As a champion of the arts, I’m always on the lookout for artistic talent. Discovering artist Jill Karlin has been such a treat that I wanted to share her with all of you, now that her work is hanging proudly on my wall!
Bonnie’s Buzzing About Artist Jill Karlin
Visionary artist Jill Karlin is one of the most talented painters I have ever met. She specializes in “House Portraits,” which are 22 inch by 30 inch mixed media heirloom paintings. They reflect the stories, history, and memorabilia of your family home, personalized just for you and yours.
“Whimsical family histories, in classic American naïve style, mixed-media painting, called “house portraits,” can be made of your home, cottage, boat, building or organization. They document your building for eternity, and make marvelous heirlooms.” -Jill Karlin

If you’re ready to preserve your family history, capture your artistic nature or bring a creative mural to life, I’d be happy to help you make it happen by putting you in touch with Jill. After your painting is completed, Jill can also make prints, cards, and souvenir items, so that other family members are able to enjoy the painting too.

For my own artwork needs, I commissioned a piece by Jill for my Florida loft! Rather than a House Portrait, I wanted to bring some color to my light uncovered wall. I’m so happy with how it turned out!

Bonnie Roseman’s BLT
Always remember my Three Golden Rules to Dress By:
After collecting pieces from the Bonnie Roseman BLT Collection throughout the years, it’s probably time to reorganize your closet space and make sure you have room for new treasures. David Hall specializes in assisting people with their organizational challenges, such as reorganizing your garage, de-cluttering a guest bedroom, and even making more room in your closet!
Here are David Hall’s Top 3 Tips for Spring Cleaning your closet!
David Hall, owner of A+ Clutter Clearing
“At A+ Clutter Clearing, we get your house in order. When you clear the clutter, you clear the mind.”
-David H ____________________________________________
Tip 1: Mindset
In order to be motivated, David reminds us we can change the way we think about our organizational task by re-imagining it with a mindset of adventure, and even discovery. It’s a chance to really take a hard look at our possessions and decide if we need something, or if we can let it go.
Tip 2: Prepare
Before you begin tackling the task of a closet makeover, David recommends preparing by setting aside a block of time, and putting on some of your favorite music. You could even get yourself a tasty treat for when the task is done!
Supplies needed: A full length mirror, one large box or bag for donations, and a trash bag for tossing items you no longer need.
Now, you’re ready to begin.
Tip 3: Rediscover
Now it’s time to rediscover your clothes, accessories and treasures. When David walked me through the fashion show process, he told me to think about what’s really flattering for our figures, lifestyles, and whether we love wearing the item. When in doubt, throw it out!
I have used David’s clutter clearing skills for my own closet, and I’ve been so happy with the results. Take a look below – this is what my closet looks like now, after David worked his magic!

Always remember David’s Top Three Tips for Clutter Clearing:
1. Mindset – Approach organization with a sense of discovery. 2. Prepare – Set aside time and motivate yourself with music or wine. 3. Rediscover – Model your jewelry and clothes to decide what stays and what goes.
I’m ready for spring!
