I can hardy think of a finer way to spend an hour or so before dinner than stopping in for a drink at the delightful Bellini Bar in the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc along the French Riviera. The

The delightfully eccentric gardens of Roseburg are founded on the remains of a 16th century castle, occupying a limestone ridge in foothills of the Harz. The site was acquired in 1905 by the architect Bernhard Sehring (1855-1941), who began to turn it into a true folly loosely modeled as a mock medieval fortification including turrets, drawbridges and 1600 meters of perimeter wall with embrasures. Later additions expanded the gardens across the site, were elements of renaissance, mannerist, baroque and landscape garden styles are mixed at will and combined with art deco architectural gestures. A belvedere tower, with an open air library and mausoleum grotto, is placed at the top of the site, forming the offset for a 100 meter terraced water axis or catena d’aqua, concluding in a raised plateau overlooking the countryside. A wealth of sculpture (including an army of putti) and architecture is found everywhere in the garden, which surprises at every turn and appears much larger than it actually is. This is a truly unique layout, reminiscent only of equally spleeny endeavors such as Gabrielle d’Annunzios ‘Il Vittoriale’ on Lago Garda , Dr. Peyrons villa in Fiesole , or Sir Clough Williams-Ellis’ Portmeiron on the Welsh coast.
The CanopyStair is a spiral staircase that can be installed to wind around trees using nothing but ratchet straps.

An asymmetrical, zig-zagging flight of stairs rises near the intersection of Eden Park Drive and Gilbert Avenue from the sidewalk, flanked on either side by greenery as it weaves through a hillside. This is the Cincinnati Art Museum’s Art Climb: 164 steps and nine stories high with 16 landings. The stairway also includes four “art plazas,” which CAM’s Director of Marketing and Communications Jill Dunne says are “earmarked for artwork.” (Those spaces may be filled this summer.
Our favorite stairs are the ones that are part of the garden, nestled right in to something green. We found ten we like by some of Gardenista's favorite ar

Travel to the hills of Los Angeles to visit Flamingo Estate, a hillside property with a sprawling Eden-like seven-acre garden that is unsurprisingly heavily influenced by nature and the gardens that envelope it; providing the perfect inspiration for spring-into-summer interiors.
The Eden Project, world's biggest greenhouse, a breathtaking sight of bubble-like Biomes nestling in a former clay mine.

Hit 'L' to view on large. This castle has it’s rumours. There are the stories about the man in the jeep and his accomplice on the scooter watching over this castle. The castle was built in 1860 by an marquis who lived in the town and it still is in Royal’s hands. Apparently, the owners cannot agree about a plan to preserve the heritage and therefore the place is left abandoned without having anybody to care for it. The impromptu 2 day tour with camerashy and host to France and Belgium, with some new places, a lot of travel with minimal sleep and some goals being accomplished by getting to a certain school.

With all the turmoil of the last year, it is easy and understandable that many have forgotten that we are in the Year of St. Joseph. Pope Francis gave us this gift of a special year dedicated to a universal saint, from whom many of us could learn. Sure, it can seem so small and […]

source: Crush Cul de Sac via Sherry on Pinterest With the changes going on over at Google. I found myself needing to make changes in this blog. So I have spent the better part of the day on this computer doing housekeeping...not my favorite way to be blogging...but necessary. I am sure everyone is aware of the rumors going around about GFC. It seems other blogging platforms will not be following us Blogger blogs after March 1st with Google Friend Connect. I also have become aware that Picnik Photo editing will end on April 19th. That; also run by Google, but should be available through Google + if you sign up for it. So all of this is a bit confusing, a bit overwhelming, but I have continued to read every post I see on it to make an informed decision about how to reach the non-blogger blogs and to continue to edit photos. The changes here on The Charm of Home are: I will continue to use Google Friend Connect (as long as it is available) I have added Networked Blogs I am adding Google + The biggest thing for me..I am going to start tweeting......ha source: Sunsurfer via Sherry on Pinterest Now...after 7 hours reorganizing this blog and all of my following options I am going to go tweet about my headache. I am a picture person....so maybe short tweets will suit me. Sherry I will link with:
