Pamela’s Posh Picks: Chihuly at the Atlanta Botanical Garden
Feb 28 2014 ·0Just two more days until I jet off to Atlanta for this year’s Design Bloggers Conference! I am so looking forward to seeing my blogging buddies, hearing great speakers and seeing a little slice of Atlanta. While I probably won’t be visiting the Atlanta Botanical Garden on this trip, it’s definitely on my list for a future trip. In fact, I’d love to go if they ever bring back the Chihuly in the Garden exhibit that originally ran in 2004. During this exhibit, the majesty of Dale Chihuly’s glass was showcased with the inspiring plant collections of the Garden. Sounds amazing! Let’s take a peek at this week’s Posh Picks, featuring my favorite photos from Chihuly in the Garden in Atlanta…

Feb 26 2014 ·0Here are a few fabulous things that Caught My Eye this week on the World Wide Web…
Portland, Maine: A City of Art, Design & Culinary Delights
Feb 25 2014 ·0This past weekend I spent two beautiful sunny days visiting my son, Fred, in Portland, Maine, his new home. My time in Portland was such a treat on so many levels. Today I’m so excited to share some of the highlights of my visit…
How do you know you’re in Maine? This (very tame) moose at a rest stop on the Turnpike is a good indication! I just had to take this photo:

Feb 24 2014 ·0Pamela’s Posh Picks: Prints
Feb 21 2014 ·0Snow, rain, sleet ~ seems we’ve had it all in just this past week! I am ready for Winter to be over! While I can’t change the calendar, perhaps I can help coax along Mother Nature with this week’s Posh Picks: bright and colorful PRINT fabrics that beckon Spring. I’m thinking Birds and Blooms, even if it’s only on fabric at this point! Here are my Posh Picks for Prints…
Caught My Eye…
Feb 20 2014 ·1The parade of new blog features continues with today’s post. While the title is subject to change, I plan to start doing a weekly post of links to content around the Web that has piqued my interest. Interior Design, Fashion, Art, Humor, Travel ~ everything is fair game. Without further ado, here are this week’s links…
Posh Peek: A Look Inside My Day with Pamela Copeman
Feb 18 2014 ·1As 2014 rolls along, I am so excited to present the latest new feature on the Posh Palettes blog ~ Posh Peek! In this new feature, we will be giving you a ‘Posh Peek’ into the day of a different creative professional each month. On the agenda so far (fingers crossed): interior designers, bloggers, an artist, a chef, a personal trainer and a life coach. We hope to spotlight their various activities during a typical professional day ~ along with a few background and “curious” questions a la James Lipton from Inside the Actor’s Studio. To kick things off I thought it only fitting that I let you have a peek inside my day. Here we go!…
A Poem & A Painting: The Music Room
Feb 17 2014 ·1My son Freddy is a musician and it’s hard to remember a time when my home didn’t have a piano. Listening to my son play is one of my greatest pleasures…

Styling Tables for a Valentine’s Day Dinner Party
Feb 11 2014 ·0I got the best phone call the other day from a my favorite client of mine, G. The task? Styling two tables for a Valentine Dinner party ~ YES! Have I mentioned that Valentine’s Day is my favorite holiday of the year??…
My next step was to gather information about the fete: number of guests (18!), serving style (buffet) and location of the dining tables (dining room & kitchen). I was already very familiar with the house because G and I have collaborated on several projects so I knew the color palette and her style.
A Poem & A Painting: Three Little Kisses
Feb 10 2014 ·0This week brings us Valentine’s Day. Such a sweet and magnificent Holiday ~ truly my favorite!
Seriously, can you imagine that there is a day set aside for Love? I just adore the idea that on this day anyone has the opportunity to tell a friend, a child (small or large), a lover, a husband or wife, or a special someone that you care for them, that you couldn’t live without them, and that your life is better because they are in it.
Pamela’s Posh Picks: Shiny, Sparkly Hearts
Feb 07 2014 ·0After an extended break, my Pamela’s Posh Picks feature has returned! Just in time for Valentine’s Day, this week’s selections feature the ultimate symbol of love…with a Posh twist of course. Here are my Posh Picks for Shiny, Sparkly Hearts!
Chocolate Lover’s Class at Ralph’s Wine & Spirits
Feb 06 2014 ·0Ralph’s Wines and Spirits is a gem of a local business offering libations, classes and tastings at their Hingham shop. At Ralph’s, their guiding principle is that “wine, beer and cocktails are all better enjoyed when accompanied by great food!” Their goal at Ralph’s “isn’t just to sell you our product, it is to educate you on it, taste you on it and hopefully introduce your palate to nothing it has ever experienced before!”
I was the lucky recipient of the gift of a Corks & Forks class at Ralph’s by my dear friend G. Along another sweet friend, D, we attended the Chocolate Lover’s Class, conducted by Nicole Coady, owner of Fixx Chocolates and sommelier Ralph Herson. Oh, did we have fun!
A Poem & A Painting: Pears
Feb 03 2014 ·0While the calendar may have flipped to February over the weekend, it is still the beginning of the New Year for Pamela Copeman Design Group. With the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge completed for January, it’s time to shake things up a bit! I’ve been hard at work behind the scenes with my team and we’ve dreamed up some new features for Posh Palettes this year which I am excited to be introducing over the course of the next couple of weeks…
