Black cows in a black field. Food is being brought in for them. Sears Point outside of Sonoma. #wildfires #sonomaraceway #desolation #sonomastrong #longrecoveryahead #sonomavalley #heartbreaking #barbaracarterdecorativearts #embracingreality
There seems to be no end...about 10 evacuation notices for a Santa Rosa and Napa in the last two hours. This fire is very near Sonoma, however., and praying it will be extinguished soon.#sonomaca #firestorm #devastating #homesweethome #somuchloss #ghosttown #winecountry #barbaracarterdecorativearts #heartbreaking

Another not so stellar photo of a patina I just did on a mirror frame... bronze base, and three different golds. #mirrorframe #bronze #golds #handpainted #decorate #embellish #artist #winecountry #sonoma #barbaracarterdecorativearts
Leaded glass entry door and transom that I designed for a gorgeous English Arts and Crafts home in Sonoma. The glass had a 3/4" bevel, and when the western sun hit the door, there were magical prisms literally all the way through to the back porch. It is truly a living thing! If you stood in the right place, you could have rainbows on your cheeks! #artsandcrafts #leadedglass #giftshelf #design #beveledglass #glasswork #englishartsandcrafts #sonoma #newconstruction #winecountry #barbaracarterdecorativearts
I love to embellish!! Not great photos, but here goes, anyway... When the HGTV Dream Home in Sonoma, sold, I worked with the wonderful new owners to redo all of the interior colors. In addition, I painted the frames on two mirrors that they wanted to keep, but make more interesting. This mirror frame was all black. The new embellishment that I painted reflected the soft yellows and black present in the room. Classic paisley! #handpainted #artist #design #mirrorframe #hgtv #colorpalette #newlook #paisley #yellow #black #sonoma #sonomaplaza #winecountry #barbaracarterdecorativearts
This is the center knob of three from a vintage buffet that I painted. The knobs (4 1/4" x 4 1/4", form a triptych of the California landscape so near and dear to me. I no longer have the buffet, but love how the knobs on their own make wonderful canvases. One day I'll find the perfect piece to put them on... Painting practical objects is such a rewarding way to add beauty to necessity! What about a landscape running through the panels of a set of cabinet doors?! #decorativepainting #knobs #triptych #embellishment #californialandscape #sonomaplaza #sonomaca #interiordesign #decor #design #artist #handpainted #barbaracarterdecorativearts
Thirty years ago tonight, in the wee small hours, before day break, this beautiful creature made her appearance in a very dramatic fashion. It is a special privilege to be the mother of Asalle. I take it quite seriously, and she brings me great joy. I wonder at her many talents, at who she really is, this extraordinary being. Always interesting. Always a lot to learn. Always a unique perspective, Always with love at the top of the list. Thank you for showing up, darling girl. I'm so very very happy it was you❤️#asalleet #birthdaygirl #nevertrustanyoneover30 #loveyousomuch #icuucsf #beautifulbaby #bundleofjoy #happybirthday #thirtymilestone #design #interiordesign #sonomaca #barbaracarterdecorativearts #youmadeit #cnexecutive #soproud
Theme for the month... no, year! We take peace for granted, most likely. I have known nothing else... but often give conscious thanks that I do not live in a war zone. Before I have a penny in my pocket, or a meal before me, I am grateful to the core of my being for that seemingly simple fact. We must be vigilant. #photoofvineburgdeli #prayforpeace #beyondfortunate #love #worldcitizen #endwar #sonomaca #interiordesign #barbaracarterdecorativearts

Just a work in' kind of day! This was the rather amusing view in my side mirror while stopped at a red light...There's a lot of construction going on now, which always means a gaggle of white trucks, but to have them all match and be lined up so neatly behind me...That was a first! Silly, everyday pleasures - keeps me sane! #newconstruction #whiteworktrucks #machoman #rearviwmirror #countrylife #carpediem #finelife #design #decorating #interiordesign #sonoma #sonomaplaza #barbaracarterdecorativearts
My, my! That explains the upsurge in visitors to my town! We are rated the No.1 small town to visit in the United States❣️It really is a marvelous place. Let's hope all of the praise doesn't go to it's head. Much of the charm has been it's unselfconsciousness... and the mix of basically nice, down-to-earth folks. Congratulations, Sonoma! #sonoma #sonomaplaza #sonomaca #decorating #barbaracarterdecorativearts #homesweethome #finelife #beautyabounds #fieldsofgold #carpediem
Throwback to a Persian restaurant, Rumi, I decorated for a family member several years ago. We had a very minimal budget, but still wanted to create a feeling that reflected Rumi's writing. Swipe to the third picture for the "BEFORE" shot! All in all, it was a fun project, and finding some fab vintage Italian sconces and a chandelier made a nice impact. Ah, memories! The food was great! #persianfood #rumi #restaurantdesign #restaurantlife #deliciousfood #decorating #sonoma #goldenbranches #birdtheme #italiansconces #barbaracarterdecorativearts
