My Friend, Flippa!

I’ve written about my dear friend Flippa a few times, because she’s such a great gal, with a great home that everyone raves about, a dear husband and the most adorable and charming daughter.

About a year ago, I wrote about her bathroom renovation, (click here to read about it)flip2

which many people raved about. Phillipa 014[2]And Flip’s unerring eye for creating gorgeous scenes like the one above, and the kitchen, below.flip3She’s also got a beautiful blog called The Caledonian Mining Expedition Company, which you should visit.

Flip’s an actress and she’s in a small video produced for Live Baltimore, a Baltimore PR group which encourages people to live in Baltimore, and where I worked briefly.

I love this piece because it shows Flip’s great house, as well as scenes of Baltimore including a visit to Housewerks Salvage, owned by a great mutual friend of Flip’s and mine. Take a few minutes and watch it. I know you’ll love it.

This is my friend, Flippa!

    I'm insane about the chair. What is the story behind it?

    Just added her blog to my favorites list.

    Hi Meg--She's fantastic. I love the colors Flippa has chosen for the house; she definitely has "the eye". Mary

    This is fantastic. I particularly like the portrait of Lenin in the dining room.

    Over the top gorgeous home. Love the stair hall and moldings and sliding doors. She's got a great eye.
