An old apothecary bottle gets new life as a whiskey decanter, just as an old medicine 

glass gets repurposed into a measuring jigger

Small air bubbles trapped inside this vintage bottle stopper create 'perfect' imperfections

 Vintage seltzer bottles are placed along side a pair of mid-century champagne coupes

House on the Hill

A summer weekend trip in the Northern California hills...

A clear view from on top of the mountain

French doors welcome guests to their private quarters

A white piano adorns the living and dining area

A lighting fixture and assorted

crystal decanters add sparkle to

the neutral decor

 

Terra cotta tiles and large ceramic pots lend a relaxing mediterranean feel outside

Large wooden doors lead visitors into the garden area

 A fig tree grows on the edge of the property stopping short of the amazing views
