Interior designers predict that white kitchens will fall out of favor in the coming year. I’m not sure I agree with that, especially when the white kitchen includes a refreshing pop of color.

We all have our favorite collections or items we like to display in our homes. It’s those little touches that give a home warmth and personality. Large wall clocks have always appealed to me. Maybe it’s because they conjure memories of overnight visits to my grandmother’s house, listening to the comforting tick-tock of her vintage…
