I think it is wonderful that you have chosen to turn your home into an exquisite piece of artwork.  Designing spaces in the Tuscan style will create an ambiance that will take you and your visitors’ breath away.  You are about to discover a whole new surrounding that you never knew you could create.  I’m going to provide you with tips and strategies.  Many that you can do-- yourself!

You know, I have such passion for the beauty of Tuscany and am grateful for Tuscan Home 101.  So many wonderful things are happening.  Many great people I am meeting; excited homeowners like you, are what also inspire me.  Tuscan Designer, our complementary Tuscany style home décor and design newsletter, provides additional Tuscan décor tips, products and resources straight to your email inbox.  If you are not subscribed to our Tuscan Designer, and you would like to sign up for some of my best Tuscany design tips and ideas for free, you can do so by clicking here.

In the recent months, people have emailed me inquiring about a downloadable version of the Tuscan Home 101 tips.  Well, I’ve listened, and have created a Tuscan Home eBook just for you! I’ve added some of the material from the Tuscan Home 101 website, in addition to TONS and TONS of new and individualized room décor tips and ideas!

Some of the pictures of the Tuscan spaces in this book are of the Montaluce Winery and Estates.  I am so honored to be able to add them to Tuscan Home 101.  They are located here in Dahlonega, GA., U.S.A.  Montaluce is actually a recreation of Tuscany!  There are brand new homes being built for homeowners who wish to feel the ambiance of Tuscany every time they arrive at home.  It has a fantastic winery and an amazing restaurant.  Be sure to find their link in the Resource section of this eBook.

The more I engaged in my passion for Tuscan interior design, the more that it made the most absolute sense to design my life in a way that enables me to spend as much time as I want in Tuscany.

Other photos included, are the work of Tuscan Interior Designer, Flora, who also will be featured in an upcoming issue of Florida Design Magazine.  She is an amazing person and a talented decorator.

I could never write a book without including the work of a fabulous Tuscany photographer named David Swerdlow.  Amazing work as you will see.  Be sure to visit his website by clicking on his pictures labeled “Images of Tuscany”.  It will take you right there.  Browse his site- believe me when I tell you- you are going to find tons of fascinating images of Tuscany.  Put one of those pictures in your home and you will be in Tuscany every time you look at your picture!

As you will soon discover, we will be using the lavish essence of Tuscany to bring warmth and comfort to the desired areas of your home.  I have especially designed this book to give you specific tips, for each room in your house.  I have even added a bonus!  My design ideas for your HOME THEATRE!  Yes, I said it!  I’m going to show you some creative ideas to transform a home theatre into a Tuscan theatre!

So, sit back and relax, as you scroll through the pages of this Tuscan Design guide.  Take your time; use the tips as a platform.  Think of this as a foundation for your creativity.  My goal is to share what I love and enjoy with you; the art of Tuscan Interior Architecture and Design.
