Kendall Harris (below), a reporter for Shaw TV contacted me last week to ask if I’d like to participate in a series she was working on called ‘Beating the Winter Blues’.

Wednesday when we arrived at my clients home in Burnaby to shoot the spot, it poured rain that day. Something we can pretty much count on most days here in Vancouver.  Check it out, you haven’t seen this space on my blog yet (it’s 2 minutes not 16 I need to figure out how to cut it off):

    Hi Maria,
    Another great blog, thank you! I was wondering if you could post any “before” pictures of that beautiful living room you designed.

  2. Fran Worrall says:

    Congratulations, Maria! What a great interview.! And you look so colorful in your yellow and orange!

    Hi Vered,
    I was actually hired to help them choose finishes for their kitchen renovation initially and there was always piles of furniture in that living room, so when we got to deciding it would be decorated I just forgot. I ALWAYS take before photos and in this case I did not take a single one.

    Maria,
    If you call The Express producers they will probably be able to supply you with a link to just your segment for your website. In some markets you may have to pay for the link, a flat fee usually. But it will be so worth it – the clip was wonderful.

  5. Jula Cordeira says:

    Great Job! Lovely color on the walls. What color is it?

  6. Bev says:

    Maria,

    Thanks,
    Anne
