I have long been a fan of Michael Devine's whimsical fabrics and playful designs. My husband and I first meet Michael and his partner Thomas Burak in Paris during the January 2008 Maison & Objet. After a long, leisurely dinner followed by a few glasses of absinthe we were invited to New York for Thanksgiving. Over the past two years Michael and Thomas have become close family friends. Before heading home, I spent last weekend in Kinderhook, New York with two of my favorite men.Michael and Thomas pulled out all the stops including a cocktail party in my honor. Michael recently created a wonderful assortment of signature trays that were used for passing hors d'oeuvres during the party. His adorable trays were a big hit with everyone last Saturday and they are now on his website, just in time for the holidays. And, best of all, standard shipping is free! You can see the cute tray in question and photos from the party below.
On Sunday we sat down before dinner and talked about fabrics, cooking and holiday entertaining. Listen here.
The cute pea pods are also available from Michael Devine Home

great conversation. gotta love the fact that Michael classifies a cocktail party as a meal.
I like what Christopher had to say! Many times cocktail parties make for fab dinners - lol. I love the images you provided, the warm lighting and vantage point of the lens made me feel so cozy, so gorgeous.
The trays are too cute and the photos great. I agree with Tina - very cozy. I may need to do a little shopping.
beautiful images
Loved the conversation! Both of your personalities came through so true and I felt like I was there with you. Love the podcasts and look forward to more of them.
Beautiful photos, I love those curtains behind the beautifully set table...
Great style and lots of warmth!
Michael is divine! What a fabulous talent. You are lucky to be running in such good company (as he is with you!).
what a great conversation! and I'm loving all of these new podcasts. it's so clear what great friends you both are.
I love the photos and I visited his website...great products!! I also appreciate that cocktail parties can be done in lieu of dinner parties, because it makes hosting so much easier!
Such an insightful conversation, we are so lucky to get to listen in.

The "Fretwork" pattern remains one of my all time favorite designs. I love how LARGE the repeat is. It offers a great visual punch.
Michael is so creative...love his fabrics, accessories, designs...all of it!
