| A
Decorated Studio It's
no secret that interior decorating and home improvement have become hot topics
over the past few years. From the myriad of do-it-yourself books to the craze
that began with shows like "Trading Spaces" and "While You Were
Out," fixing up our homes has become a national obsession. And, we're proud
to say that Rossi Studios has jumped right on board. Moving
into our new space proved to be a huge task, but the real fun started once all
the boxes were emptied and the files had been organized. The artwork began to
find its way onto the walls and the sculptures soon came out of hiding. Whimsical
creations now fly across the rooms and licensed products can be found everywhere
from the backyard to the kitchen. We are finally beginning to feel like this new
studio has been truly Rossi-ized. Now, we invite you to take a peek into the world
of Karen Rossi. Come and explore our latest and greatest home improvements!
Springing
Sprites
Karen's Flower Fairy garden stakes by Exhart flit across
the backyard, adding a touch of whimsy to the lawn.
Guest
Room: Before
This room deserved much better than the pink carpet
and dreary wall color. We decided to spice things up a bit. 
Guest
Room: After
Karen has always dreamed of creating a blue and white
bedroom. She got her wish with this guest room. Her grandmother's antique headboard
and Karen's New York City wall sculpture have been given a perfect home in this
cozy space.
Inspirational
Spot
Karen's church sculpture was the one piece that Rossi Studios'
employee, Heather, really wanted in her office. Placed right above her drafting
table, it adds the perfect source of inspiration as she works on new art pieces
and illustrations.

Living
Room: Before
We knew that the red carpet and 70s wallpaper had to
go! The carpet was pulled up to reveal natural wood floors, and the walls were
transformed with a unique mustard color.
Living
Room: After
As one of the homiest spots in the studio, the living
room is now a perfect spot to sit and relax. Karen's metal sculptures adorn the
walls, and her Peking Handicraft tassels add some pizzazz to the curtains.
Working
Away
Karen writes some
notes in her Tide-Mark note cards. On her shirt, you can spot one of the new pins
that has just recently been released by Roman. Keep checking the e-store for these
pins to become available for purchase!
Cooking
in Style
The
redecorated kitchen is the perfect place for cookin' up goodies. Heather looks
like she's ready to whip up a batch of cookies or sweets, as she's all decked
out in Karen's Pastry Chef apron (by Peking Handicraft).
Right
at Home
Karen's
Peking Handicraft oven mitt is the perfect touch for this kitchen!
