With much anticipation I arrived in the picturesque beach town of Porto Recanati, Italy, home to my sister Virginia, her husband Pierluigi, and my one month old niece Gianna. They just moved into a new apartment, and with a newborn and a posse of Canadian visitors, the two have had no time to decorate their place. So, although not a single piece of art was actually hung on the walls, their collection was placed throughout, creating personality and warmth in their new home.
