"To Carree, with love, from Wendy!"
About the Piece: Carree, my mother-in-law, has a beautiful, traditional dining room. I had a lot of latitude with the color choices for the runner as there are a few art pieces with warm golds, tans, off-white and soft greens. I thought the fabrics that I used in the runner were both traditional and elegant. The beading and tassels dress up the piece as well. When I saw that Carree did not have a runner, I was eager to create something special for her dining room.
