Hi, I'm Julie, Chief Executive Empress

of my little apple green design studio.

Welcome to my blog!

When I'm not out visiting a client or searching for just the right  product for a project, I can probably be found in my happy little studio (painted the perfect shade of green), busy drawing up new ideas for a cool kitchen or a "spa-licious" bathroom. I like to share the fun stuff I find along the way!

RANDOM NOTES FROM MY LITTLE

My collection of 2017's creative Christmas trees

Have you decorated your Christmas tree yet? Mine’s not up, but there's still a little time, right?!

Whether you need a little inspiration or a little laugh this season, here’s something fun for ya. I’ve put together my second annual Creative Christmas Trees collection, and there's some unusual ones. It’s amazing what you can do with some gutter guard or a bunch of neckties!

To start off, for my friends who are fans of the ocean, here's a nautical themed tree complete with an anchor topper and rope garland. Beachy keen! (Sorry, that pun just slipped out like that. I won't let it happen again)

And from the land of sugar plum fairies, a Suess-esque lollipop covered tree in candy colors. (Is there actually a TREE in there?!)
