Highlights of America
In New York I visited the Russian Tea Rooms with Melissa Riche, who is doing PR for us in North America. It was her idea and what a great idea it was!
It was started in the 1920s by members of the Russian Ballet and since then has been a mecca for entertainment people - Madonna worked there as a coat check girl , it's in loads of films and Rowan Atkinson got married there etc etc....

Red leather seats, deep green walls and blingy gold
Great Russian paintings on the wall.
We drank vodka and ate black bread.
Delicious!

I was struggling with what to do to the ceiling in the powder room at the new studio...your pics sparked a grandiose idea! I'm going to use silver gilding wax all over it. Lovely how it looks lit-from-within, don't you think? Thank you, Miss Annie Sloan :0)

DO YOU HAVE to drink vodka to appreciate the Bling? If so, fine - just asking. Seriously - thanks for the share ANNIE!!
ReplyDeleteHahaha!
DeleteI think the vodka - which was the nicest tasting I have ever had, is a must!!
So much atmosphere - love it! Thanks for sharing - it goes on my list of places to visit!
ReplyDeleteReminds me of my stay in St. Pete after high school! Black bread every meal! It's fun to see such vibrant colors used--they are so intimidating for us beachy types. ;) tahnks for sharing jess
ReplyDeleteI have never been there either, so will have to try to go next time! Over the top decor! I love the history. This always makes a place so memorable.
ReplyDeleteWhen I moved from NYC to Colorado a few years ago, the Russian Tea Room had closed. I am thrilled to hear it has reopened it's doors. I have dined there many times. We are receiving our first shipment of paint today--on the shelves tomorrow. Wish us luck!! Your newest LRP, Simpler Times Designs, Parker Colorado. Thanks for your inspiration, Annie.
