When I first recognized her work, I must say I was blown away and taken back by her amazing work. Malene’s work is truly a work of art. When I finally researched her work, I was so glad I did. Melene B’s work is used all over the world and used by the interior design industry leaders such as Nicole Miller, Martha Stewart, Nautica, Liz Claiborne, Nate Berkus and so many others. I was so moved by Malene’s work I reached out to her on her facebook page I had to let her know just how much I love her work. This is the reason I had to make her our weekly interior designer moment designer because I thought my viewer had to witness this amazing work just as I have. Please take a look at this astounding work by Malene B</span> <img alt=""
