As soon as I flipped through this book, I ran home and got it on order. When I received my copy, I noticed a little leopard peeking out from the dust jacket. The actual book itself is a faux snow leopard! If I am to be reincarnated as a inanimate object, it would be this book!
Jan's bedrooms were what initially struck me. In fact, there was one that was so close to my own bedroom! I couldn't find a picture online of it, but the walls were a darker silver-sage with two starburst mirrors over each nightstand and two arm chairs that are the exact match to my sofa in my living room. So beautiful.

| I know there's a lot to love in this pic, but I die over the door hardware. |

| Can you believe the area rug is actually patched cow hides? It's such a fun texture against the smooth drapes and sleek occasionals. |
 |
| Not sure what the carpet is. Ocelot? Gazelle? Whatever it is, it sure is chic! |
"Glamour and comfort are not mutually exclusive." -Jan Showers
Jan added warmth and slimmer to the above entryway by treating the walls with warm silver-leaf tea paper. The same tea paper is also on the inside covers of her book!
