, to daily living!!
