We love to entertain here in Aspen. We like a casual but sophisticated ambience. I am always looking for ideas to mange guests but not micro-manage. As the hostess, I am always concerned that everyone gets to taste all the hors devours;

I found that my guests don’t reach across the table; they would only eat what is in front of them.

THE SOLUTION... Let’s bring back the Lazy Susan.

NEXT CHALLENGE…. After searching and googling, the styles were, uh … lets say… 1950s and brown

THE ANSWER… Into my studio I go, to create Lazy Susans with an exceptional design, style and sophistication, pieces that have the global modern aesthetic of Andi-Le. carved and embellished. 

They are definitely not your mother’s lazy susans. And they are NOT SO lazy. 3 collections (so far) and more to come.

New Collection Andi-Le Aspen

My emersion in the studio this summer caused me to go dark in the blog and social media world. Between commissioned pieces, creating a new line of serving ware, and enjoying Aspen and my horses, the days went by quickly! I have had to reorganize and prioritize my aspirations. As an artist, I want to play. As a businesswoman, I need to produce.  And there in lies the crux. Finding a rhythm and enjoying the ride is key!

Trying a selfie with Chiquita, I need longer arms!                                  Kayaking at Reudi.      AHHHHHH!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Andi-Le Aspen is the key to bringing it all together. One of its kind or limited production, home accessories that fill my need to create those special details that give a home soul.

Right now, I am concentrating on exceptionally designed trays created from reclaimed wood, giving each tray a deeper history while repurposing nature’s art.

 

AND…. I am very excited to launch the Andi-Le Aspen NOT SO lazy Susan Collection.

This is not your mother’s brown, wood, lazy susan!  This collection is sculptural, modern and stylish. Small editions of each design, allows me to play and create as the inspiration flows. They blend art and function perfectly. Andi-Le Aspen has a modern global aesthetic and the stamp of the artist/sculptor and craftsman. These home accents have been inspired by my lifestyle, travel, nature and a curious eye.

 Andi-Le Aspen products can be found at www.luxdetails.com Check out the whole collection! As well as the great tips on entertaining, design ideas.

With a couple feet of fresh snow, it is a winter wonderland. The really cold temperatures in the mornings have been brutal, making my barn chores a little less enjoyable. My horses had frosted eyelashes! So extra carrots and extra hay are on their menu.

 

 

From Our Home to Yours, Wishing you a happy and creative holiday season,

til next YEAR

Bespoke vs Mass Produced Furniture

Finding the right piece, in the right size, in the right tone, with the right elements, can be down right tough. And can leave a bare space in your home for longer than you intended and never being quite finished or quite right.

 While buying either a custom pieces or a mass produced piece can be beautiful and exclusive. The exclusivity is in the process not the design.

 As a designer and maker, I am moved by a desire for authenticity and pieces genuinely inspired by the maker. I like knowing the hands that touched it, the history, the story and the soul of a piece.

I encourage everyone to find artists and craftsmen that resonate with you. Get involved in the process and create something fresher and more alive.

 A home is more than a place to rest your heads. Beautiful objects have the ability to transform. Your home is the best representation of who you are, what you like and how you live.

So my passion is to help you LIVE CREATIVELY!
