Tile by Ann Sacks

Ann Sacks tiles are known for its artistic quality and uniqueness. Her ceramic art tiles are one of a kind. Take a look at her Blake Studios collection. These tiles are each hand made using the age-old Italian technique of Sgraffato, meaning "to scratch". No molds or dies are used to create the elaborate designs, making each tile a one-of-a-kind work of art. The three organic designs, Nautilus, Botanical and Dahlia, can be applied vertically or horizontally to create dramatic, show-stopping murals, with an individual beauty that is also striking as a backsplash or fireplace surround.

What is your horoscope?

My horoscope is Capricorn. This is what it says about me.
You make your presence known without dominating, but come across grounded, solid, and sturdy. As the "adults" of the zodiac — responsible and disciplined — you gravitate toward sensible, grown-up decor. Your sensibilities tend toward strong, solid basics (like a wooden red-toned armoire with a big sturdy leather chair) and funky accents, like an earthy leopard-print rug.
Your colors: Deeper earth tones. Slates, grays, browns, forest greens.

What is your sign?

Hot Fireplace Design Ideas

A fireplace generates feelings of closeness and romance and usually is a focal point of your room. If you want to add drama to your room, consider giving your fireplace a makeover. HGTV.com has several new ideas on how to make your fireplace stands out. My favorite is the one with the black slate and wood mantel done by Kim Myles of Myles of Style. I like the simple wood mantel resembles the table. It’s such an easy way to add character to your fireplace. I also like the rustic and warm wood tone contrast to dramatic black slate.
